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 Dosing interval given average plasma concentration?
Dosing interval given average plasma concentration calculator uses Dosing Interval = Area Under Curve/Average Plasma Concentration to calculate the Dosing Interval, The Dosing interval given average plasma concentration formula is defined as the integral of the concentration-time curve per average plasma concentration of drugs. Dosing Interval is denoted by Τ symbol.
How to calculate Dosing interval given average plasma concentration using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Dosing interval given average plasma concentration, enter Area Under Curve (AUC) & Average Plasma Concentration (Cav) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Dosing interval given average plasma concentration calculation can be explained with given input values -> 0.066 = 1320/20000.
