Part Descriptions
LP20176-1 trough
In medicine, a trough level is the lowest level that a medicine is present in the body. In a medicine that is administered periodically, the trough level should be measured just before the administration of the next dose in order to avoid overdosing. It should be contrasted with a "peak level", which is the highest level of the medicine in the body, and the "average level", which is the mean level over time. It helps in therapeutic drug monitoring. It is widely used in clinical trials for newer medicines for its therapeutic effectiveness and safety.

LP207910-3 free DRUG/TOX
The measurement of free (unbound) drug concentrations in plasma is important for certain drugs and has two advantages over measurement of total concentration: (1) the free concentration is independent of changes in plasma binding (e.g., due to changes in albumin), and (2) the free concentration is more directly related to both the efficacy and toxicity of the drug PMID: 6636249. For most drugs and the majority of patients, measuring the free and total concentrations is not necessary. However, for certain drugs, including some anticonvulsants and antibiotics, and specific patient populations, such as critically ill or immunosuppressed patients, the free concentration is a better indicator of therapeutic effect and potential toxicity.
