Questions and Answers

What is the main target in pharmacokinetics?

  • Drug delivery systems
  • Minimum toxic concentration (MTC)
  • Maximum effect concentration (MEC)
  • Plasma/blood drug concentration between MEC and MTC (correct)
  • What is the theoretical framework for determining the time course of drug absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion?

  • Pharmacokinetics (correct)
  • Pharmacodynamics
  • Therapeutic effects
  • Optimal drug delivery strategies
  • What must the desired steady-state Cp be in order to be effective clinically but not toxic?

  • Equal to MEC
  • Greater than MTC
  • Greater than MEC and less than MTC (correct)
  • Less than MEC
