Time after dose
Hi, Everyone:
I am having trouble with getting the correct output of TAD (time after
dose) and hoping to get your suggestions.
Here is a brief description of my dataset: drug was given multiple dosing
every 12 hours. All the dosing events were recorded in the input file.
Observations were taken right before the last dose (predose), and 0.5, 1,
2, 4, 8 hrs post-dose.
I have used this code to calculate the TAD
IF(AMT.GT.0) THEN
TDOS=TIME
TAD=0.0
ENDIF
IF (AMT.EQ.0) TAD=TIME-TDOS
In the output, the TADs calculated for the predose observation, instead of
being a negative value, are closed to 12 and larger than the one for 8 hrs
observations. It is obviously wrong and it give me wrong individual plots.
I tried to find useful information in NM archive but cannot find any that
suitable for my situation.
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated! Thank you in advance for your help!
