My research focuses on pharmacotherapy in critically-ill patients.  Critically-ill patients usually have complex medical conditions that require multiple medication managements.  Understanding pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of medications in this patient population is a key to successful management.  Dosing strategies are crucial for ICU patients, especially patients with renal disease or hepatic disease.  Drug-drug interactions often play an important role in patient's response to medications in ICU setting.  Decisions on medication choices affect overall response rate and outcomes.
