Expert interpretation of drug concentration is critical to understanding pharmacokinetics and realizing full its clinical benefits. Clinicians achieve this by monitoring drug pharmacodynamics routinely and measuring physiological indices of therapeutic responses directly. However, the vast inter-individual variation between drug response and dosages makes it challenging to individualize drug dosage.
