15. An IV infusion is administered to a 120 lb patient by IV infusion at a rate of 1.8mg/kg/hr. The drug has a half-life of 8 hours and distributes into a volume of 15 L.a) Find the concentration function C(t) while the infusion is being administered.b) Find the loading dose required to make C(1) a constant if the infusion continues.c) If the loading dose from part b is given followed by 24 hours of infusion at 1.8mg/kg/hr, graph the concentration for the first 48 hours.d) If the loading dose from part b is given followed by 24 hours of infusion at 1.8 mg/kg/hr,how long will the concentration remain within the therapeutic window of 50-100 mcg/ml?

Given values: Dose = 1.8 mg/kg/hr * 54.43 kg ≈ 98.0 mg/hr V = 15 L half-life = 8 hours Where: C(t)…
