Dear All,

We are planing to do Bioequivalence study of Clopidogrel 300 mg Table.

I had read back posts regarding PD endpoint of clopidogrel.

As Tmax of clopidogrel is around 45 mins and is detected in the body for almost 2 hrs,
  1. is it necessary to do sampling upto 24 hrs? (Single-dose randomized, open-label, 2-way crossover bioequivalence study of clopidogrel 75 mg tablet in healthy volunteers under fasting conditions. Filipe A, Almeida S, Franco Spínola AC, Neves R, Tanguay M, Jiménez C, Shink E; Int J Clin Pharmacol Ther. 2009 Mar;47(3):187-94)
  2. Active metabolite is non-detectable and as per recommendation we have to measure clopidogrel, so is it required to measure carboxylic acid inactive metabolite? if so, why?

Thanks n regards,
Rahul...
