Dear All,

The halflife of Proton pump inhibitors is around 2 hrs, so 10 half life sums up to 20 hrs. So for BE Study considering the washout as 1-2 days would be acceptable? As PPI influence the acid level by inhibiting the acid release from parietal cells, so would this effect the absorption of the drug if washout is kept 1-2 days.

Regards,
Jay
