Ping,
Did you look at the model predictions? If the predictions look Ok then you can ignore the
rounding error message. A visual predictive check would be a good way to decide if your
model predictions are OK.
You say CL is small and V2 is large. On what basis of prior knowledge do you judge them to
be small and large? Unless you have some good reason e.g. CL much bigger than cardiac output
then it isn't usually helpful to judge the numerical values to be small or large.
