a

95% CI obtained with the sampling importance resampling technique using PsN software.

b

Allometric scaling used for CL, Vc, Vp1, Vp2, Q1 and Q2; typical values reported for the median weight (55 kg), FFM (42 kg) and fat mass (13 kg) as reported in Table 1.

c

Estimate of the additive error was not statistically significant from the lower bound (LLOQ/2) and was thus fixed to that value.

d

Inhibitory effect of clofazimine on P-glycoprotein using an exponential maturation function (described in the Supplementary data).

e

Between-subject variability and between-occasion variability were assumed to be log-normally distributed and reported as approximate %CV.

f

Derived parameters outside the estimation software: calculated for the typical male and female median values as reported in Table 1.
