Equivalence test using two one-sided tests are widely used for demonstrating the comparability of treatment effects in different research fields. The method described in the manuscript aims to use simulations in Microsoft Excel to compute power for 2 one-sided tests for two groups with unequal variances.
Complying with International Pharmacopoeias
Susan J. Schniepp, distinguished fellow with Nelson Labs, and Siegfried Schmitt, PhD, vice president, Technical, with Parexel, clear up some of the confusion about what does and does not need to be complied with regarding standards set by international pharmacopoeias.
