An athlete tested positive for Methylhexaneamine in urine with a level of 0.90 µg/mL. At her appeal in the Court of Arbitration, she quotes a highly respected scientific publication that states that at levels of 1.0 µg/mL there is no performance enhancement. If the athlete’s levels are indeed below this threshold, the athlete can face a year’s suspension instead of a ban for life. Use the Estimate of Uncertainty to determine if the Athlete should be given a 1 year suspension or banned for life.

Assume that Ali (same patient in question 1) was prescribed vancomycin 1000 mg every 36 hours. After few days, Steady-state vancomycin concentrations were obtained before and after the fourth dose, and the peak concentration (obtained ½ hour after a 1- hour infusion of vancomycin) was 34 µg/mL while the trough concentration (obtained immediately before dosage administration) was 2.5 pg/mL. Compute a revised vancomycin dose for this patient to provide a steady-state peak concentration of 48 ug/mL and a steady- state trough concentration of 17 pg/mL. a. Estimate new rate constant (Ke) and half-life (t1/2) b. Estimate volume of distribution (Vd) using this equation Cmaxss + Cminss C. Calculate the new dose interval d. Calculate the new dose

When the drug theophylline is administered for asthma, a concentration below 5 mg/L has little effect and undesirable side-effects appear if the concentration exceeds 20 mg/L. For a body that weighs W kg, the concentration when M mg is present is 2M/W mg/L and the constant that measures the rapidity at which the concentration falls is T = 6 h. If a 500-mg tablet of the drug is taken by a person weighing 70 kg, after how many hours should the second dose be taken so as to prevent the drug from falling below the effective concentration? About 6 hours Once a day About 12 hours O About 8 hours
Azithromycin can be administered either orally as a slow release of active ingredients (known as extended release) or intravenously (IV) into the bloodstream (known as immediate release). Calculate the appropriate dosage of both extended and immediate release azithromycin for a 17.0 lb patient. Orally administered extended-release azithromycin dosage for a child is 60 mg per kg of body weight. Calculate the dosage in mg of azithromycin for a 17.0 lb child. IV administered immediate-release azithromycin dosage for a child is 10 mg per kg of body weight. Calculate the dosage in mg of azithromycin for a 17.0 lb child.

An 84 year old male patient has been given a loading dose of digoxin of 298 micrograms in divided doses by intravenous infusion. He has a creatinine clearance (Ccr) of 34 ml / min. What is the maintenance dose (in micrograms) that this patient should receive? Round your answer to the nearest whole number. Use the formula provided to calculate the maintenance dose. Maintenance Dose = Peak body stores x % daily loss 100 Where: Peak Body Stores = Loading Dose % Daily Loss = 14 + Creatinine clearance (Ccr) 5
