Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2

A 3-fold crossover bioequivalence study between Glucobay ODT (Orally Disintegrating Tablet) 100 mg and Glucobay standard tablet 100 mg

Trial purpose

To establish the bioequivalence between Glucobay ODT (Orally Disintegrating Tablet) 100 mg taken without or with water and the Glucobay standard tablet 100 mg taken with water.
