Summary

An accessible introduction to foundational concepts, Basic Pharmacokinetics has been carefully designed for students and others who have never studied the subject before. Exploring the use of mathematical models to predict the response of individual patients to drugs, this book features a CD-ROM that complements the material presented in the text. The CD includes computer-based presentations that use graphics and simulations to allow readers to visualize how a change in one or more pharmacokinetic parameter is reflected in the drug profile of the body. Using a self-instructional format, this text serves as a useful reference covering such topics as drug absorption and therapeutic drug monitoring.
