↵a Plasma clearance (CL) and renal clearance (CLR) following an intravenous dose of bosentan (Weber et al., 1996) or rifampicin (day 2 and day 9) (Loos et al., 1985). For the induced bosentan CL following 8 days of dosing, estimated to be 22.1 l/h based on a 1.8-fold change in oral clearance over 8 days of dosing with 200 mg of oral bosentan (Weber et al., 1999).
↵b Plasma protein-binding values were reported previously for bosentan (Obach et al., 2008) and rifampicin (Varma et al., 2014).
↵c The blood-to-plasma ratios (Rb) were reported previously (Varma et al., 2014).
↵d The in vivo estimate of CLint,uptake was calculated from the in vivo CLint,h using the CLint,passive, CLint,bile, and CLint,metab listed in the table.
↵e CLint,bile for bosentan was reported by Varma et al. (2014).
↵f CLint,metab for bosentan was reported by Varma et al. (2014).
↵g CLint,metab was calculated from the multiple-day bosentan and rifampicin in vivo CLint,h, assuming CLint, uptake, CLint,bile, and CLint,passive remained constant.
