Abstract
Using an equation for the calculation of plasma profiles of drug based on the zero-order input and Michaelis-Menten kinetic output in a one-compartment open model system, the times required to reach various degrees of several steady-state plasma concentrations of phenytoin are calculated. The effect of the apparent volume of distribution (due to intersubject variation or change in protein and/or tissue binding, etc.) on the time required to reach various fractions of steady-state plasma concentrations is discussed.Entities:
