Brief summary: This study was carried out in the Clinical and Analytical Unit of the Pharmacology and Toxicology Department of the Faculty of Medicine of the Autonomous University of Nuevo León, with the aim of comparing the bioavailability (Cmax, AUC) of an oral formulation containing ibuprofen 400 mg/ Acetaminophen 1000 mg in combination with the two oral formulations ibuprofen 400 mg or Acetaminophen 1000 mg administered as a single dose, in healthy subjects under fasting conditions

Detailed description: The study design was crossover, 3 x 6 x 3, open, prospective and longitudinal, at a single dose of the combination of Ibuprofen 200mg/ Acetaminophen 500mg (2 tablets), administered orally versus each component administered individually Ibuprofen 400mg (1 tablet) or Acetaminophen 500 mg (2 tablets), with three treatments, three periods, six sequences with an elimination period (washout) of 1 week and with a number of 42 healthy subjects, of both genders, under fasting conditions. In order to compare the pharmacokinetic profile (Cmax and AUC 0-t) of the combination Ibuporfen/Acetaminophen 200 mg / 500 mg, single dose versus each component administered individually, to establish the non-interaction of the drugs in combination. Like, Characterize the pharmacokinetic parameters, Cmax and AUC 0-t, AUC 0-, Tmax, Ke and T1/2, of Ibuprofen and Acetaminophen after oral administration in a single dose. The frequency and type of adverse events with the two formulations were established.
