Abstract
The geometric means, Cmax, of the reference and the test formulations were 696.42 and 734.06 ng/ml. The mean values of the AUC0-t and AUC0-inf of the test formulation were 2,073.03 and 2,237.37 ng × h/ml, while those of the reference formulation were 1,950.26 and 2,078.06 ng × h/ml. The geometric...

Abstract
The 90% confidence intervals for Test/Reference ratios of the pharmacokinetic parameters (Cmax, AUC0-t and AUC0-∞) of both risperidone and its active metabolite (9-hydroxyrisperidone) fell within the acceptable bioequivalence range (80 - 125%) according to ASEAN guideline. Conclusion: The two risp...
