Bayesian individualization of pharmacokinetics: simple implementation and comparison with non-Bayesian methods

L B Sheiner, S L Beal

    Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences
    |December 1, 1982
    PubMed
    Summary

    Individualizing drug dosage requires estimating pharmacokinetic parameters. A Bayesian method, implemented for microcomputers, proved more precise than other methods for estimating theophylline clearance, with 20-70% lower error magnitudes.
