RE: Time after dose
Dear Siwei,
You may consider to add a column TAD in you NONMEM dataset. If should be
pretty easy to calculate it in Excel.
Best regards,
Jean

Subject: [NMusers] 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!
