THERAPEUTIC WINDOW

'Therapeutic window' is an index for estimation of drug dosage which can treat disease effectively while staying within the safety range. It is the range between the ED50 and the starting point of LD50 curve. It is believed that this index can help to avoid most of the potential side effects. [1]
This index is believed to be more reliable than that of therapeutic index since this index considers the biological variation among individuals to a larger extent.
