COMPARTMENTAL MODEL
A compartment is a group of tissues with similar
blood flow and drug affinity.
A compartment is physiologic and anatomic
region.
Compartment is the traditional and most widely
used approach to pharmacokinetic
characterization of drug. These models simply
interpolate the instrumental data and allow on
empirical formula to estimate drug
concentration with time.

ASSUMPTIONS OF COMPARTMENTAL
MODELS
 The body is represented as a series of
compartment arranged in series or parallel to
each other.
 The rate of drug movement between
compartment is described by first order kinetics.
 Rate constants are used to represent rate of
entry into and exit from compartment.
 A statistical analysis of plasma concentration
time data is another method used to find out no
of compartments.

APPLICATION OF COMPARTMENT
MODELLING
i. It is simple and flexible approach and
widely used.
ii. It gives a visual representation of various
rate process involved in drug disposition.
iii. It is useful in predicting drug
concentration time profile in both normal
and pathological composition.
iv. It is useful in relating plasma drug levels in
therapeutic and toxic levels.

ONE COMPARTMENT
MODEL
6

 The time course of drug concentration determined
after the administration can satisfactorily
explained by assuming the body as a single well
mixed compartment with first order disposition
process.
 The body is constituted as a single kinetically
homogeneous unit with no barriers to movement
of drug.
 Elimination is a first order process with first order
rate constant.
 Drug moves dynamically in and out of the
compartment then rate of input will be greater
then the rate of output.
ONE COMPARTMENT MODEL
(Instantaneous Distribution Model)
7

ONE COMPARTMENT “OPEN
MODEL”
 The term open indicates that the input
(availability) and output (elimination) are
unidirectional and that the drug can be
eliminated from the body.
8

CLASSIFICATION OF ONE COMPARTMENT
OPEN MODEL
 Depending upon rate of input ,several one
compartment models are defined
 One compartment open model- intravenous bolus
administration
 One compartment open model- continuous
intravenous infusion
 One compartment open model-extra vascular zero –
order absorption
 One compartment open model- extra vascular first –
order absorption

INTRAVENEOUS BOLUS ADMISINTRATION
 When a drug that distributes in body is given in
the form of a lipid intravenous injections , its
takes about one or three minutes, for complete
circulation.
 The model can be diagrammatically depicted as
10

It can be mathematically
represented as :
 The general expression for rate of drug
presentation to the body is: on
11

Since rate in or absorption is absent, the
equation becomes:
If the rate out or elimination follows first-order kinetics,
then:
where, KE = first-order elimination rate constant, and
X = amount of drug in the body at any time t remaining
to be eliminated.
Negative sign indicates that the drug is being lost from
the body. Galgotias university / Industrial pharmacy

Estimation of Pharmacokinetic
Parameters
 For a drug that follows one-compartment
kinetics and administered as rapid i.v. injection,
the decline in plasma drug concentration is only
due to elimination of drug from the body (and
not due to distribution), the phase being called
as elimination phase. Elimination phase can be
characterized by 3 parameters—
 1. Elimination rate constant
 2. Elimination half-life
 3. Clearance

kinetics and given by rapid i.v. injection, and (b) Semi logarithmic
plot for the rate of elimination in a one-compartment model.
14

Elimination Half-Life:
 It is defined as the time taken for the amount of
drug in the body as well as plasma concentration
to decline by one-half or 50% its initial value.
15

Apparent Volume of Distribution:
 These parameters are closely related with the
physiologic mechanisms in the body, they are
called as primary parameters.
 1. Apparent volume of distribution, and
 2. Clearance.
16

Clearance
 Clearance is defined as the theoretical volume
of body fluid containing drug (i.e. that fraction
of apparent volume of distribution) from which
the drug is completely removed in a given
period of time. It is expressed in ml/min or
liters/hour.
 The total body clearance, ClT, also called as total
systemic clearance, is an additive property of
individual organ clearances.
17

Intravenous Infusion
 Rapid i.v. injection is unsuitable when the drug
has potential to precipitate toxicity or when
maintenance of a stable concentration or
amount of drug in the body is desired. In such a
situation, the drug (for example, several
antibiotics, theophylline, procainamide, etc.) is
administered at a constant rate (zero-order) by
i.v. infusion.
18

 In contrast to the short duration of infusion of an i.v.
bolus (few seconds), the duration of constant rate
infusion is usually much longer than the half-life of the
drug.
 Advantages of zero-order infusion of drugs include—
 1. Ease of control of rate of infusion to fit individual
patient needs.
 2. Prevents fluctuating maxima and minima (peak and
valley) plasma level, desired especially when the drug
has a narrow therapeutic index.
 3. Other drugs, electrolytes and nutrients can be
conveniently administered simultaneously by the same
infusion line in critically ill patients.
19

The model can be represented as
follows:

constant rate i.v. infusion (the two curves indicate
different infusion rates Ro and 2Ro for the same drug)
21

Extravascular Administration
 When a drug is administered by extravascular route
(e.g. oral, i.m., rectal, etc.), absorption is a
prerequisite for its therapeutic activity.
 The rate of absorption may be described
mathematically as a zero-order or first-order
process. A large number of plasma concentration-
time profiles can be described by a one-
compartment model with first-order absorption and
elimination. However, under certain conditions, the
absorption of some drugs may be better described
by assuming zero-order (constant rate) kinetics.

Distinction between zero-order and first-order absorption
processes. Figure a is regular plot, and Figure b a semi log plot of
amount of drug remaining to be absorbed (ARA) versus time t.

Zero-order absorption is characterized by a
constant rate of absorption
