AUC0‐t indicates area under the plasma concentration‐time curve from time 0 to the time of the last quantifiable concentration after dosing; AUC0‐inf, area under the plasma concentration‐time curve extrapolated from time 0 to infinity; CL/F, apparent total clearance; CLR, renal clearance; Cmax, maximum observed plasma concentration; Ctotal, total concentration; Cunbound, unbound concentration; CV%, coefficient of variation; Feu0‐72, fraction excreted in urine from time 0 to 72 hours postdose; Fu, serum protein unbound fraction; Tmax, time to maximum plasma concentration; t½,z, terminal elimination half‐life.
