Volunteers having difficulty in swallowing tablet. 3. Volunteers with history of a known food allergy. 4. Volunteers who have vital signs abnormalities (systolic blood pressure less than 100 or greater than 140 mm of Hg or diastolic blood pressure less than 60 or greater than 90 mm of Hg or pulse rate less than 50 beats per minute or more than 100 beats per minute) during pre-study screening and vital signs examination before check-in. 5. Volunteers having any medical or surgical conditions, which might significantly interfere with the functioning of gastrointestinal tract. 6. Volunteers who have history of severe cutaneous adverse reactions such as Stevens-Johnson syndrome and drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms syndrome. 7. Volunteers who have recent history of dehydration from diarrhoea, vomiting or any other reason within a period of 24 hours prior to the study check-in. 8.

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Reference ââ?¬â?? Scale Average Bioequivalence Approach: When SWR ââ?°Â¥ 0.294 for any of the primary pharmacokinetic parameters of rifapentine, below mentioned both the criteria must be satisfied: Bioequivalence will be concluded if the 95% upper confidence bound will be less than or equal to 0 and the point estimate of the Test/Reference geometric mean ratio will fall within [0.80, 1.25] limit. Average Bioequivalence Approach: When SWR 0.294 for any of the primary pharmacokinetic parameters of rifapentine, 90% confidence interval for the geometric least square means ratio (T/R) of that parameter must fall within the acceptance range of 80.00% to 125.00%.Timepoint: A total of 21 blood samples will be collected per period, at pre-dose 0.00 hour and at 1.00, 2.00, 3.00, 3.50, 4.00, 4.50, 5.00, 5.50, 6.00, 6.50, 7.00, 8.00, 9.00, 10.00, 12.00, 16.00, 24.00, 36.00, 48.00 and 72.00 hours postdose

MeasureTime frame
Tmax : Time until Cmax is reached. T1/2 : plasma concentration half-life. Residual area (%) : Extrapolated area [(AUC0-âË?ž - AUC0-t)/ AUC0-âË?ž] x 100. Kel : Terminal elimination rate constant. Timepoint: A total of 21 blood samples will be collected per period, at pre-dose 0.00 hour and at 1.00, 2.00, 3.00, 3.50, 4.00, 4.50, 5.00, 5.50, 6.00, 6.50, 7.00, 8.00, 9.00, 10.00, 12.00, 16.00, 24.00, 36.00, 48.00 and 72.00 hours postdose
