Multiple dosing: intravenous bolusadministration
Dr Mohammad Issa Saleh
Multiple dosing calculations using Superposition
Let:Dose 1 Conc. 1
and:Dose 2 Conc. 2
then the response system behaves according to the superposition principle if:
Dose 1 +Dose 2 Conc. 1 + Conc. 2
and in that case the response system is a linear response system

A patient is to be given 100 mg of a drug intravenously. Assuming that K = 0.10 hr-1 and a V = 15 L, estimate the following:1. The half life

Multiple dosing calculations using Superposition
The principle of superposition assumes that early doses of drug do not affect the pharmacokinetics of subsequent doses.
Therefore, the blood levels after the second, third, or nth dose will overlay or superimpose the blood level attained after the (n – 1)th dose

Time to reach steady state conc.
The time required to reach to a certain fraction of the steady-state level is given by:
Time required to achieve steady-state depends on the half-life and is independent of the rate of dosing and the clearance
To get to 95% of the steady-state: 5 half-lives are needed
To get to 99% of the steady-state: 7 half-lives are needed

Example 1
To a patient 250 mg penicillin with t½ of 1 h and Vd of 25 L is administered every 6 h intravenously
1. Estimate Cmax, Cmin and Cav at steady state
2. Has the objective of maintaining concentration above minimum inhibitory concentration (4 mg/L) been achieved in this therapy? Elaborate!
3. How long did it take to reach 95% of Css? 4. Is the idea of giving a bolus dose to
achieve Css in a shorter time feasible with regard to this drug?

Example 1
Drug concentration cannot be maintained above the MIC if it is being administered every 6 h (6 x t½). Because almost 98% of the dose is out of the body at the time of the next administration. However, conventionally penicillins are given q.i.d. and it is known that they are effective. Therefore, there is no need for keeping the concentration above MIC during the entire therapy.
4.3 hrs are needed to get to 95% of Css (i.e. Css was obtained as a result of the first dose)

Example 1
The steady-state is achieved very rapidly (after the first dose). Since there is no need for accumulation, there is little justification for giving a loading dose.
Example 2
A patient is receiving 1000 mg of sulfamethoxazole iv every 12 hours for the treatment of severe gram-negative infection. At steady state the maximum and minimum serum sulfamethoxazole concentrations were 81.5 mg/L and 40 mg/L, respectively. Estimate the values of K and VD
