Plasma Pharmacokinetics (PK) of Furosemide: Area Under the Plasma Concentration-time Curve (AUC)

Pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters were determined from the plasma concentration time profile of furosemide using a non-compartmental method: AUCtau: Area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to the end of the dosing interval AUC (0-24): Area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to 24 hours AUClast: Area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to the time of the last quantifiable concentration. AUClast was calculated as the sum of linear trapezoids using non-compartmental analysis. AUCinf: Area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to infinity. AUCinf was calculated by adding AUClast and the value obtained from dividing the last measurable plasma concentration by λz, where λz was determined from automated linear regression of the last three time points with non-zero concentrations in the terminal phase of the log-transformed concentration-time profile

Time frame: pre-dose, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10 and 24 hours post dose

Population: All patients who received at least one dose of study drug and had evaluable Pharmacokinetic (PK) data with no major protocol deviation in at least one period were included in the PK analysis set.
