Statistical analysis of fentanyl plasma pharmacokinetic parameters in female and male subjects after administration of a single 800 µg fentanyl buccal soluble film

Geometric LSM*
Parameter Female Male Ratio of LSM for Female/Male, %
ln Cmax 1.265 1.337 94.46
ln AUClast 10.693 11.389 93.89
ln AUCinf 12.738 12.483 102.05
*

Values are the least squares means (LSMs). LSMs are the average of means associated with a treatment.

AUCinf = area under the drug concentration time curve from time zero extrapolated to infinity; AUClast = area under the drug concentration time curve from time zero to the time of the last measurable concentration; Cmax = maximum observed plasma drug concentration.
