Clearances and volumes of distribution are apparent parameters.

Abbreviations: CI, confidence interval; CL, clearance; ka, absorption rate constant; Q, inter‐compartmental clearance; RSE, relative standard error; VC, central volume of distribution; VP, peripheral volume of distribution; θ, fixed effect; σ, random effect (residual variability); ω, random effect (between‐subject variability).

In the investigation cohort: CL/F = θCL × (1 + θSLCO1B1), where θSLCO1B1 is 0 for 521TT individuals.
