Vc, central volume of distribution; CL, clearance; N, number of subjects in the study; BSV, between-subject variability; RUV, residual unexplained variability; CLCR, creatinine clearance calculated using the Cockcroft–Gault equation [18]; Wt, total body weight; N/A, not applicable; SCr, serum creatinine concentration; LBW, lean body weight; IBW, ideal body weight; MDRD, modification of diet in renal disease formula; N/P, not presented; Year, year of publication.

One-compartment model, therefore results represent total volume of distribution.

Denotes combined renal and nonrenal clearance model.

Additive residual error model.

Combined additive and proportional residual error model.
