Table 1

Pharmacokinetic parameters of bismuth after a single oral dose of Wei Bi Mei (mean ± SD, n = 7).

Parameter	Cmax (ng/mL)	tmax (h)	t1/2 (h)	Vd (×10^3 L)	AUC0–24 (h ng/mL)	AUC0-∞ (h ng/mL)	MRT (0-t) (h)
	0.85 ± 0.55	2.29 ± 0.76	9.98 ± 5.13	196.47 ± 98.79	8.33 ± 5.42	8.43 ± 5.08	11.82 ± 6.78

C_max, peak concentration; t_max, time to peak concentration; t_1/2, half-life; V_d, volume of distribution; AUC, area under the curve; MRT, mean residence time.
