Note: Value can be positive or negative.
Maintenance Dose
The Maintenance Dose is the dose of a drug that is administered on a regular basis to maintained a desired plasma concentration.
Symbol: MD
Measurement: Mass Flow RateUnit: mg/h
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Bioavailability of Drug
The Bioavailability of Drug is defined as the systemically available fraction of a drug.
