A log-normal distribution of inter-individual random variability was assumed. Residual random variability was modeled using an additive error model. Non-parametric bootstrap analysis was repeated 2000 times. RSE relative standard error = SE/estimate × 100 (%), MAP mean arterial pressure, WT actual body weight, kr elimination clearance (mL/min), Vc0 central volume of distribution at baseline (mL), Vt0 peripheral volume of distribution at baseline (mL), kt distributional clearance between central and peripheral compartment (mL/min)
