A group of 24 healthy volunteers receive one tablet of an association of levodopa 200 mg and benserazide 50 mg corresponding to two drug products: a test formulation (Evoser ®; Phoenix S.A.I.C. y F., Buenos Aires, Argentina) and a reference formulation (Madopar ®; Roche Pharma, Switzerland) to assess their relative bioavailability. After administration of each formulation 17 blood samples are taken and levodopa is measured by HPLC. Pharmacokinetic parameters (AUC, Tmax and Cmax) are compared.
