“…Venous blood samples were collected immediately before administration of paracetamol (baseline) and thereafter at 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80 min and 1.5, 1.75, 2, 2.25, 2.5, 2.75, 3, 3.5, and 4 h. Plasma paracetamol concentrations were measured using reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography. 16 The lower limit of plasma paracetamol quantification was 0.1 mg litre 21 . Gastric emptying was assessed by the rate of paracetamol absorption using the time to peak plasma concentration, the peak plasma concentration, and the area under the plasma concentrationtime curve.…”
