<prompt> True statement regarding first order kinetics is:Rate of elimination is independent of plasma concentrationA constant proportion of plasma concentration is eliminated per unit timeHalf life increases with doseClearance decreases with dose  <response>: Ans. B A constant proportion of plasma concentration is eliminated per unit timeRef: RID 8the p38-39In first order kinetics, rate of elimination is proportional to plasma concentration of the drug. Half life and clearance are constant in first order kinetics.
