  1. a In Caco-2 experiments, the used drug concentration reported in Collett and coworkers[38] are 7.5 μM for saquinavir, 20 μM for verapamil and rifampicin, 30 μM for paclitaxel and digoxin, 40 μM for topotecan, talinolol and UK 224,671
  2. b In in vivo experiments, the dose administered to mice reported in Collett and coworkers [38] are 10 mg/kg of paclitaxel, 0.2 mg/kg of digoxin, 5 mg/kg of saquinavir and rifampicin, 2 mg/kg of UK 224,671, and 1 mg/kg of topotecan. Doses of verapamil and talinolol were not available.
  3. c pH 7.5 used in Caco-2 experiments[38]
  4. * No secretion; ** assuming that RAUC reflects plasma ratio[38]
