Safe and effective dosage
The concentration in the blood resulting from a single dose of drug normally decreases with time
as the drug is eliminated from the body. Doses may therefore need to be repeated periodically to
keep the concentration from dropping below some particular level. One mode for the effect of
repeated doses gives the residual concentration just before the (n+1)st dose as
R₁ = Ce+Ce-2+...+
... + Ce
-nkl
where C, the change in concentration achievable by a single dose (mg/mL), k = the
elimination constant (h), and to time between the doses (h).

B) Calculate R, and R₁0 for Co = 1 mg/mL, k = 0.1h and 10 = 10h. How good an estimate of
R is R₁0?
C) If k = 0.01h and to = 10h, find the smallest n such that R,,> (1/2) R. Use
C =1 mg/mL.
