Question #: 52
A 35 year old man is in your office and suddenly develops a severe asthmatic wheezing. You decide to use
intravenous theophylline for treatment. The pharmacokinetics of theophylline include the following average
parameters: Vd-35 L, CL 48 mL/min; half life 8hrs. If an intravenous infusion of theophylline is started at a rate
of 0.48 mg/min, how long will it take to reach >90% of the final steady state concentration?.
A. 0.729 hr
B. 8 hr
C. 16 hr
D. 32 hr
E. 64 hr

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
