3 Half-life: This is the period of time required for the concentration or amount of drug in the body to
be reduced by one-half. In the given compounds A, B &C, compound B has half life 24 H so it
will provide concentration 50% of the initial concentration at 24 H.
4 Compound Z has efflux ratio equal to 1 and so it has ability to cross cell membranes.
Mechanism: Passive diffusion.
5. Compound B is the best compound because it is less ionized at PH 7.4 (% ionization= 75.9%)
and it has less protein binding so it is going to have a high free fraction.
6.Compond X is more potent than Y& Z because it produces max. response at low dose of drug.
