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 Peak Plasma Concentration Given Peak through Fluctuation?
Peak Plasma Concentration Given Peak through Fluctuation calculator uses Peak Plasma Concentration = (Peak Through Fluctuation*Average Plasma Concentration)+Lowest Plasma Concentration to calculate the Peak Plasma Concentration, The Peak Plasma Concentration Given Peak through Fluctuation formula is defined as the product of peak through fluctuation within one dosing interval at steady state with average plasma concentration and addition of lowest plasma concentration of drugs. Peak Plasma Concentration is denoted by Cmax symbol.
How to calculate Peak Plasma Concentration Given Peak through Fluctuation using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Peak Plasma Concentration Given Peak through Fluctuation, enter Peak Through Fluctuation (%PTF), Average Plasma Concentration (Cav) & Lowest Plasma Concentration (Cmin) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Peak Plasma Concentration Given Peak through Fluctuation calculation can be explained with given input values -> 0.036076 = (0.4188*20000)+27700.
