Drug A has an ED50
of 5.1 mg and an
LD50
of 49.9 mg, while
Drug B has an ED50 of 3.5 mg and an
LD50 of 36.1 mg. Determine
the therapeutic index (TI) for each drug. Which is safer? Why?
(There is no graph or image for this question)
Homework Answers
The therapeutic index (TI)of a drug is the ratio of the lethal dose (LD) to the effective dose (ED). High TI means safer the drug is.
TI = (LD50) / (ED50)
For drug A,
TIA = 49.9 / 5.1 = 9.8
For drug B,
TIB = 36.1 / 3.5 = 10.3
Drug B is more safer. It means in case of B it causes less toxic effect and more therapeutic effect compare to drug A.

A new drug will be on shelves soon, to help treat high blood pressure. In mice, this drug (DRUG A), has an LD50 of 25 mg/kg. However, DRUG A has some competition! DRUG B is also a new drug that will be released to help treat high blood pressure. When testing was done in the lab, DRUG B had an LD50 of 100 mg/kg in mice. Based on what you have seen in the PowerPoint, and the YouTube videos, draw...

A particle moves through an xyz coordinate system while a force
acts on the particle. When the particle has the position vector
r
= (2.00 m) - (3.00 m) + (2.00 m) , the force is F
= Fx + (7.00 N) - (6.00 N) , and the corresponding torque about the
origin is T
= (4.00 N·m) + (10.0 N·m) + (11.0 N·m) . Determine Fx.
