This book has been designed to illustrate the concept and practice of Bioavailability and Bioequivalence Studies and will definitely beneficial to them who are interested to proceed further in this field. India is the largest provider of generic drugs globally. Availability of the generic products in the market has been gained serious public consideration in respect of their safety and efficacy with the innovator products. Bioequivalence (BE) studies with a view to demonstrate therapeutic equivalence between two drug products (test and reference or innovator) can able to answer this public concern internationally. The aspect of bioequivalence study is not included in the syllabus of pharmacy or MBBS, this will be definitely helpful to the pharmacist, doctors and the pharma industries to have a thorough knowledge regarding this subject as well as it will guide them to establish a Contract Research Organizations (CRO) for conducting BA/BE study.
