Ordered dose of Drug A is 200mg /day
Average steady state concentration (Cp ) is 1mg / L
What is the average amount (mg ) in the body at steady state ?
Half life of Drug A - 12hours
Volume of distribution - 130L
Bioavailability - 0.9
At steady state , rate of drug administration = rate of drug elemination
Vd = AMOUNT of drug in the body /concentration in plasma (Cp)
130L = amount of drug in the body ÷1 mg/L
Amount of drug in the body = 130L × 1 mg/L
= 130 mg of drug will be present at steady state .
QUESTION 8 The administration of a 200 mg/day tablet of drug A (t1/2-12 hours; V 130L;...
drug a (t1/2= 18 hours, v= 80l fe= 0.2 fu= 0.1) is administered as multiple 200 mg iv bolus every 12 hours. predict max concentration at steady state.
Drug-A (t1/2° 1 5 hours; V-62 L; fu = 0.1; fe = 0.3) is administered twice a day for 2 weeks. Calculate the accumulation factor at steady state.
QUESTION 4 In one patient drug-A (t1/2° 10 hours; v-55L; fu-0.1 ; fe # 0.4; F-09) is administered as two 300 mg day. In another patient, the same drug is administered as one 200 mg tablet three time a day. The two dosing regimen have the same dosing rate. O True tablets once a e False
QUESTION 12 Typical PK parameters for drug Drug-D are: F-0.01; fexs 0.4; fua 0.2; V 1.5 L/kg; half-life-3 hours. Calculate the amount in (mg) of drug in the body of a 220 pound patient at steady state when the drug is infused at 60mg/hour.
Typical pharmacokinetic parameters of DRUG-A are F-0.02; fex < 0.1; fu 0.3; V- 0.22 L/Kg Half-life 4 hours. Drug-A is administered as a continuous IV-Infusion to a patient taking another medication that is known to induce the hepatic-metabolism of Drug-A. Therefore, the time to reach steady state will: D Increase 0 Decrease O Show little difference
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.

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...
14. Gentamicin is often given in IV-bolus doses of 100 mg every 8 hours to achieve an average steady-state plasmatic concentration of 5 mg/L. The total clearance is normally 5.4 L/h in a 70 Kg-body weight person. Gentamicin is entirely eliminated by glomerular filtration. Your patient, however, is found to have a creatinine clearance one-third of normal. Your initial dosage regimen for this patient would probably be: a. 20 mg every 8 hours b. 33 mg every 8 hours c....
1. RM (65 kg) is a 78 years old-man with a heart condition. He is hospitalized and administered DRUG-A (F 0.02; fe 0.03; t24 hours; Vd 1.2 L/kg) as an iv-infusion. The effective plasma concentration for Drug A is 3 ug/mL a. Calculate the infusion rate necessary to maintain a steady state plasma concentration of 3 ug/mL. b Calculate how long it will take to reach 90% of steady state c. Calculate the loading dose. 2. After three days of...
