3a) An 68 kg patient is to be given a 2.0 mg/kg body weight IV bolus dose of a newly developed antibiotic drug every 6 hours. Assume the half-life of the drug and its volume of distribution in the patient are 3.2 hours and 0.26 L/kg respectively. (a) Calculate the peak and trough plasma concentrations for the antibiotic after, one dose, two doses, four doses, and at steady state.
