The Area Under the Curve

The AUC after a single iv bolus dose is equal to :

AUC t= ∞t=0 =

Cp0

k
Slope = -k/2.303

Cp0

Also, the AUC after a single iv bolus dose is equal to :

AUC t= ∞t=0 =

Dose

CLT

This means that the AUC is is affected by the dose and the total body clearance of the drug.
