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 for Drug Administered Intravenous?
Area under Curve for Drug Administered Intravenous calculator uses Area under Curve Intravenous = (Area under Curve Non-Intravenous*Dose Intravenous)/(Bioavailability of Drug*Dose Non-Intravenous) to calculate the Area under Curve Intravenous, The Area under Curve for Drug Administered Intravenous formula is defined as the comparison of the bioavailability of the active drug in systemic circulation following non-intravenous administration to the bioavailability of the same drug following intravenous administration. Area under Curve Intravenous is denoted by AUCiv symbol.
