Required Formulas - Pharmacokinetics
| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| Bioavailability | F = 100 x (AUC extravascular / AUC IV) x (Dose IV / Dose extravascular) |
| Volume of Distribution | Vd = Amount of drug in body / plasma concentration of drug |
| Clearance | Cl = (F x dose)/AUC Cl = ke x Vd |
| Elimination Rate Constant | ke = Cl / Vd |
| Predicting Drug Concentrations | Cmin = Cmax x e^-kt ke = [ln(Cmax/Cmin)] / t |
| Half- Life | T -1/2 = 0.693 / ke |
| Loading Dose | LD = (Desired Concentration x Vd) / F |
