Kinetics of Absorption
First-order absorption
First First-order absorption means the absorption rate is
proportional to the amount of drug at the absorption site.
This can be achieved by a constant rate intravenous infusion. It can also be approximated by some
kinds of oral dosing.

Kinetics of metabolism
First-order kinetics:
Zero-order kinetics:
As the amount of drug rises in the plasma,
certain processes that have limited capacity
become saturated (limited amount of enzymes
even if dose increases).

The time .
To decline the plasma concentration of a drug to. 50% from
the peak plasma concentration (PPC / Tmax)
Time to decline conc. from 100 to 50 = 2 hr
So, t1/2 of this drug is 2 hr
