clearance of drug


Give this one a try later!


=rate of drug elimination/a drug concentration
=volume distribution x elimination constant
- gives indication of efficacy of elimination of drug from plasma
(volume/time are the units)




Indirect Acting Sympathomimetic Drugs: amphetamine


Give this one a try later!


stimulates release of NE from SNS neurons & in CNS (@ higher doses,
dopamine and serotonin also affected)
