Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (6)

  • Apparent Clearance (CL/F) of Phentermine and Topiramate

    A Bayesian analysis was performed to derive posterior Bayes individual pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters.

    On Days 14, 28, 42, and 56

  • Apparent Volume of Distribution (Vc/F) of Phentermine and Topiramate

    A Bayesian analysis was performed to derive posterior Bayes individual PK parameters.

    On Days 14, 28, 42, and 56

  • Area Under the Curve (AUC) of Phentermine

    A Bayesian analysis was performed to derive posterior Bayes individual PK parameters. AUC from time 0 to 24 hours under steady-state.

    On Days 14, 28, 42, and 56

  • Maximum Concentration (Cmax) of Phentermine

    A Bayesian analysis was performed to derive posterior Bayes individual PK parameters.

    On Days 14, 28, 42, and 56

  • Area Under the Curve (AUC) of Topiramate

    A Bayesian analysis was performed to derive posterior Bayes individual PK parameters. AUC from time 0 to 24 hours under steady-state.

    On Days 14, 28, 42, and 56

  • Maximum Concentration (Cmax) of Topiramate

    A Bayesian analysis was performed to derive posterior Bayes individual PK parameters.

    On Days 14, 28, 42, and 56

Secondary Outcomes (9)
