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 Given Average Plasma Concentration?
Area under Curve Given Average Plasma Concentration calculator uses Area Under Curve = Average Plasma Concentration*Dosing Interval to calculate the Area Under Curve, The Area under Curve Given Average Plasma Concentration formula is defined as the product of time between drug dose administrations and average plasma concentration of drugs is given. Area Under Curve is denoted by AUC symbol.
How to calculate Area under Curve Given Average Plasma Concentration using this online calculator?
