This book also introduces Non-compartmental models which are gaining increasing importance in the analysis of pharmacokinetic data. In the chapter Applications of Pharmacokinetics newer concepts such as chronopharmacokinetics have been introduced. Bioequivalence is covered in last two chapters. Besides clinical aspect of bioequivalence some of the important aspects of bioanalysis have also been introduced. The regulatory aspect of bioequivalence has also been covered. Thus an attempt has been made to cover all the basic aspects of biopharmaceutics and pharmacokinetics in a reader-friendly manner.
