Hello for all!

I would like to confirm an information with experts in BCS....
Caffeine is a reference standard to determine the biopharmaceutical classification of other drugs according with solubility and permeability?

If yes, this is a possible reason thcat support the FDA to classify caffeine as an effective substance which there are no bioequivalence problems?

I really appreciate any colaboration ( with references, if is possible) , because I would like to understand why is not need to measure caffeine in bioequivalence studies.

Best regards.
