volume of distribution equation? what does an increase mean? loading dose?
(Vd) = dose/conc. (inherent property)

prolongs ½ life + inc. toxicity
what effect do genetic polymorphisms have on metabolism?
poor CYP2D6 metabolizers = codeine → morphine + tamoxifen → dec. endoxifen (active) → therapeutic failure
poor CYP2C19 metabolizers = omeprazole cause toxicity → extensive metabolizers need large dose for peptic ulcer Tx

= (renal exc. rate)/(plasma drug conc.)

rate of drug elimination is proportional to plasma drug conc. at any given time
