- MRTpo,ss (mean residence time of the analyte in the body after 12 administrations at steady state) [before and 0:30 h, 1 h, 1:30 h, 2 h, 3 h, 4 h, 6 h, 8 h, and 12 hours after last study drug administration]
- CL/F,ss (apparent clearance of the analyte in the plasma after extravascular administration at steady state) [before and 0:30 h, 1 h, 1:30 h, 2 h, 3 h, 4 h, 6 h, 8 h, and 12 hours after last study drug administration]
