C Tips: The best measure of absolute bioavailability is considered to be AUC of iv. Because AUC iv is not available for this drug, the next best comparison will be the cumulative drug amount found in the urine. Because iv dose was 10 mg, whereas the oral tablet dose was 20mg, a correction factor of 2 x is needed. Cumulative amount is 20 mg injected. 9.4 x 2 = 18.8 8.2/18.8 = 0.44 or 44% 30.
