Theory of intravenous infusion• The drug is administered at a selected or
calculated constant rate (K0) (i.e. dX/dt), the units of this input rate will be those of mass per unit time (e.g.mg/hr).
• The constant rate can be calculated from the concentration of drug solution and the flow rate of this solution, For example, the concentration of drug solution is 1% (w/v) and this solution is being infused at the constant rate of 10mL/hr (solution flow rate). So 10mL of solution will contain 0.1 g (100 mg) drug.
• The infusion rate (K0) equals to the solution flow rate multiplied by the concentration
• In this example, the infusion rate will be 10mL/hr multiplied by 100 mg/10 mL, or 100mg/hr. The elimination of drug from the body follows a first

Steady state
• At steady state the input rate (infusion rate) is equal to the elimination rate.
• This characteristic of steady state is valid for all drugs regardless to the pharmacokinetic behavior or the route of administration.

Time needed to achieve steady state
time needed to get to a certain fraction of steady state depends on the half life of the drug (not the infusion rate)

IV infusion + Loading IV bolus• During constant rate IV administration, the drug accumulates
until steady state is achieved after five to seven half-lives
• This can constitute a problem when immediate drug effect is required and immediate achievement of therapeutic drug concentrations is necessary such as in emergency situations
• In this ease, administration of a loading dose will be necessary. The loading dose is an IV holus dose administered at the time of starting the IV infusion to achieve faster approach to steady state. So administration of an IV loading dose and starting the constant rate IV infusion simultaneously can rapidly produce therapeutic drug concentration. The loading dose is chosen to produce Plasma concentration similar or close to the desired plasma concentration that will be achieved by the IV infusion at steady state

Changing Infusion Rates
• The rate of infusion of a drug is sometimes changed during therapy because of excessive toxicity or an inadequate therapeutic response. If the object of the change is to produce a new plateau, then the time to go from one plateau to another—whether higher or lower—depends solely on the half-life of the drug.

• For prolonged surgical procedures, succinylcholine is given by IV infusion for sustained muscle relaxation. A typical initial dose is 20 mg followed by continuous infusion of 4 mg/min. the infusion must be individualized because of variation in the kinetics of metabolism of suucinylcholine. Estimate the elimination half-lives of succinylcholine in patients requiring 0.4 mg/min and 4 mg/min, respectively, to maintain 20 mg in the body. (35 and 3.5 min)

Example 5
A drug is administered as a short term infusion. The average pharmacokinetic parameters for this
drug are:
K = 0.40 hr-1
Vd = 28 L
This drug follows a one-compartment body model.
47
Example 5
1) A 300 mg dose of this drug is given as a short-term infusion over 30 minutes. What is the infusion rate? What will be the plasma concentration at the end of the infusion?
2) How long will it take for the plasma concentration to fall to 5.0 mg/L?
3) If another infusion is started 5.5 hours after the first infusion was stopped, what will the plasma concentration be just before the second infusion?
