Filtration Rate of Drug Solution

Follow our step by step solution on how to calculate Filtration Rate of Drug?

FIRST Step Consider the formula
Frate=((CLrCp)+Rrate-Srate)
Next Step Substitute values of Variables
Frate=((15.6mL/min17mol/L)+14.5mL/min-10.4mL/min)
Next Step Convert Units
Frate=((2.6E-7m³/s17000mol/m³)+2.4E-7m³/sec-1.7E-7m³/sec)
Next Step Prepare to Evaluate
Frate=((2.6E-717000)+2.4E-7-1.7E-7)
Next Step Evaluate
Frate=0.00442006833333333m³/sec
LAST Step Convert to Output's Unit
Frate=265204.1mL/min

Filtration Rate of Drug Formula Elements

Variables
Filtration Rate
Filtration Rate is the estimates of how much blood passes through the glomeruli each minute.
Symbol: Frate
Measurement: Glomerular Filtration RateUnit: mL/min
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Renal Clearance
Renal Clearance is a measure of kidney transport in units of volume of plasma per unit time.
Symbol: CLr
Measurement: Volumetric Flow RateUnit: mL/min
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Plasma Concentration
Plasma Concentration is the concentration of the drug after administration and before the next dose is administered.
Symbol: Cp
Measurement: Molar ConcentrationUnit: mol/L
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Reabsorption Rate of Drug
Reabsorption Rate of Drug is the measure of movement of drug and solutes from the tubule back into the plasma.
Symbol: Rrate
Measurement: Glomerular Filtration RateUnit: mL/min
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Secretion Rate of Drug
Secretion Rate of Drug is the measure of the removal of drugs from the body, either as a metabolite or unchanged drug.
Symbol: Srate
Measurement: Glomerular Filtration RateUnit: mL/min
Note: Value should be greater than 0.

How to Evaluate Filtration Rate of Drug?

Filtration Rate of Drug evaluator uses Filtration Rate = ((Renal Clearance*Plasma Concentration)+Reabsorption Rate of Drug-Secretion Rate of Drug) to evaluate the Filtration Rate, The Filtration Rate of Drug formula is defined as the volume of drug filtered from the renal (kidney) glomerular capillaries into the Bowman's capsule per unit time. Filtration Rate is denoted by Frate symbol.

How to evaluate Filtration Rate of Drug using this online evaluator? To use this online evaluator for Filtration Rate of Drug, enter Renal Clearance (CLr), Plasma Concentration (Cp), Reabsorption Rate of Drug (Rrate) & Secretion Rate of Drug (Srate) and hit the calculate button.

FAQs on Filtration Rate of Drug

What is the formula to find Filtration Rate of Drug?
The formula of Filtration Rate of Drug is expressed as Filtration Rate = ((Renal Clearance*Plasma Concentration)+Reabsorption Rate of Drug-Secretion Rate of Drug). Here is an example- 1.6E+13 = ((2.6E-07*17000)+2.41666666666667E-07-1.73333333333333E-07).
How to calculate Filtration Rate of Drug?
With Renal Clearance (CLr), Plasma Concentration (Cp), Reabsorption Rate of Drug (Rrate) & Secretion Rate of Drug (Srate) we can find Filtration Rate of Drug using the formula - Filtration Rate = ((Renal Clearance*Plasma Concentration)+Reabsorption Rate of Drug-Secretion Rate of Drug).
Can the Filtration Rate of Drug be negative?
No, the Filtration Rate of Drug, measured in Glomerular Filtration Rate cannot be negative.
Which unit is used to measure Filtration Rate of Drug?
Filtration Rate of Drug is usually measured using the Milliliter per Minute[mL/min] for Glomerular Filtration Rate. Cubic meter per second[mL/min] are the few other units in which Filtration Rate of Drug can be measured.
