Hi Imph,

❝ Is it right to do "7 x t1/2 mean" without taking into consideration the SD?


That’s extremely risky. You may see residual concentrations in subjects with a half life longer than the reported mean and have to exclude them to avoid carryover (i.e., if the predose concentration is >5% Cmax).

See this presentation (slides 64/65).

Every man gets a narrower and narrower field of knowledge
in which he must be an expert in order to compete with other people.
The specialist knows more and more about less and less
and finally knows everything about nothing.    Konrad Lorenz
