Theoph {datasets} | R Documentation |
The Theoph
data frame has 132 rows and 5 columns of data from
an experiment on the pharmacokinetics of theophylline.
Theoph
This data frame contains the following columns:
1
, ..., 12
identifying the subject on whom the observation was made. The
ordering is by increasing maximum concentration of theophylline
observed.
Boeckmann, Sheiner and Beal (1994) report data from a study by Dr. Robert Upton of the kinetics of the anti-asthmatic drug theophylline. Twelve subjects were given oral doses of theophylline then serum concentrations were measured at 11 time points over the next 25 hours.
These data are analyzed in Davidian and Giltinan (1995) and Pinheiro
and Bates (2000) using a two-compartment open pharmacokinetic model,
for which a self-starting model function, SSfol
, is available.
