Deprtment of Physicl Phrmcy nd Phrmcoinetics Poznń University of Medicl Sciences Phrmcoinetics lbortory Methods of residuls The method of residuls is used in phrmcoinetics for resolving curve into its vrious exponentil components. The terms fethering, peeling nd stripping re lso used to described this technique. A drug dministered orlly is bsorbed by pprent first-order inetics nd confers the chrcteristics of one-comprtment model on the body. The following eqution (Btemn) hs been employed to describe the time course for such drug in the body: F X 0 K t t C = ( e e ) (1) V ( K) where C is the plsm concentrtion of drug t ny time t following the dministrtion dose X 0, V is the pprent volume of distribution, F is the frction of the orlly dministered dose which is bsorbed, nd nd K re the pprent first-order bsorption nd elimintion rte constnt, respectively. A plot of the logrithm of plsm drug concentrtion versus time following orl dministrtion will be biexponentil with terminl liner phse hving slope of K. Above eqution cn be trnsformed into the following expression: C = B e -K t A e - t () where A nd B re intercepts on the y xis for ech exponentil segment of the curve. Assuming >> K ( /K 3), the vlue for the second exponentil will become insignificntly smll with time (i.e., e - t 0) nd cn therefore be omitted. When this is the cse, drug bsorption is virtully complete. Eqution then reduces to: C = B e -K t (3) lnc = lnb K t () This eqution, which represents first order drug elimintion, will yield liner plot on semilog pper. The slope is equl to K, pprent first-order elimintion rte constnt. The vlue for cn be obtined by using the method of residuls. The Eq. 3 is substituted into the Eq. : - t C = C A e - t C - C = A e ln(c C) = lna - t (5) The new line obtined by grphing the logrithm of residul plsm concentrtion ginst time represents the phse. The slope is equl to, pprent first-order bsorption rte constnt. The vlues of K nd re obtined by the following procedure: ) Plot the drug concentrtion versus time on semilog pper with the concentrtion vlues on the logrithmic xis. b) Obtin the slope (), the y-intercept (b) nd regression coefficient of the terminl elimintion phse by lest squre method. The slope is equl to K. c) Clculte the extrpolted concentrtion vlues (C 1, C, C 3 nd C ) by substituting the time vlues t 1, t, t 3 nd t in the eqution where the slope nd the y-intercept were previously clculted.

TopFit TopFit is computer progrm for non-comprtmentl dt nlysis nd liner nd non-liner comprtmentl modeling with the option of simultneous effect fitting. TopFit llows simultneous nlysis of severl dt sets. Also, simultions of plsm levels nd effect inetics cn be performed.
