  ABSTRACT: The first biphasic open one-compartment pharmacokinetic model is described. Its analytical solutions to drug concentration were developed from parameters of an open two-compartment pharmacokinetic model. The model is used to explain the unusually large compartment volumes and apparent volumes of distribution of lipophilic drugs, as well as to identify which of the pharmacokinetic parameters of the classical compartment models are biologically relevant.
