Already a PK-model? [Software]
Dear Helmut!
How old?
As far as I know your model is correct for any renally cleared drug (regardless how many compartments are 'upstream' of the excretion process). But you can't linearize this function?! You do need some nonlinear fitting software. Comes close to 'compartmental models are not acceptable'.
Maybe that's the reason behind Far Side's method - ready to be checked by the assessor's pocket calculator.
Not a very crowed place yet.
