• Adequate blood and urine samples should be obtained within 28 days before beginning of the first period and at the end of the trial for clinical laboratory measurements.
• Clinical laboratory measurements will include the following:
• Hematology: hemoglobin, hematocrit, red blood cell count, platelets, and white blood cell count (with differential).
• Clinical Chemistry: creatinine, BUN, glucose, SGOT/AST, SGPT/ALT, bilirubin, and alkaline phosphatase.
• Urine Analysis: pH, specific gravity, protein, glucose, ketones,bilirubin, occult blood, and cells.
• HIV Screen:(pre-study only)
• Hepatitis-B, C Screen:(pre-study only)
• Drugs of Abuse Screen: pre-study and at check-in each study period
• Subjects will be selected if all above are normal.
• Electrocardiograms of all participating subjects will be recorded before initiation of the study and filed with each subject's case report forms.
