An Open-Label, Definitive Bioequivalence Study to Compare the Pharmacokinetics of the Simvastatin, Nicotinic Acid, and MK0524 (Laropiprant) Components of a Formulation of MK0524B With That of Zocor™ and MK0524A Tablets
In Brief
A Phase 1 clinical trial evaluating MK0524B (ER niacin (+) laropiprant (+) simvastatin), MK0524A (ER niacin + laropiprant), and 1 other intervention for Dyslipidemia. Completed, enrolled 220 participants.
Detailed Summary
