Table 2.

Pharmacokinetic parameters for (S)-, (R)-, and (R,S)-MDPV after 3 mg/kg ip administration of (R,S)-MDPV in female (n = 5) and male (n = 6) rats. The Tmax was 5 min in all cases. This was also the first measured time point after dosing. Figure 4 shows a representative concentration-time plot after the 3.0 mg/kg ip dose in a male and female rat. See supplemental files for more details of the statistical analysis.
