The values were generated using post‐hoc individual parameter values from the final model. Post‐hoc parameter values are expressed in median (interquartile range). AUCinf, area under whole‐blood concentration‐time curve extrapolated to infinity; Cday7, whole‐blood concentration on day 7; Cmax, maximum whole‐blood concentration; Tmax, time of maximum whole‐blood concentration.
