What is Pharmacokinetics?
Pharmacokinetics is a branch of pharmacology dedicated to determine the fate of substances administered to a living organism. The substances of interest include any chemical xenobiotic such as: pharmaceutical drugs, pesticides, food additives, cosmetics, etc. It attempts to analyze chemical metabolism and to discover the fate of a chemical from the moment that it is administered up to the point at which it is completely eliminated from the body. Pharmacokinetics is the study of how an organism affects a drug, whereas pharmacodynamics (PD) is the study of how the drug affects the organism. Both together influence dosing, benefit, and adverse effects, as seen in PK/PD models.
How to Calculate Area under Curve of Drug for Dosage Type B?
Area under Curve of Drug for Dosage Type B calculator uses Area under curve Dosage B = (Area under curve Dosage A/Relative Bioavailability)*(Dose Type B/Dose Type A) to calculate the Area under curve Dosage B, The Area under Curve of Drug for Dosage Type B formula is defined as the comparison of the bioavailability between two different dosage forms. The relative AUCs are used to make this comparison and relative doses are used to normalize the calculation. Area under curve Dosage B is denoted by AUCdosageB symbol.
How to calculate Area under Curve of Drug for Dosage Type B using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Area under Curve of Drug for Dosage Type B, enter Area under curve Dosage A (AUCdosageA), Relative Bioavailability (Frel), Dose Type B (DB) & Dose Type A (DA) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Area under Curve of Drug for Dosage Type B calculation can be explained with given input values -> 0.001654 = (1141/0.9)*(15/11.5).
