Pharmacokinetic measurements of bioequivalence: Area under the curve (AUC) and peak concentration (Cmax)
Pharmacokinetic measurements of bioequivalence: Area under the curve (AUC) and peak concentration (Cmax)
In pharmacology, the area under the plot of plasma concentration of a drug versus time after dosage (called "area under the curve" or AUC) and the peak concentration of the drug in plasma (Cmax) give insight into the extent of exposure to a drug and its clearance rate from the body.
