Abstract

Currently, bioequivalence (BE) studies are carried out exclusively in males, assuming that intrasubject variabilities are similar between the sexes. This article challenges this hypothesis on the basis of available evidence and urges that studies of BE of sufficient power be undertaken in women also for all generic drugs aimed at women.
