Figure 4

Pharmacokinetic profiles simulated for an intravenous administration of 100 mg, drug A, in the EGR model. Drug amounts in the central compartment (\({A}_{C}\)), stomach tissue (\({A}_{S}\)), liver (\({A}_{H}\)), gut lumen (\({A}_{G}\)) and stomach lumen (\({A}_{SL}\)) are plotted versus time after dose. The multiple-peaking nature of the profiles corresponds to discrete gastric emptying events taking place every 8 h after with meal intake and followed by drug reabsorption into the central compartment.
