Brief summary

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the bioequivalence (BE) of Saxagliptin and Metformin from a 5 mg Saxagliptin/500 mg Metformin extended release (XR) fixed dose combination (FDC) tablet relative to 5 mg Onglyza™ and 500 mg Glifage® XR (marketed in Brazil by Merck S.A.) tablets administered together in both the fasted and fed states.
