A Workshop, presenting the basic concepts and applications of pharmacokinetics
in the pharmaceutical, clinical, and veterinary sciences.
FOR WHOM INTENDED
The Workshop is designed for pharmaceutical scientists, pharmacologists and
other scientists, pharmacists, and physicians wishing to use pharmacokinetics
in drug selection and development, drug protocol design, drug evaluation, drug
registration and in the establishment of dosage regimens. Emphasis is placed on
relating pharmacokinetics to underlying physiological processes. Only limited
exposure to pharmacokinetics is assumed.
WORKSHOP CONTENT
The Workshop is divided into lectures and small group workshops, in which
participants will solve practical problems. A manual, comprising lecture
outlines, derivations, problem sets with answers, and additional reading
material will be provided. Participants should come with a scientific hand
calculator.
TOPICS TO BE COVERED INCLUDE:
1. Physiological aspects of drug absorption, distribution and
elimination
2. Clearance concepts in pharmacokinetics
3. Assessment of pharmacokinetic parameters, from plasma and urine
data, following intravenous bolus, constant rate infusion and extravascular
(oral) administration
4. Assessment of rate and extent of drug absorption;
bioavailability
5. Multiple dosing
6. Integration of physiological concepts with pharmacokinetics
7. Interspecies scaling
8. Distribution kinetics: introduction to assessment of parameters
and consequences in pharmacokinetics
9. Pharmacological Response
COURSE FEE:
CHF4925 which includes all meals and accommodation at the Arosa Kulm Hotel.
