Table 1.

Optimal sampling times and windows to assess melphalan population pharmacokinetics following intravenous infusion

Sample number	1	2	3	4	5
Optimal sampling time (h)	0.083	0.66	0.66	1.19	2.81
Optimal sampling window (h)	0.08–0.15	0.46–0.73	0.46–0.73	1.08–1.36	2.41–3.33

Two windows are identical, corresponding to two identical sampling times. Two samples should be taken in this window (at different times).
