Dear members of nmusers:

I am trying to do PopPK analysis of plasma concentration-time data
obtained from a non-steady-state PK study of a drug in hamsters (at 2
doses; 10 mg/kg and 20 mg/kg, p.o for 5 consecutive days at interval
of 24 hr).

after executing the model file(one compartment model with first order
absorption), the result indicated successful minimization, but with
one WARNING messgae :

"*Large relative standard errors found, *

*additive RUV 0.363451"*

Please suggest What should I do next?....How I can reduce the RSE and
what should be my next step to improve the model

the model file which i used is  as follows
