Re: simluation Tmax Cmax AUC
Hi,
It looks like you are trying to derive the unknown values of KA, CL/F and V/F from the known values of Tmax, Cmax and AUC (probably obtained from a non compartmental analysis).
If that is really the case, you will need to know the values of the half-life of elimination or the slope of elimination Ke to solve for Ka and V/F (the following solutions assume a one-compartment model with linear absorption and elimination):
CL/F = Dose/AUC
V/F = (CL/F)/Ke
KA = - (1/tmax)*ln[ exp(-ke*tmax) - (Cmax*V)/(F*dose) ]
If you don't know Ke, you will have to solve for V/F and Ka numerically, prior to your simulation.

What the $PK modification should I have to do in the model where the advan2 has been taken in the $subroutine.
