How is the statement "The dose makes the poison" related to Table $22.1 ?$
The rate of reaction $r$ to a given dose of a drug at time $t$ hours after administration is given by $r(t)=t e^{-t^{2}}$ (measured in appropriate units). (a) Why is it reasonable to define the total reaction as the area under the graph of $y=r(t)$ on $[0, \infty) ?$ (b) Find the total reaction to the given dose of the drug.

Total body clearance of the drug. c. fraction of drug excreted unchanged in the urine. d. Percentage of drug bound to plasma proteins. e. area under the plasma drug concentration versus time curve (AUC).
