CLINICAL PHARMACOKINETICS

临床药代动力学是研究药物在体内的分布规律，是药物开发和合理使用的重要组成部分。药物动力学原理的知识和应用可加速药物开发，降低药物的使用成本，减少不良反应和药物相互作用的频率。临床药代动力学是药物开发科学家、临床药理学家、医生和药师在这一令人兴奋和迅速变化的领域中不可缺少的信息来源。临床药代动力学促进临床药代动力学和药效学的不断发展，促进药物治疗水平的提高，促进临床药理学和治疗学研究生教育的深入。

Clinical Pharmacokinetics, the study of drug disposition in the body, is an integral part of drug development and rational use. Knowledge and application of pharmacokinetic principles leads to accelerated drug development, cost effective drug use and a reduced frequency of adverse effects and drug interactions. Clinical Pharmacokinetics is an indispensable source of information for drug development scientists, clinical pharmacologists, physicians and pharmacists involved in this exciting and rapidly changing area. Clinical Pharmacokinetics promotes the continuing development of clinical pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics for the improvement of drug therapy, and for furthering postgraduate education in clinical pharmacology and therapeutics.
