title: Drug elimination interactions: analysis using a mathematical model.
abstract: A mathematical model was developed to analyze the elimination kinetics of drug interactions in the rat. The model is based on physiological blood flow rates and organ weights and includes Michaelis-Menten equations for enzymatic processes which are involved in the elimination of the drug; competitive inhibition interactions are computed for shared pathways. Using data from the single drugs, the model can simulate the results of experiments of the acute warfarin-BSP interactions in rats.
