Book excerpt: This volume is a self-instructional computer-assisted medium for active learning. Indeed, the tutorial materials included in the accompanying compact disk have received an award from the American Association of Colleges of Pharmacy for innovation in teaching. This volume and its companion CD are intended for students and practitioners in the health professions who need to comprehend the concepts and principles related to how the body absorbs, distributes, metabolizes, and excretes drugs. "...The author's reliance on active learning, his use of examples illustrating important pharmacokinetic principles, and particularly the thoughtful simulation tools he has developed make this text and its companion CD an extremely effective and enjoyable introduction to the field of pharmacokinetics." From the Foreword, Ronald J. Sawchuk Minneapolis, Minnesota Pharmacokinetics has become an essential component of all the processes involved in drug development, discovery, and preclinical evaluation, as well as with the clinical use of drugs. While this has led to the development of many highly complex techniques, basic pharmacokinetic concepts remain the backbone of all these new developments. Consequently, a thorough understanding of the basic concepts is essential before one can tackle the more involved and applied areas of pharmacokinetics. Basic Pharmacokinetics consists of two parts: textual printed materials and highly interactive computer-based presentations. Together, these provide a useful combination that makes it easy to grasp basic principles. The computer-based information is presented in a self-instructional format, which introduces concepts, utilizing highly interactive graphical presentations and simulations. It visualizes the interplay between the different pharmacokinetic parameters, observing how the change in one or more of these parameters impacts the drug concentration-time profile in the body. Uniquely and carefully designed, the learning modules in the CD closely support and complement the text, providing the learner with an opportunity to reinforce his or her understanding of the principles presented.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Knowledge of pharmacokinetics is critical to understanding the absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion of drugs. It is therefore vital to those engaged in the discovery, development, and preclinical and clinical evaluation of drugs, as well as practitioners involved in the clinical use of drugs. Using different approaches accessible to a wide variety of readers, Basic Pharmacokinetics: Second Edition demonstrates the quantitative pharmacokinetic relations and the interplay between pharmacokinetic parameters. After a basic introduction to pharmacokinetics and its related fields, the book examines: Mathematical operations commonly used in pharmacokinetics Drug distribution and clearance and how they affect the rate of drug elimination after a single dose Factors affecting drug absorption following extravascular drug administration, the rate and extent of drug absorption, and drug bioequivalence The steady-state concept during constant rate intravenous infusion and during multiple drug administration Renal drug elimination, drug metabolism, multicompartment models, nonlinear pharmacokinetics, and drug administration by intermittent intravenous infusion Pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic modeling, noncompartmental pharmacokinetic data analysis, clearance concept from the physiological point of view, and physiological modeling Clinical applications of pharmacokinetics, including therapeutic drug monitoring, drug pharmacokinetics in special populations, pharmacokinetic drug-drug interactions, pharmacogenomics, and applications of computers in pharmacokinetics Accompanying the book is a CD-ROM with self-instructional tutorials and pharmacokinetic and pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic simulations, allowing visualization of concepts for enhanced comprehension. This learning tool received an award from the American Association of Colleges of Pharmacy for innovation in teaching, making it a valuable supplement to this essential text.
