What happens when volume increases?
Prof. Brown explains the situation for an increase in volume (V).
If volume (V) doubles, we should double dosing interval (tau) and the dose at the same time, or simply double the dose? Both conditions are discussed in this section.
Finally, we need to know the reason why AUC keeps the same even if volume (V) changes. You can try to write down the relationship between AUC and k to figure out the answer.
