Abstract
The purpose of this chapter is to make certain that you have the required algebra skills to read and understand the next two chapters that are related to introductory pharmacokinetic theory. I have been using this chapter as an introductory single lecture for the course of pharmacokinetics followed by a 45-min exam for the last 3 years. It is verified that students who do not perform well in this chapter, do not perform well in the subject of pharmacokinetics.
