A patient received a single 245.97 mg IV bolus dose of an antibiotic and the plasma drug concentration was determined as 13.62 mg/L and 5.94 mg/L at 2.04 hours and 11.52 hours following the drug administration, respectively. On a separate occasion, a single 427.73 mg oral dose of the same antibiotic was administered to the same patient and the plasma drug concentration was determined as 0, 5.01, 5.77, 3.43, 1.1 mg/L at 0, 3.15, 7.69, 14.39, and 27.5 hours following the drug administration. Please calculate the bioavailability of this drug without utilizing any data fitting program.
