We hypothesize that canonical sentence schemas (e.g. Agent-verb-Patient) can sometimes assign argument structure to verbs.

A new controlled-release (CR) dosage formulation of albuterol has been developed which is suitable for twice-a-day dosing. The present study was conducted in twelve healthy adult male volunteers to compare the steady state plasma levels obtained following repeated administration of a 4 mg CR tablet (q12h) compared to a 2 mg conventional table (q6h) for 5 consecutive days. The mean steady state plasma level-time curves for both the CR and conventional tablet treatments were comparable over time and reproducible.

Albuterol, a beta-adrenergic agonist bronchodilator, was studied in 12 healthy male volunteers to evaluate the steady-state pharmacokinetics following oral administration of 4-mg tablets, given every six hours for five days. The kinetics of albuterol were best described by a two-compartment open model with first-order absorption kinetics. Steady-state plasma levels were predictable from the kinetic data and were reached by the third day of dosing (ninth and tenth dose).

Albuterol sulfate, alpha'[[1,1-dimethyl)amino]methyl]-4-hydroxy-1,3-benzenedimethanol sulfate, is a relatively selective beta-2-adrenergic bronchodilator used for the relief of bronchospasm. The bioavailability of two 4-mg tablet formulations, differing in their inactive excipients, and a syrup formulation, was evaluated. The three dosage forms were orally administered to 12 normal male volunteers in a randomized three-way crossover study.
