The baseline study or investigation that needs to be completed for this patient is to check or monitor the liver enzymes levels.

<h3>What are liver enzymes?</h3>

The body uses proteins or enzymes from the liver for several purposes. Generally speaking, they control the chemical processes that keep you healthy. For instance, they affect how quickly chemicals that aid in infection defense or blood clotting are produced. They also aid your body in speedy digestion of food and elimination of impurities.

These tests mostly look at the following liver enzymes:

Gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT), Alanine transaminase (ALT), Aspartate transaminase (AST), and alkaline phosphatase (ALP).

When the liver is injured, it releases enzymes into the blood. Therefore, increased liver enzyme levels in the blood could be a sign of trouble.

If 100 mg drug is administered and has a half life of 6 hours, the percentage of the drug that will be in the system is 18 hours
atroni [7]

Answer:

Kindly check explanation as the question seems incomplete but the explanation should help.

Explanation:

Given the following :

Initial dosage of drug = 100mg

Halflife of drug = 6hours

After 18 hours, the percentage of drug that will be in the system should be :

Half-life is the time taken for a material to reduce to half of it's initial size.

Since half life = 6 hours

After 6 hours ; amount left = 100/2 = 50 mg

After 12 hours ; amount left = 50/2 = 25mg

After 18 hours ; amount left = 25/2 = 12.5mg

Hence, after 18 hours percentage left in system :

(Amount left / total initial amount) × 100%

(12.5 / 100) × 100%

0.125 × 100%

= 12.5%
