What is the equation for volume distribution?
What is the equation for volume distribution?
- Vd = D/Cp (correct)
- Vd = Cp/D
- Vd = D * Cp
- Vd = D + Cp
What is the equation for the rate of drug clearance?
What is the equation for the rate of drug clearance?
- Clearance = CL (Cp) (correct)
- Clearance = Volume x Concentration
- Clearance = Concentration / Dose
- Clearance = Dose / Time
What is the equation for half-life?
What is the equation for half-life?
- t1/2 = 0.7 (Vd)/ CL (correct)
- $t_{1/2} = k \cdot 0.693$
- $t_{1/2} = \frac{1}{k}$
- $t_{1/2} = k^2$
