Primary Outcome Measures:

Variance of Oral Bioavailability [ Time Frame: 1 day ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
Samples were divided between 2 groups for each dose: Group A at baseline, 2, 8, 18 hours; Group B at baseline, 1, 4, 12 hours to reduce the number of blood draws per infant. The variance of oral bioavailability was assessed to determine if further PK assessment was appropriate. It would be considered highly variable if the square root of the sum of the standard deviation squares of the area under the concentration-time curves from time zero to the time of the last quantifiable concentration (AUCT) for group A and Group B divided by the sum of the mean AUCT for group A and Group B was >1.2.

Secondary Outcome Measures:

Area Under the Concentration-time Curve (AUC) [ Time Frame: Baseline to 24 hours post dose on Day 1 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
AUC is a measure of the plasma concentration of the drug over time. It is used to characterize drug absorption. AUC was estimated from population pharmacokinetic (PK) modeling.
Apparent Oral Clearance (Cl/F) [ Time Frame: 1 day ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
Clearance of a drug is a measure of the rate at which a drug is metabolized or eliminated by normal biological processes. Clearance obtained after oral dose (apparent oral clearance) is influenced by the fraction of the dose absorbed. Clearance was estimated from population pharmacokinetic (PK) modeling.
Half Life [ Time Frame: 1 day ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
Half life is the time required for half the quantity of absorbed drug to be metabolized or eliminated by normal biological processes. Half life was estimated from population pharmacokinetic (PK) modeling.
