Generic drug product development : bioequivalence issues / [edited by] Isadore Kanfer, Leon Shargel.

The assessment of bioequivalence is an important process whereby the bioavailability of a generic drug product is compared with its brand-name counterpart. Generic pharmaceutical products must be approved as therapeutic equivalents to the brand name alternative in order to be interchangeable. The de...
