The Indometh data frame has 66 rows and 3 columns of data on
the pharmacokinetics of indometacin (or, older spelling,
‘indomethacin’).
Indometh
This object of class c("nfnGroupedData", "nfGroupedData",
"groupedData", "data.frame") containing the following columns:
an ordered factor with containing the subject codes. The ordering is according to increasing maximum response.
a numeric vector of times at which blood samples were drawn (hr).
a numeric vector of plasma concentrations of indometacin (mcg/ml).
Each of the six subjects were given an intravenous injection of indometacin.
This dataset was originally part of package nlme, and that has
methods (including for [, as.data.frame, plot and
print) for its grouped-data classes.
