They shall not be used in place of lectures because lectures include extensive explanations of all the important points for KAPS preparation. We strongly advise you to re-listen to lectures, take notes and practice multiple choice questions in order to pass the KAPS examination. © 2024 Elite Expertise ELITEEXPERTISE.COM.AU | [email protected] Calculations Units to remember 1 kilogram=1000grams 1 gram=1000milligrams 1milligram(mg)=1000micrograms 1 microgram=10-6 grams (0.000001) 1 nanogram=10-9grams (0.000000001) 1 litre=1000ml= 10 dL (decilitre) 1 Litre=1000cc Ratios: If ratio is given as follows: W/W or 1% W/W then it is 1gm of solute in 100 gm of solvent W/V or 1% W/V then it is 1gm of solute in 100ml solvent V/V or 1% V/V then it is 1ml of solute in 100ml of solvent Units of pharmacokinetic parameters: Area under the curve: microgram.hr/ml Total body clearance CLT=L/hr Vd (volume of distribution) is L(litres) Peak plasma concentration Cmax=mg/L Plasma concentration Cp=mg/L Steady state concentration Css=mg/L Elimination half life t1/2 is in hr F (bioavailability) is normally expressed in % to convert it divide it by hundred to get a decimal value.
