We have subtractor roman numbers; they are only used for subtraction

C 100
Also every little subtract the next 2 romans

V 5 X 10
L 50 C 100
D 500 M 1000
To ( add ) we can repeat number up to 3 times Viii = 8 Lxx = 70

Ratio Strength Parts per Million (PPM)
Ratio strength is another way of expressing The strengths of very dilute solutions are
percentage strength. For example, a 1% w/v ommonly expressed in terms of parts per million
solution and a ratio strength of 1:100 w/v are (ppm) . i e., the number of parts of the agent per
equivalent. 1 million
Express 1: 4000 as a percentage strength. . For example, fluoridated drinking water in which
1 part 4000 parts fluoride added at levels of between 1 to 4 parts
X % 100% per million (1:1,000,000 to 4:1,000,000) for the
100 purpose of reducing dental caries.
X= 4000 = 0.025 %

Dilution is the process of preparing a less concentrated solution from a more concentrated
one.
Prepare 100 ml of 70 % from two solutions have conc. 80% and 30%.

80% 40% 4 5

𝑥 100 = 20𝑚𝑙
Subtract higher concentration from final conc. to give volume of lower conc. and vice
versa.
Then divided resulting parts on total parts and multiplication with numbers of solution
millimeter
= 43.75%
CALCULATING DOSES
According
to age
• Young’s rule Dose for Child Age of child years X adult dose
age years 12
• Cowling’s rule
Dose for Child Age at next birthday years X adult dose

• Clark’s rule
X adult dose
Dose for infant weight lb

Vd 𝑑𝑜𝑠𝑒 Vd = Volume of distribution
𝑉𝑑 = 𝐶𝑜
Co = Conc. of drug in plasma at zero time
Loading dose = Vd x Css Loading dose .. is the dose needed to reach steady
Or = Vd x ( C2 - C1) state
Css = Concentration of the drug in blood at steady
state
C1 = Concentration of the drug in plasma
C2 = Concentration of the drug needed to add to C1 to
reach equired conc.
(Tss) (Tss) = 4.5 or 5 t1/2 (Tss) Time required to reach steady state
t1/2 t 1 0.693 t1/2 = the time required for the concentration of a
2 ke substance in the body to decrease by half.
CrCl
140 patient ' s age in years Body weight in kg
72 serum creatinine in mg / dl
For females: CrCl = 0.85 X CrCl determined using formula for males
TI The therapeutic index The minimum effective dose, ED50, is the dose
𝑻𝑫𝟓𝟎 that produces the therapeutic effect in 50% of the
= population.
𝑬𝑪𝟓𝟎 The toxic dose, TD50, is the dose that is toxic to
50% of the population. This is used in human
studies.
