    2.9.2.11: Maintenance Doses

    A maintenance dose is the amount of medication the patient must take to maintain therapeutic blood levels. Maintenance doses are determined by drug blood levels, which are affected by a patient’s age, weight, ethnic differences, disease, pharmacogenomics, and pharmacokinetics
    (World Health Organization, 2023).
