Is �DOSE=0� accepted by NONMEM?
Dear NONMEM users,
I have a group of patients, whose plasma drug levels are measured and known at time=0 (no further drug is given to the patients afterwards.). I try to know, after how long time the drug will be completely cleared out from these patients. Naturally I used NONMEM to fit the patients' V and CL, in order to get plasma concentration change profile.
However seems NONMEM only accepts DOSE is a positive number. If DOSE=0, NONMEM can't perform the fitting. Can anyone kindly give me some suggestions to solve this problem? Thanks a lot in advance!
