Hi Carlos, It is commonly used. For most datasets, there will be at least one observation that occurs before dosing to estimate the baseline value, and in almost every scenario, the modeling dataset should mirror the real world actions. So, there is no issue with it, and usually you will have an EVID=0 before the first dose.

Thank you, Carlos,
