title: Use of a programmable hand-held calculator for clinical pharmacokinetics.
abstract: The use of a programmable hand-held calculator for clinical pharmacokinetics is discussed. Programs for the following determinations are described: bioavailability--area under the curve; estimation of creatinine clearance; multiple dosing--one compartment, extravascular administration; and pharmacokinetics--two-compartment parameters.
