6) A male patient has been given a loading dose of digoxin of 1000 micrograms in divided doses by intravenous infusion. He has a creatinine clearance of 47ml/minWhat is the maintenance dose (in micrograms) that this patient should receive? Use the formula provided to calculate the maintenance dose. Maintenance Dose = Peak body stores x % daily loss100Where:Peak Body Stores = Loading Dose% Daily Loss = 14 + Creatinine clearance (Ccr)/5
After three minutes, the concentration of drug Zip in the red blood cells is 10 mmoles l-1. What is the average rate of entry of drug Zip into the red blood cells in units of moles min-1 red blood cell-1 during the first three minutes after placing the red blood cells into the bathing solution? Assume that each red blood cell occupies about 1 x 10-13 liters.
