  2. Cetirizine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cetirizine

    The pharmacokinetics of cetirizine have been found to increase linearly with dose across a range of 5 to 60 mg. [3] Its C max following a single dose has been found to be 257 ng/mL for 10 mg and 580 ng/mL for 20 mg. [2] Food has no effect on the bioavailability of cetirizine but has been found to delay the T max by 1.7 hours (i.e., to ...

  3. Cefditoren - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cefditoren

    Cefditoren pivoxil was not teratogenic up to the highest doses tested in rats and rabbits. In rats, this dose was 1000 mg/kg/day, which is approximately 24 times a human dose of 200 mg twice daily based on mg/m 2 /day. In rabbits, the highest dose tested was 90 mg/kg/day, which is approximately four times a human dose of 200 mg twice daily ...

  4. Clark's rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clark's_rule

    Clark's rule is a medical term referring to a mathematical formula used to calculate the proper dosage of medicine for children aged 2–17 based on the weight of the patient and the appropriate adult dose. [1] The formula was named after Cecil Belfield Clarke (1894–1970), a Barbadian physician who practiced throughout the UK, the West Indies ...

    Subsequently, the National Academy of Sciences (NAS) reviewed the health implications of perchlorate, and in 2005 proposed a much higher alternative reference dose of 0.0007 mg/kg/day based primarily on a 2002 study by Greer et al. [6] During that study, 37 adult human subjects were split into four exposure groups exposed to 0.007 (7 subjects ...

    So, the maintenance dose of foosporin is 100 milligrams (100 mg) per day—just enough to offset the amount cleared. Suppose a patient just started taking 100 mg of foosporin every day. On the first day, they'd have 100 mg in their system; their body would clear 10 mg, leaving 90 mg.

  7. Bilastine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bilastine

    The Thorough QT/QTc study was designed to assess the effect on the QT/QTc interval, both of the therapeutic dose (20 mg) and 100 mg of bilastine, but also the coadministration of the therapeutic dose with usual doses of ketoconazol (400 mg/day), a metabolism inhibitor and a P-gP dependent transport system.

  8. Defined daily dose - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Defined_Daily_Dose

    At the time, the RDD of rosuvastatin was similar to its DDD (12.6 mg vs 10mg), but the RDD of atorvastatin was twice its DDD (20.6 mg vs 10mg). The DDD of atorvastatin was revised in 2009 to 20mg. [4] The Canadian Patented Medicine Prices Review Board analysed the use of DDD for drug utilisation and cost analysis and offered recommendations ...

  9. Iron poisoning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron_poisoning

    It is a chelating agent and binds to free iron in the body in order to be eliminated by the kidneys into urine. [8] Dosing of deferoxamine should be determined through consultation with a toxicologist but is typically continuously infused at 15 mg/kg to 35 mg/kg per hour and not exceeding the maximum daily dose of 6 grams for adults.
