n = 23. Values, except for ratios and 95% confidence intervals (CI), are shown as means ± standard deviations. LSM, least-squares means obtained from ANOVA. Cmax values are expressed as micrograms per milliliter for clarithromycin and 14(R)-hydroxy-clarithromycin and as nanograms per milliliter for loratadine and DCL. AUC values are for 0 to 12 h, in micrograms · hour per milliliter, for clarithromycin and 14(R)-hydroxy-clarithromycin and for 0 to 24 h, in nanograms · hour per milliliter, for loratadine and DCL.
P ≤ 0.05 (ANOVA).
