Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The peak plasma concentration of caffeine after caffeine administration (Cmax);The area under the plasma concentration-time curve of caffeine from zero to the last quantifiable concentration (AUC(last))

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
The area under the plasma concentration-time curve of caffeine from zero to infinity (AUC(inf));Time to reach Cmax of caffeine (tmax);Terminal half-life of caffeine;The peak plasma concentration of caffeine major metabolites (Theobromine, Paraxanthine, Theophylline) after caffeine administration (Cmax) ;The area under the plasma concentration-time curve of caffeine major metabolites (Theobromine, Paraxanthine, Theophylline) from zero to the last quantifiable concentration (AUC(last));The area under the plasma concentration-time curve of caffeine major metabolites (Theobromine, Paraxanthine, Theophylline) from zero to infinity (AUC(inf));Time to reach Cmax of caffeine major metabolites (Theobromine, Paraxanthine, Theophylline) (tmax);Terminal half-life of caffeine major metabolites (Theobromine, Paraxanthine, Theophylline) (t1/2)
