Peak highest concentration indicates if dosage is too high and potentially toxic
Trough lowest concentration measured just before next dose. Confirms that
concentration remains above minimum effective level throughout dosing
period.
First Pass Metabolism Concentration of drug is significantly reduced by liver and GI before it
reaches bloodstream.
If more stable to 1st pass- lower doses are needed bc more drug reaches
systemic circulation with higher bioavailability.
