| Special Instructions: |
In general, for those drugs for which
peak and trough therapeutic ranges have not been established, the specimen
should be obtained within two hours prior to the administration of the next drug
dose. Realizing that at steady state concentrations peak and trough levels do
not differ appreciably, this level would represent a trough. |
