Answer
If 180 mg of a drug are administered intravenously and the resultant drug plasma concentration is determined to be 76 μg/100mL, what is the apparent volume of distribution of the drug?
236.8 L
If 160 mg of a drug are administered intravenously and the resultant drug plasma concentration is determined to be 27 μg/100mL, what is the apparent volume of distribution of the drug?
592.6 L
Four hours after intravenous administration of a drug, a patient was found to have a drug plasma concentration of 60 μg/mL. Assuming the apparent volume of distribution is 10% of an average body weight of 90 kg, calculate the total amount of drug present in body fluids four hours after administration.
540 mg

The area under the serum concentration-time curves (AUC) were measured after single doses of 10 mg of a new antihypertensive drug were administered in hypertensive patients.
The results were as follows: intravenous bolus AUC = 8500 mg . h/L, oral capsule AUC = 500 mg . h/L, oral liquid AUC = 830 mg . h/L. What is the bioavailability of the oral liquid?
0.098 or 9.8%
What is the plasma concentration of a drug when 200 mg is given by IV bolus to a 65kg patient if her volume of distribution is 16 L/kg.
0.192 mg/L
What is the plasma concentration of a drug when 900 mg is given by IV bolus to a 100kg patient if her volume of distribution is 7.7L/kg.
1.169 mg/L
What is the plasma concentration of a drug when 700 mg is given by IV bolus to a 220lb patient if her volume of distribution is 35 L/kg. (Please note that 1kg = 2.2lb)
