A/B/C
Subjects were treated after an overnight fast of at least 10 hours with single oral dose, started in Period 1 with Dabigatran etexilate 150 mg capsule: Reference (A) with about 240 mL of water and in Period 2 with Dabigatran etexilate 150 mg pellets: Test 1 (B) by sprinkling the pellets on a teaspoon of food and administered immediately to the subject, followed in period 3 with Dabigatran etexilate 150 mg powder: Test 2 (C) resolved in 24 mL reconstitution solution. Treatments were separated by washout period of at least 7 days after drug administration.
