Study Description

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to support the submission of Advil PM Liqui-Gels Minis (ibuprofen/diphenhydramine hydrochloride 200 milligrams [mg]/25 mg) which is a size reduction of the currently marketed Advil PM Liqui-Gels, by determining if this product is bioequivalent to the reference product Advil PM Liqui-Gels (ibuprofen/diphenhydramine hydrochloride 200 mg/25 mg) under fasting conditions.
