Treatment and study plan

Phenylephrine HCl Extended Release

Drug

One phenylephrine HCl 30 mg extended release tablet orally

Phenylephrine HCl Immediate Release

Drug

One phenylephrine HCl 10 mg immediate release tablet every 4 hours for three doses

Primary outcomes

  1. Maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) of phenylephrine

    Time frame: 0 hours to time of maximum observed plasma concentration of phenylephrine (blood samples will be collected up to 24 hours after first administration of study treatment)

  2. Time to Cmax (Tmax) of phenylephrine

    Time frame: 0 hours to time of maximum observed plasma concentration of phenylephrine (blood samples will be collected up to 24 hours after first administration of study treatment)

  3. Area under the concentration versus time curve from time 0 to the last measurable concentration (AUC[0-t])

    Time frame: 0 hours to time of last measurable plasma concentration of phenylephrine (blood samples will be collected up to 24 hours after first administration of study treatment)

  4. Area under the concentration versus time curve from time 0 to infinity (AUC[0-∞])

    Time frame: 0 hours to time of last measurable plasma concentration of phenylephrine (blood samples will be collected up to 24 hours after first administration of study treatment)

  5. Terminal rate constant (λz)

    Time frame: 0 hours to time of last measurable plasma concentration of phenylephrine (blood samples will be collected up to 24 hours after first administration of study treatment)

  6. Terminal elimination half-life (t1/2)

    Time frame: 0 hours to t1/2 of phenylephrine (blood samples will be collected up to 24 hours after first administration of study treatment)
