)Arguments
- obsData
 Observed concentration-time data.
- idNmObs
 Column name for ID in observed data. Default is "ID"
- timeNmObs
 Column name for time in observed data. Default is "TIME"
- concNmObs
 Column name for concentration in observed data. Default is "DV"
- doseType
 Steady-state (ss) or non-steady-state (ns) dose. Default is "ns"
- doseTime
 Dose time prior to the first observation for steady-state data. Default is
NULL- Tau
 Dosing interval for steady-state data. Default is
NULL- filterNm
 Column name to filter data. Default is
NULL- filterExcl
 Row exclusion criteria based on the column defined by
filterNm. This can be numeric value or logical condition (e.g. c(1, 2, "<20", ">=100", "!=100")). Default isNULL- str1Nm
 Column name for 1st level population stratifier. Default is
NULL- str1
 Stratification ID of the members within 1st level stratification (e.g c(1,2)). Default is
NULL- str2Nm
 Column name for 2nd level population stratifier. Default is
NULL- str2
 Stratification ID of the members within 2nd level stratification (e.g c(1,2)). Default is
NULL- str3Nm
 Column name for 3rd level population stratifier. Default is
NULL- str3
 Stratification ID of the members within 3rd level stratification (e.g c(1,2)). Default is
NULL- AUCTimeRange
 User-defined window of time used to estimate AUC. Default is
NULL- LambdaTimeRange
 User-defined window of time to estimate elimination rate-constant. This argument lets the user to choose a specific window of time to be used to estimate the elimination rate constant (Lambda) in the elimination phase. The accepted format for the input to this argument is a numeric array of two elements;
c(14,24)will estimate the Lambda using the data within the time units 14 to 24. Default isNULL- adminType
 Route of administration. Allowed options are iv-bolus, iv-infusion or extravascular. Default is "extravascular"
- TI
 Infusion duration. If TI is a single numeric value, TI is the same for all individuals. If TI is the name of a column with numeric data present in the data set, TI is set to the unique value of the column for a given individual. Default is
NULL- doseAmtNm
 Column name to specify dose amount. Default is
NULL- dateColNm
 column name for date if used (e.g. "Date", "DATE"). Default is
NULL- dateFormat
 date format (D-M-Y, D/M/Y or any other combination of D,M,Y). Default is
NULL- timeFormat
 time format (number, H:M, H:M:S). Default is "number"
- concUnit
 Unit of concentration (e.g. "ng/mL"). Default is
NULL- timeUnit
 Unit of time (e.g. "h"). Default is
NULL- doseUnit
 Unit of dose amount (e.g. "ng"). Default is
NULL- blqNm
 Name of BLQ column if used to exclude data. Default is
NULL- blqExcl
 Excluded BLQ value; either a numeric value or a logical condition (e.g. 1 or ">=1" or c(1,">3")). Used only if the
blqNmis notNULL. Default is "1"- evid
 If
TRUEEVID is used to filter data. Default isTRUE- evidIncl
 Included values in EVID. Default is "0"
- mdv
 If
TRUEMDV is used to include data when MDV=0. Default isFALSE
