Pharmacokinetic Compartment Model
The pharmacokinetic compartment model represents the body as one or more hypothetical compartments interconnected by first-order rate processes, describing how a drug is absorbed, distributed, and eliminated over time. Systematized by Gibaldi and Perrier in 1982, these models use ordinary differential equations to characterize plasma concentration-time profiles. They are the cornerstone of drug development, dosage regimen design, and regulatory submission pharmacokinetic analyses.
