Primary Outcome Measures:

Ratio of postprandial maximum concentration (Cmax) of blood glucose following sucrose load with Glucobay (Day 1) and without Glucobay (Day 0) [ Time Frame: within 4 hours after sucrose load ]
Ratio of postprandial Area under curve from 0 to 4 hours (AUC(0-4)) of blood glucose following sucrose load with Glucobay (Day 1) and without Glucobay (Day 0) [ Time Frame: within 4 hours after sucrose load ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:

Difference in postprandial maximum concentration (Cmax) of blood glucose and serum insulin following sucrose load with acarbose (day 1) and without acarbose (day 0) [ Time Frame: within 4 hours after sucrose load ]
Difference in postprandial area under curve from 0 to 4 hours (AUC(0-4)) of blood glucose and serum insulin following sucrose load with acarbose (day 1) and without acarbose (day 0) [ Time Frame: within 4 hours after sucrose load ]
Safety parameters [ Time Frame: Assessed in pre study treatment, study treatment, and follow-up visits ]
Adverse events (AEs), clinical chemistry, hematology, urinalysis, physical examination, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, pulse rate, electrocardiogram (ECG)

Arms	Assigned Interventions
Experimental: Arm 1 Day 0: oral sucrose load (75 g sucrose dissolved in 225 mL water) without Glucobay ODT 100 mg; Day 1: oral sucrose load plus Glucobay ODT 100 mg taken without water	Drug: Acarbose (Glucobay ODT, BAYG5421)
Experimental: Arm 2 Day 0: oral sucrose load (75 g sucrose dissolved in 225 mL water) without Glucobay ODT 100 mg; Day 1: oral sucrose load plus Glucobay ODT 100 mg taken with water	Drug: Acarbose (Glucobay ODT, BAYG5421)
Active Comparator: Arm 3 Day 0: oral sucrose load (75 g sucrose dissolved in 225 mL water) without Glucobay standard tablet 100 mg; Day 1: oral sucrose load plus Glucobay standard tablet 100 mg taken with water	Drug: Acarbose (Glucobay, BAYG5421)
