  • CL, clearance; Cmax, peak plasma concentration; Tmax, time of peak plasma concentration; Vd, volume of distribution; —, V, CL, and half life were only calculated for the administered drug, CNO.

  • a Only data from sampling time points that were common to both forms of the drug were included in these calculations (60, 90, and 240 min postdrug administration).

  • b Terminal half-life was calculated using all three samples: 60, 90, and 240 min post-injection.

  • c The V and CL values were estimated from intramuscular injections based on the observed fraction of drug absorbed.
