Hello All
Could somebody share their views on this?
I am analysing a data set (iv infusion) in NONMEM using a three compartment
model for the drug and two compartment model for the metabolite using
ADVAN6. How can I calculate the macro constants (alpha, beta, gamma) from
the calculated microconstants (k10, k12, k21, k13, k31, k30)? I wish to
estimate the half-life etc. Are there any reported papers on these type of
results?
Thanks in advance
