A male patient (32 yo, 60 kg) with normal renal function is to be given a drug by IV infusion. The t1/2 of the drug is 3.4 hrs and the apparent Vd is 18.9% of the body weight. The pharmacokinetics of this drug assumes a first-order process. The Css for this antibiotic is 10 mcg/mL. Assuming no loading dose, how long after the start of the IV infusion would it take to reach 99% of the Css? (3 points)
