Evaluation of Patient response
After selection of drug product, patient receives the
initial dosage regimen
Dosage regimen are reviewed for
Adequacy
Accuracy
Patient compliance
Measurement of serum Drug concentration
It relate the therapeutic or toxic effect of the drug.
Blood sample are taken at 3 or 4 elimination half
life approximately give steady state drug conc.
Specificity
Sensitivity
Linearity and dynamic range
Precision
Accuracy
Ruggedness
Pharmacokinetic evaluation of serum drug conc.
After the assay of drug conc. in serum ,data are
evaluated for the total drug ( free plus bound drug )
conc. in serum.

Serum conc. lower than anticipated
Patient compliance
Error in dosage regimen
Wrong drug product
Poor bioavailability
Rapid elimination
Reduced plasma protein binding
Enlarged volume of distribution
Timing of blood sample
Changing hepatic blood flow
Steady state not reached
Special Recommendation-
If the patient may not response to drug therapy
due to other factor, special recommendation are
given
e.g. Patient noncompliance
DOSE SIZE -
The magnitude of both therapeutic and toxic responses
depends upon the dose size.

than the therapeutic activity of drug, single dose are
