ts,lag = shifted dose time (estimated time plus 1 h), Ka = absorption rate constant, F = relative bioavailability, V = volume of distribution, CL = clearance, fF-char = fractional effect of SDAC on bioavailability, fCL-char = fractional effect of SDAC on clearance. CL = θCL × fCL-char. F = θF × fF-char.
