AUC(0-tz) of Unconjugated Rotigotine
The AUC(0-tz) is the area under the plasma concentration- time curve from zero up to the last analytically quantifiable concentration.
Time frame: Pharmacokinetic samples were taken predose, after 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24 (before patch removal), 25, 26, 28, 30, 32, 36, 40 and 48 hours after patch application
