Table 7.

Utilization of the Sodhi and Benet methodology [3] to discriminate clearance (CL) from bioavailability (F) changes for orally dosed midazolam (victim) and clarithromycin (perpetrator) from the study of Quinney et al. [17]

Pharmacokinetic values reported in the table are based on published average values, unless otherwise noted

AUC area under the curve, BID twice daily, DDI drug–drug interaction, IV intravenous, Refs reference, Vss volume of distribution at steady state

aRatios are calculated by digitization of published average plasma concentration–time profiles and performing a non-compartmental analysis

bRatios are calculated for each individual using published individual pharmacokinetic data; the reported value reflects the average of each individual ratio
