  • ZSQ p.o., ZSQ was orally administered 40 minutes before FEX was intravenously administered. ZSQ i.v., ZSQ, and FEX were intravenously coadministered. Values represent the mean ± S.D. for three to four rats.

  • Vdss, volume of distribution at steady state. Statistically significant differences: *P < 0.05; **P < 0.01; ***P < 0.001, control versus ZSQ p.o. or ZSQ i.v.
