Dear All, As per Guidelines for Bioavailability and Bioequivalence Studies issued by CDSCO-India, intervals between sampling time points used to calculate the terminal elimination rate constant should not be longer than the half life of the study drug. Any reason behind this?? Regards, Naren |

Dear All, I use for calculation of elimination coefficient not less than three non-zero meanings of a concentration. Its very interesting for me why "the terminal elimination rate constant should not be longer than the half life of the study drug"? Give me links, please. |
