Hands on: Intro to Applied PK
This hands-on tutorial will give you an introduction to using concentration-time plots. It will guide you through adding a course of a drug to DoseMeRx, and help you think about how pharmacokinetics is relevant to treating the overall patient.
Before downloading the worksheet on the left, you should have:
- Viewed the introductory tutorial; and
- Created a DoseMeRx Account

In this case, we also introduced guidelines-based dosing as well as Bayesian dosing. You can read more about these at:
