Amount that produces desired intensity of effect in 50% of the individuals tested.
What's median toxic dose? (TD50)
Amount that produces toxic effect in 50% of the individuals tested.
Equation for Therapeutic Index
TD50/ED50
Which one is larger...loading dose or maintenance dose?
Loading dose.
What's prophylactic dose?
Amount of drug to protect the patient from contracting a specific disease. e.g.) vaccines.
What's therapeutic dose?
amount of drug to counter a disease after exposure or contraction.
drops in 1 mL?
20
1oz = mL?
29.57mL
5% w/v = g/mL?

BSA is used for what types of patient?
1. Pediatric
2. Chemotherapy.
What's average BSA for an adult?
1.73m^2
How to calculate patient's dose with BSA?
Patient's Dose = (Patient's BSA / BSA)*(Drug Dose)
how to calculate BSA?
sqroot [(cm * kg) / 3600]
How many units / mL are in a U-100 insulin?
100 units / mL
How should non-isotonic solution be injected?
- Slowly and in small volume.
- Never in large volume.
What's molality?
mol of solute / kg of solvent
What's Kf constant?
1.86 degree/mol/kg for water.
What is E?
NaCl Equivalent
What is formula for NaCl equivalent?
(mw NaCl / i NaCl ) * (i of drug / mw of drug)
What is g/mL of an isotonic NaCl solution
.9 g/100mL = .009 g/mL
(g of drug * E) / .009 determine what?
Volume of water needed to make isotonic solution.
isotonic solution freezes at what temperature?
-0.52 degree
How to calculate buffer capacity?
amount of acid or base added / change in pH
For blood, what is the primary and secondary buffer?
Primary: plasma
Secondary: RBC
T/F. You want to avoid using highly buffered solution.
True.

- 1500mL / m^2
- 2500mL
- 32mL/kg
What's an IV push?
rapid infusion of a medication are given into a vein
How many drops are in a microdrip, macro drip, and a standard drip.
‘microdrip’ (60 drops/mL)
‘macro drip’ (10 drops/mL)
‘standard drip’ (15 drops/mL).
What's the difference between enteral and parenteral nutrition?
Enteral: tubes inserted into stomach/small intestine.
Parenteral: IV
central vs. peripheral IV line
Central: superior vena cava; hypertonic solution
peripheral: veins of arm/hand; requires adjustment of tonicity of IV solution.
Standard nutrition requirements for carb, protein, and fat.
carb: 4 kcal/g

NO! non-protein calories
What's normal BMI range?
18.5-24.9
What's daily protein requirement based on weight?
.8g/kg
What is a a stock solution?
Stock solutions are concentrated solutions of the drug or excipient and are used to prepare solutions of lesser concentrations for convenience.
1 gallon = ? mL
3785mL
What's the freezing point depression equation?
deltaT = i K c

K = 1.86
Delta T = .52
C = molaLity
