Brief summary
Study to investigate the relative bioavailability of BIBR 953 ZW after administration of a 150 mg BIBR 1048 HPMC (hydroxypropylmethylcellulose) capsule versus BIBR 953 ZW after administration of a 150 mg BIBR 1048 gelatine capsule, and to investigate the relative bioavailability of BIBR 953 ZW given as BIBR 1048 MS HPMC capsule with food versus without food.
