RESUMO

Cyclobenzaprine is a centrally acting muscle relaxant that has similarity with a tricyclic antidepressant. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the bioequivalence of two brands of cyclobenzaprine 10 mg tablets in healthy volunteers. The procedure of bioequivalence between test product (Miosan®) and reference product (Flexeril®) was a randomized, open and crossover study. The products were administered in a single oral dose of 10 mg of cyclobenzaprine hydrochloride to healthy volunteers. Blood samples were collected until 240 hours after administration and quantified by validated method using high-pressure liquid chromatography with mass spectrometric detection. The average plasmatic decay curves of test (Miosan®) and reference (Flexeril®) products were similar ASC0-t (test: 193,00 ngxh/mL; reference: 191,66 ngxh/mL), in the same way that absorption parameters Cmax (test: 7,16 ng/mL; reference: 6,95 ng/mL), tmax (test: 4,61 h; reference: 4,48 h), Ka (reference: 0,79; test: 0,67) e t(1/2)a (reference: 1,79 h; test: 2,02 h). The elimination parameters Cl (test: 31,15 L/h; reference: 31,73 L/h), Vd (test: 1378,54 L e reference (1357,87 L), kΒ (reference: 0,08; test: 0,08), t(1/2)β (reference: 9,43 h; test: 9,20 h), kγ (reference: 0,02; test: 0,02) e t(1/2)γ (reference: 32,92 h; test: 31,67 h) were similar between products too. The multivariate analysis accomplished trough analysis of variance (ANOVA), for assessment of product, group and period effects, revealed the absence of any of these effects in the present study, indicating that the crossover design was properly performed. The 90 % confidence intervals for the ratio of Cmax(93,0 % - 112,0 %), AUC0-t(92,6 % - 111,1 %) and AUC0∞ (93,1 % - 110,4 %) values for the test and reference products are within the 80 - 125 % interval proposed by ANVISA e FDA. Statistical analysis of Cmax, AUC0-t e AUC0-∞ parameters indicated no significant difference between two brands of 10 mg cyclobenzaprine hydrochloride products. Based in the results of this study, we can conclude that the two products are bioequivalent and can be considered interchangeable in the medical practice.
