Thanks Mittyri,
Yes I see the merits of having partial AUC up to 12 hours for the products of interest in our discussion. What I fail to understand is why only Metadate CD has AUC7-t and AUC8-t while all other methylphenidate bi-release ER products (Concerta, Ritalin LA, Aptensio, Focalin XR) use partial AUCs up to 12 hours.
Have a look at the profiles of various Methylphenidate products (ok we are looking at mean plots). All profiles show more or less similar blood levels at >=12 hours and after.

Oh well, like Helmut wrote "citizen's petition"
