Pharmacokinetic parameters

CL (L/h) = 4.58·CrCL/100·eη1

V (L) = 1.53 ·WGT·eη2

Inter-individual variability

η1 ~ N(0, ω12) and η2 ~ N(0, ω22)

ω1= 0.389 and ω2 = 0.374

Residual errors

Obs = Pred·(1 + ε1) + ε2

ε1~ N(0, σ12) and ε2 ~ N(0, σ22)

σ1 = 0.199 and σ2 = 2.4 (mg/L)

CL, clearance; V, volume of distribution; CrCL, creatinine clearance in ml/min; WGT, body weight in kg; Obs, observed concentration; Pred, predicted concentration
