Volume of distribution - 118 litres PROTEIN BINDING : Dexmedetomidine is 95% protein bound to albumin. Protein bound fraction decreases with hepatic impairment. Dexmedetomidine does not displace phenytoin‚ propranolol‚ warfarin‚ digoxin and theophylline from plasma proteins. METABOLISM : Biotransformation occurs in the liver to inactive metabolites. Metabolism occurs by N-methyl glucuronidation in the liver and the glucuronide metabolites are excreted in the urine. Hence the dosage

The article reviewed discussed the topic of human cytotoxicity in response to exposure to glyphosate‚ its major metabolite (AMPA)‚ and the commonly added surfactant compounds found in major herbicides. Glyphosate exposure has increased world-wide at an exponential rate along with the production of genetically modified crops. Currently up to 75% of genetically modified crops are treated

I concur with COL Reed’s comments on toxicity but believe that further emphasis is required on the individual leader responsible for the behavior. The paper comprehensively researches toxicity and its fall-out. He goes to great length to define and list the effects of toxicity on unit morale‚ cohesion‚ and retention. Accurate pitfalls with existing assessment tools address how toxic leaders continue their ascent to positions of increased spheres of influence. Techniques for raters to frankly
