Values (mean ± SE) marked by different letters in the same row indicate a significant difference (P < 0.05).

1)

Tmax, maximum drug concentration time.

2)

Cmax, maximum plasma concentration.

3)

AUC, area under the blood concentration curve from 0 to 48 h.

4)

Analysis of variance is used to detect the differences in means.
