Abstract

To encourage uniformity in the presentation of pharmacokinetic data, a general nomenclature has been developed. The system has wide application. Flexibility is achieved through the use of general variables, constants, qualifying terms, and subscripts. Yet, through the use of implied terms, the symbols describing many common variables and constants are simple.
