Substantial steady-state delivery of the drug at therapeutic concentrations is typically achieved within 7 days or less after implantation of the osmotic delivery device in a subject. The substantial steady-state delivery of the drug from the osmotic delivery device is continuous over a period of at least 3 months. |
