Atropine has an elimination half-life of 3 hours and a volume of distribution of 430 L. Protocol suggests that atropine is administered as a 1 mg injection and the duration of resuscitation efforts last for 19 minutes. What is the expected concentration, in units of microgram/L, of atropine in the patient's plasma 19 minutes after the single 1 mg dose?
Drug A has an half-life of 12 hours and a volume of distribution of 80 L. How many mg of drug are in the body when the plasma concentration is 0.4 ug/mL?
The elimination half-life of an antibiotic is 3 hours with an apparent volume of distribution equivalent to 20% of body weight. The usual therapeutic weight range for this antibiotic is between 5 and 15µg/ml. adverse toxicity for this drug is often observed at serum concentration greater than 20µg/ml. Calculate a dosage regimen (multiple IV doses) that will just maintain the serum drug concentration between 5 and 15µg/ml.
The drug has a hal-life of 3 hours and a volume of distribution of 100 L. The drug is administered for 12 hours at 300 mg/hr rate. Calculate the plasma concentration (mg/L) 6 hours from the end of the infusion.
An adult male (73 years old, 65 kg) with diabetes mellitus is placed on hemodialysis. His residual creatinine clearance is <5mL/min. The patient is given tobramycin, an aminoglycoside antibiotic, at a dose, at a dose of 1 mg/kg by IV bolus injection. Tobramycin is 90% excreted unchanged in the urine, is less than 10% to plasma protein, and has elimination half-life 2.2 hours in patient with normal renal function. In this patient, tobramycin has an elimination t1/2 of 50hours during...

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...
