  2. Augmented renal clearance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Augmented_renal_clearance

    The primary sign of augmented renal clearance is an increase in the creatinine clearance well above that which would be considered normal. Commonly, ARC is defined as a creatinine clearance of greater than 130 mL/min, but the effects of increased clearance on therapy are not directly correlated to a specific number.

  3. Amoxicillin/clavulanic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amoxicillin/clavulanic_acid

    Amoxicillin is an antibiotic while clavulanic acid is a non-antibiotic β-lactamase inhibitor which prevents metabolism of amoxicillin by certain bacteria. In addition to its β-lactamase inhibition, clavulanic acid shows central nervous system actions and effects and has been studied in the potential treatment of various psychiatric and ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Area_under_the_curve...

    For example, gentamicin is an antibiotic that can be nephrotoxic (kidney damaging) and ototoxic (hearing damaging); measurement of gentamicin through concentrations in a patient's plasma and calculation of the AUC is used to guide the dosage of this drug. [3] AUC becomes useful for knowing the average concentration over a time interval, AUC/t.

  5. Loading dose - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loading_dose

    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.

  6. Clearance (pharmacology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clearance_(pharmacology)

    In pharmacology, clearance is a pharmacokinetic parameter representing the efficiency of drug elimination. This is the rate of elimination of a substance divided by its concentration. [1]

  7. Equianalgesic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equianalgesic

    An equianalgesic chart is a conversion chart that lists equivalent doses of analgesics (drugs used to relieve pain). Equianalgesic charts are used for calculation of an equivalent dose (a dose which would offer an equal amount of analgesia) between different analgesics. [1]

  8. Trough level - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trough_level

    In a medicine that is administered periodically, the trough level should be measured just before the administration of the next dose in order to avoid overdosing. [3] A trough level is contrasted with a "peak level" (C max), which is the highest level of the medicine in the body, and the "average level", which is the mean level over time. It is ...

  9. Clavulanic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clavulanic_acid

    Amoxicillin–clavulanic acid is a first-line treatment for many types of infections, including sinus infections, and urinary tract infections, including pyelonephritis. This is, in part, because of its efficacy against gram-negative bacteria which tend to be more difficult to control than gram-positive bacteria with chemotherapeutic antibiotics.
