  • The subject's body mass index (BMI) should be less than or equal to 30.
  • Screening Procedures: Each subject will complete the screening process within 28 days prior to period I dosing.
  • Consent documents for both the screening evaluation and HIV antibody determination will be reviewed, discussed and signed by each potential participant before full implementation of screening procedures.
  • Screening will include general observations, physical examination, demographics, medical and medication history, an electrocardiogram, sitting blood pressure and heart rate, respiratory rate and temperature.
  • The physical examination will include, but may not be limited to, an evaluation of the cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, respiratory and central nervous systems.
  • The screening clinical laboratory procedures will include:

    • HEMATOLOGY: hematocrit, hemoglobin, WBC count with differential, RBC count, platelet count
    • CLINICAL CHEMISTRY: serum creatinine, BUN, glucose, AST(GOT), ALT(GPT), albumin, total bilirubin, total protein, and alkaline phosphatase
    • HIV antibody, hepatitis GB surface antigen, hepatitis C antibody screens
    • URINALYSIS: by dipstick; full microscopic examination if dipstick positive
    • URINE DRUG SCREEN: ethyl alcohol, amphetamines, barbiturates, benzodiazepines, cannabinoids, cocaine metabolites, opiates and phencyclidine

Exclusion Criteria

  • Subjects with a recent history of drug or alcohol addiction or abuse.
  • Subjects with the presence of a clinically significant disorder involving the cardiovascular, respiratory, renal, gastrointestinal, immunologic, hematologic, endocrine, or neurologic system(s) or psychiatric disease (as determined by the clinical investigators).
  • Subjects whose clinical laboratory test values are outside the accepted reference range and when confirmed on re-examination are deemed to be clinically significant.
  • Subjects demonstrating a reactive screen for hepatitis B surface antigen, hepatitis C antibody or HIV antibody.
  • Subjects demonstrating a positive drug abuse screen when screened for this study.
  • Subjects with a history of allergic response(s) to pravastatin or related drugs.

  • Subjects who have taken any drug known to induce or inhibit hepatic drug metabolism in the 28 days prior to Period I dosing.
  • Subjects who report donating greater than 150 mL of blood within 28 days prior to Period I dosing. All subjects will be advised not to donate blood for four weeks after completing the study.
  • Subjects who have donated plasma (e.g. plasmapheresis) within 14 days prior to Period I dosing. All subjects will be advised not to donate plasma for four weeks after completing the study.
