When Testing a Novel Drug's Bioavailability, Researchers Inject It Intravenously

question 16

Multiple Choice

When testing a novel drug's bioavailability, researchers inject it intravenously (IV) into a volunteer and track changes in the drug's plasma concentrations. The identical amount of the medication is given orally (PO) to the volunteer after it has entirely left their bloodstream, and this time the researchers evaluate the drug's plasma concentrations over time. The resulting data are presented on the graph below. Which of the following is the best determinant of oral bioavailability of this drug?

• A)Area under the PO curve
• B)Area under the PO curve divided by area under the IV curve
• C)Maximal concentration at the peak of the PO curve
• D)Maximal concentration at the peak of the PO curve divided by maximal concentration at the peak of the IV curve
