Hi Anu,

❝ I just need to know in FDA the accepted confidence intervals ranges are (80%-125%) & (-20% to +20%).

The acceptance range is 80.00–125.00% (90% CI in percent rounded to two decimals).

❝ I have a data for a reference product whose 90% CI is (-1.07% to -0.30%) on the CI scale of (-20% to +20%).

This doesn’t makes sense to me. Do you mean data for a test product (in % of the reference)?

❝ I want to transform it into the CI scale of (80%-125%).

❝ Can I do this?

Duno. I don’t believe in these numbers – where do they come from? In % of the reference the CI would be 98.93–99.70%. Assuming a 2×2 cross-over that would translate even for the smallest acceptable sample size of 12 into a CV of 0.52% [sic]. Simply impossible.
