A short discussion of the differences between kinetic processes of zero and first order is followed by an outline of evaluation methods used in pharmacokinetic practice, e.g. "paper and pencil methods" as well as the use of digital and analog computers. The increasing potency of new drugs requires not only more sophisticated methods of analysis and expensive facilities but also more complex models to generate pharmacokinetic information.
