Dear HS,
Thanks for the detailed information.
I have a question. A BE study of racemic drug was conducted for EU submission and the bioequivalence was concluded based on the measurement of racemic drug. In the study enantiomers were not measured. The BE study was approved by the several EU regulatory authority. Now one of the EU regulatory body has asked to justify why enantiomers were not measured and why BE was concluded on racemic compound???

Please help in getting out of this situation.

Regards
scorp
