A blood sample is obtained from a patient on a drug to determine the fu. After centrifugation, plasma is obtained and subjected to ultrafiltration. The concentration in plasma is found to be 3.6 mg/L while that in the ultrafiltrate is 1.2 mg/L. From this data, determine the fu for this experimental agent.

0.3

How is r related to the fraction of drug bound (fu), a term that is often of clinical interest?

r is the ratio of the numer of moles of drug bound to the number of moles of albumin. r determines the fraction of drug binding sites that are occupied. fu is the fraction of drug which is free in the plasma The value of fu is often assumed to be fixed However, fu may change as drug concentration increases, especially with drugs that have therapeutic concentrations close to Kd.

Assume a drug for which the M/p is 5 and the average maternal plasma concentration is 0.1 mg/L. Assuming the child averages 750 mL of breast milk per day, which is the approximate daily dose of the drug received by the nursing infant?

0.375 mg

A solution of verapamil is administered to the portal vein of the isolated perfused liver of a rate at a concentration of 8mg/L. After 5 minutes, the concentration that is measured at the hepatic vein is 2.57mg/L. What is the hepatic extraction rate of verapamil in this model?

0.68

What will be the rate of reabsorption if the rate of filtration is 3mL/sec, rate of secretion is 0.5mL/sec, and the rate of excretion is 2mL/sec for a particular drug?

1.5 mL/sec

TJ is a 55 year old 70kg male presenting to the emergency department with acute ventricular tachycardia. The attending physican elects to initiate therapy with lidocaine ti treat this. Lidocaine is to be administered as an IV with goal of achieving initial concentration of 2 mg/L. The ED pharmacist indicates the average VD for lidocaine is 1 L/kg. Based on this, she is able to calculate the initital dose needed to achieve this target concentration. Find this initial dose.

140 mg

A given drug is completely absorbed by extensively metabolized by the intestinal epithelium (91%) followed by extensive hepatic elimination (71%). What is expected overall oral bioavaiablilty? (math)

2.6%

A drug has a total clearance of 300mL/min and 20% of the drug is eliminated as such by the kidney. On the assumption that only the liver and kidney are involved in this elimination process, which of the following will be hepatic clearance of that drug in mL/min?

240 mL/min

What will be the elimination rate if the clearance is 120 mL/min and drug concentration is 0.5mg/mL?

60mg/min
