Compute NCA parameters for each interval for each subject.

The pk.nca function computes the NCA parameters from a PKNCAdata object. All options for the calculation and input data are set in prior functions (PKNCAconc, PKNCAdose, and PKNCAdata). Options for calculations are set either in PKNCAdata or with the current default options in PKNCA.options.

Usage

pk.nca(data, verbose = FALSE)

Arguments

data

A PKNCAdata object

verbose

Indicate, by message(), the current state of calculation.

Value

A PKNCAresults object.

Details

When performing calculations, all time results are relative to the start of the interval. For example, if an interval starts at 168 hours, ends at 192 hours, and and the maximum concentration is at 169 hours, tmax=169-168=1.
