Rang & Dale’s Pharmacology, 9 Edition
It has two main parts. The first part discusses the main pharmacokinetic processes of absorption, distribution, metabolism and elimination (ADME) involved in a drug with a general systemic therapeutic effect after administration in the body. The second part discusses the pharmacokinetic behavior (linear and non-linear) of drugs intended for intravascular or extravascular administration in the body. Special attention is paid to the compartmental approach (one- and two-compartment analysis) to study pharmacokinetic behavior and derive the main, first-order and second-order pharmacokinetic parameters. The book also discusses non-compartmental pharmacokinetic analysis.
