  • Vd = D/Cp (correct)
  • Vd = Cp/D
  • Vd = D * Cp
  • Vd = D + Cp

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?

  • t1/2 = 0.7 (Vd)/ CL (correct)
  • $t_{1/2} = k \cdot 0.693$
  • $t_{1/2} = \frac{1}{k}$
  • $t_{1/2} = k^2$
