She is 5’6” tall and weighs 60 kg. Her serum creatinine level is 0.75 mg/dl. What is her creatinine clearance? What is the patient’s ke and half-life? Calculate the i.v. bolus dose in order to achieve 1 mg/L 1 hour after administration. The Vd is 0.25 L/kg and assume that CL = CrCL.

A patient has overdosed on phenobarbital, a weak acid drug. If the drug is not cleared hepatically, what are two ways you could treat the patient? 1. Make urine more alkaline. 2. Increase urine flow rate.4.) True or false: Fluid is filtered across the glomerulus through passive diffusion. True. An ionized and hydrophilic drug is more likely to cross biological membranes.
