Q1. The time point at which Cmax is reached is tmax. tmax depends on:a) The administered dose of the drugb) The rate of absorptionc) The rate of eliminationd) The magnitude of the first pass effectQ2.

This is caused by:a) The smaller volume of distribution of the metabolite compared to that of the parent compoundb) The increased renal clearance of the drug compared to that of the parent compoundc) both a and b
