Pharmacokinetics in children

The inhaled concentration required to achieve clinical anaesthesia depends on the patient's age. The minimum alveolar concentration (MAC) of isoflurane in oxygen increases from an average of 1.6% in neonates to 1.87% in infants of 6 months, and then gradually down with age to 1.28% in young adults and 1.05% in elderly patients.
