---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
mg/kg | μg·h/ml | μg/ml | μg/ml | h | h | % | |
Intravenous | 2 | 1.28 | 0.86 | 0.08 | 2.35 | ||
Per os | 10 | 8.95 | 2.15 | 0.50 | 1.71 | 82.0 |
AUC, area under the concentration versus time curve from 0 to the last quantifiable time point.
Cmax, maximal concentration.
C0, initial concentration.
tmax, time to Cmax.
t½, half-life.
BA, bioavailability = (AUC p.o. × dose i.v.)/(AUC i.v. × dose p.o.) × 100, where p.o. represents per os and i.v. represents intravenous.
