Similar food effect results were observed in the above study when one metaxalone 800 mg tablet was administered in place of two metaxalone 400 mg tablets. Time-to-peak concentration (T max) was also delayed (4.9 h versus 3.0 h) and terminal half-life was decreased (4.2 h versus 8.0 h) under fed conditions compared to fasted conditions. Compared to fasted conditions, the presence of a high fat meal at the time of drug administration increased C max by 193.6% and increased AUC (AUC 0-t, AUC ∞) by 146.4% and 142.2%, respectively. In a second food effect study of similar design, two 400 mg metaxalone tablets (800 mg) were administered to healthy volunteers (N=59, 37 males, 22 females), ranging in age from 18-50 years (mean age = 25.6 ± 8.7 years).
Time-to-peak concentration (T max) was also delayed (4.3 h versus 3.3 h) and terminal half-life was decreased (2.4 h versus 9.0 h) under fed conditions compared to fasted. Compared to fasted conditions, the presence of a high fat meal at the time of drug administration increased C max by 177.5% and increased AUC (AUC 0-t, AUC ∞) by 123.5% and 115.4%, respectively. Subjects ranged in age from 18 to 48 years (mean age = 23.5 ± 5.7 years). Table 1: Mean (%CV) Metaxalone Pharmacokinetic Parametersġ Subjects received 1×400 mg tablet under fasted conditions (N=42)Ģ Subjects received 2×400 mg tablets under fasted conditions (N=59)Ī randomized, two-way, crossover study was conducted in 42 healthy volunteers (31 males, 11 females) administered one 400 mg metaxalone tablet under fasted conditions and following a standard high-fat breakfast.
