Brief summary

The study will be performed as an open-label, randomised, single-dose, two-sequence, four-period replicated crossover design. A total of 72 Japanese healthy male subjects will be randomised to 2 groups. The subjects are administrated either T80/A5/H12.5 mg FDC tablet once or T80/A5 mg FDC tablet and hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) 12.5 mg tablet once in each period. The length of admission will be 7 days in each period.
