Study summary

The main aim of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of the product administered, of 3 different doses. Safety will be evaluated by recording and assessing adverse events, vital signs, laboratory tests and ECG. These assessments will be conducted during the study and at the end the study, following the study schedule and evaluation times. Since it is not absorbed and considering the conducted studies, 24 h are sufficient to analyse the safety and tolerability of the product. Safety will be assessed until the follow up visit, 6-8 days after product intake, to check possible adverse effects during that time.
