Concentration of Drug using Volume of Distribution Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Concentration of Drug = Dose/Volume of Distribution
C_ss = D/V_d
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Concentration of Drug - (Measured in Mole per Cubic Meter) - Concentration of Drug is the amount of the drug in a given volume of plasma.
Dose - (Measured in Mole) - The Dose is the amount of drug administered.
Volume of Distribution - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - The Volume of Distribution is the parameter relating drug concentration in plasma to drug amount in the body.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Dose: 8 Mole --> 8 Mole No Conversion Required
Volume of Distribution: 9 Liter --> 0.009 Cubic Meter (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

C_ss = D/V_d --> 8/0.009

Evaluating ... ...

C_ss = 888.888888888889

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

888.888888888889 Mole per Cubic Meter -->0.888888888888889 Mole per Liter (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

0.888888888888889 ≈ 0.888889 Mole per Liter <-- Concentration of Drug

(Calculation completed in 00.008 seconds)

What is the main application of 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 Concentration of Drug using Volume of Distribution?

Concentration of Drug using Volume of Distribution calculator uses Concentration of Drug = Dose/Volume of Distribution to calculate the Concentration of Drug, The Concentration of Drug Using Volume of Distribution formula is defined as the ratio of the amount of drug administered to the apparent volume of drug distribution. Concentration of Drug is denoted by C_ss symbol.

How to calculate Concentration of Drug using Volume of Distribution using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Concentration of Drug using Volume of Distribution, enter Dose (D) & Volume of Distribution (V_d) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Concentration of Drug using Volume of Distribution calculation can be explained with given input values -> 0.000889 = 8/0.009.
