This book provides a concise overview of recent advances in Pharmacokinetics (PK) and Pharmacodynamics (PD). The pharmacokinetics section covers the state of the art inPhysiologically Based Pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modeling (Chapter 1) as well as the assessment of food effect on drug absorption using PBPK modeling (Chapter 2). Chapters 3 and 4 describe the recent development ofPhysiologically Based Finite Time Pharmacokinetic (PBFTPK) models andtheir applications to pharmacokinetic data. The pharmacodynamics section focuses on PK/PD modeling. Chapter 5 providesan overview of PK/PD modeling and simulation in clinical practice andstudies. Chapter 6 deals with the subject/physiology variability issue encountered in PK/PD studies, while Chapter 7 reviews the influence ofclinical pharmacology in the modernization of drug development and regulation. This book is an essential reference for pharmaceutical scientists.

The state of the art in Biopharmaceutics, Pharmacokinetics, and Pharmacodynamics Modeling is presented in this new second edition book. This second edition has new information on reaction limited models of dissolution, non binary biopharmaceutic classification system, time varying models, and interface models.
