Abstract

Drugs that provide long durations of action after a last-taken dose are said to be "forgiving," as they allow the patient a degree of latitude in the timing of sequential doses. New research, by Assawasuwannakit et al.,(1) based on exemplary methods, enriches the pharmacometric analysis of forgiveness, which for several decades had been a simply descriptive reminder that the beneficial actions of some drugs can continue for hours or days after the disappearance of detectable drug.
