A new drug is started with a half life of 12 hours. If the drug is given every 12 hours, how many hours before the drug level in the body will reach a plateau?
Plateau level is when the drug level reaches a minimum level that is below 1.
So, there are 7 cycles and half life is 12 hours. So, total 84 hours are needed to reach a plateae level.
A new drug is started with a half life of 12 hours. If the drug is...
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?
16. Suppose that the allergy drug, Sneezebgone, has a half life of 12 hours and is excreted at a rate that is proportional to the amount present. At 8am, Declan takes one 10 mg dose of Sneezebgone, and then another 10mg dose at 8pm. Assuming that the drug is given intravenously via injection and mixed into his bloodstream immediately) how many mg of sneezebgone are in his system at midnight?
If the half-life for decomposition of a drug is 12 hours, how long (in hours) would it take for 500 mg of the drug to decompose by 10%? Assuming first order kinetics and at a constant temperature: (Assume must be numeric; round the final answer to the nearest WHOLE number)
A certain drug is eliminated from the bloodstream exponentially with a half-life of 24 hours. Suppose that a patient receives an initial dose of 15 milligrams of the drug at midnight. a) How much of the drug is in the patient's blood at noon the next day? b) Estimate when the drug concentration will reach 20% of its initial level.
