Dear all,

If a compound is known to display a first peak around 5 hours and a second one around 12 hours, do you think a study ought to include intensive sampling to characterise the second peak as well as the first? The guidelines don't seem to mention this and I haven't come across mention of this topic on this forum. It seems that most of the time, a second peak is not expected, or the reasons for it are unclear, but when it is expected...?

Thanks,
Clare
