About Clinical Pharmacokinetics From The Beginning: A
The majority of pharmacokinetics textbooks tackle the subject from a theoretical and mathematical perspective and particularly for the beginner, this can be rather abstract. This book however, takes a much more practical approach. Following a general introduction to the principles of pharmacokinetics, the textbook moves on to summarise how clinical pharmacokinetic studies are carried out and how data are acquired. The authors construct tables of drug-concentration versus time data for a fictional example drug they have called Pretendalone and then use those data to calculate pharmacokinetic parameters which are then statistically presented. In this way the authors build a pharmacokinetic profile of Pretendalone, providing a template that can be applied to virtually any other drug. Intended for those just starting out in Pharmacokinetics, calculations are explained in detail as well as what the parameters tell us about the behaviour of a drug and how this information is used practically in dose setting and in drug development. Pdfs of Figures, Tables and Equations are available from an accompanying website.
