The objectives of the study are to: * Assess the within-subject variability of the pharmacokinetic profiles of the clopidogrel and its active metabolite after a replicated single administration of 75 mg of clopidogrel in healthy male and female subjects * Assess the pharmacokinetic profiles of the clopidogrel and its active metabolite after single administration of 75 or 300 mg of clopidogrel
The total study duration per subject is 4 - 6 weeks broken down as follows: * Screening: 2 to 21 days before the first dosing * Period 1, 2 and 3: 4 days including 1 treatment day each * Washout between periods: at least 7 days between 2 administrations * End of study: 7 to 10 days after the last dosing
