Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

A three part study to demonstrate the bioequivalence of a single dose of the Final Market Image (FMI) of sitagliptin/metformin 50/500, 50/850 and 50/1000 mg Fixed-Dose Combination (FDC) tablet and co-administration of corresponding doses of sitagliptin and metformin as individual tablets. Subject will only participate in one part, receiving treatment A and B (Part I), Treatment C and D (Part II) or Treatment E and F (Part III).
