Absorption
Following a single oral dose of 300 mg to nine healthy adult
volunteers, rifabutin was readily absorbed
from the gastrointestinal tract with mean (±SD) peak plasma levels (C
) of 375 (±267) ng/mL (range:
141 to 1033 ng/mL) attained in 3.3 (±0.9) hours (T
range: 2 to 4 hours). Absolute bioavailability

capsule dosage form, relative to an oral solution, was 85% in 12
