Weight of the patient is 90kg
Average steady state concentration(desired peak concentration of drug ) Cp = 5mg/L
Bioavailability (F) of the drug is 86%
Clearance is 0.08 L/hr/kg
Calculate the maintenance dose :
Formula : MD = CpCL/ F
= 5mg/L × 0.08L/hr/kg ÷ 86
= 5 mg × 0.08 /hr /kg ÷ 86
= 0.0046 mg /hr/kg
you need to calcukate a maintenance dose in mg for oatient (90kg) to target an average...
Drug A has a Vd of 0.65 L/kg. If target concentration TC = 20 mg/L, what is the appropriate loading dose for a 90kg patient? Why would you want to use a loading dose?
7. Smokers are known to have about 50% higher CL than nonsmokers for theophylline. If the average observed AUC after administration of 300 mg IV theophylline in nonsmokers is 100 mg.hr/L, what is the expected AUC in smokers after administration of the same 300 mg dose? Theophylline undergoes linear pharmacokinetics 2. After administration of a single 400 mg dose of a drug, a linear plot of the serum concentration-time prorile on a semi-log graph paper showed a y-intercept of 1mg/mL...
A 90 kg man was administered a 0.044 mg/kg dose of lorazepam by iv bolus for pre-operative sedation. A plasma concentration of 0.066 mg/L resulted after the administration was complete and was 0.0165 mg/L 20 hours later. What is the VD .ke dose . 1112 the number of half-lives that have elapsed and clearance
Azithromycin is sometimes prescribed for community acquired pneumonia as 500 mg PO on day 1 then 250 mg PO on days 2-5. You are asked to evaluate the possible maximal lung concentration of azithromycin after the final dose according to these dosing instructions in a male patient who weighs 158 lb. A report in the literature stated that azithromycin lung concentrations are 1030% of azithromycin blood concentrations. Assume azithromycin has an elimination half-life of 53 hr, an absorption half-life of...
can anyone help me solve this pharmokientics question Part 1 of 2 12. A steady-state plasma concentration of 25 mg/L v by IV infusion to healthy volunteers (average weight, 75 kg) at a rate of 7.5 mg/kg/hr for 6 hours. Calculate the total body clearance of this drug. A. 12.5 L/hr B. 22.5 L/hr C. 42.5 L/hr D. 62.5 L/hr was measured when a drug was given Part 2 of 2 13. (A steady-state plasma concentration of 25 mg/L by...
2. Steady State concentration 3 hours after last dose A patient receives a 1000 mg dose of an antibiotic every 6 hours by repetitive IV injection (ouch!). The drug has a Vo of 20 L and an elimination half-life of 3 hours. Ct (post ss) = xon-e-ke x e-kt
A drug that fully saturates the intestinal transporters required for its absorption necessitates 2.5 hours to be completely absorbed after administering a 100mg dose orally to a volunteer. Once absorbed, the drug has rapid distribution in the body. A 50 mg dose of the drug administered by IV bolus to the same volunteer (in a separate research session) results in plasma concentrations of 1800 ug/L at time 0 hr and 1150 ug/L at time 3.0 hr. If a patient with...
You want to achieve a particular plasma concentration of a drug of approximately 81 mg/L in a 70 kg adult male. You know that the total volume of distribution for this drug is ~9L. What dose of drug should you give? (Choose the closest approximate value.) 5670 mg 729 mg correct 10 mg 9 mg In order to achieve the same plasma concentration of the above drug in an adult male who is obese (weighing 125 kg) but otherwise healthy,...
Mrs. Robinson is 75-years-old and weighs 110 kg. You attempt to determine the optimal maintenance dose. Your target serum concentration is 54.7 ug/ml, bioavailability is 0.86, CL = 19 ml/H/kg, and Vd = 1.6 L/kg. The standard dosing interval for this drug is 12 hours.
Calculate the amount of medication you need to give the dose to the patient. include the correct units. Patient weight: 50 lb Ordered: 150 units/kg IV every morning Label 2,500 units/ml 6 fl oz = __________ ml 1.5 quarts = __________ fl oz 4 tsp = __________ ml 3 gr = __________ mg How much of a 1:15 solution would you need to measure to provide a 500 mg dose? How many mg of drug is contained in 50 ml...
