Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Baseline Corrected Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Cmax[Adj]) of Levothyroxine Sodium
Pre-dose, 24, 36, 48 and 72 hours post-dose

Cmax was obtained from plasma concentration time curve. Maximum plasmatic concentration observed adjusted by basal level correction was reported.

Baseline Corrected Area Under The Plasma Concentration-time Curve From Time Zero to 72 Hours (AUC0-72 [Adj]) of Levothyroxine Sodium
Pre-dose, 24, 36, 48 and 72 hours post-dose

The AUC 0-72 was defined as the area under the plasma concentration versus time curve from time zero (pre-dose) to 72 hours post-dose. Area under the plasma curve from time 0 hours to time 72 hours adjusted by basal levels correction was reported.

Secondary Endpoints

Time to Reach Maximum Plasma Concentration (Tmax) of Levothyroxine Sodium
Pre-dose, 24, 36, 48 and 72 hours post-dose
Area Under the Plasma Concentration-time Curve From Time Zero to 72 Hours (AUC 0-72) of Levothyroxine Sodium
Pre-dose, 24, 36, 48 and 72 hours post-dose
Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of Levothyroxine Sodium
Pre-dose, 24, 36, 48 and 72 hours post-dose
