TABLE 3

Comparison of predicted and observed DDI data (AUC and Cmax ratio)

The predicted AUC or Cmax ratio is reported as the geometric mean ratio with 90% confidence interval in parentheses; the observed AUC or Cmax ratio is the mean AUC or Cmax ratio. The AUC for simvastatin and metoprolol is AUC0-24, and for wafarin is AUC0-last.
