Abstract
The use of a bayesian method for estimating the shelf-life of pharmace utical formulations is evaluated and compared with classical linear re gression. Using three real data sets, the greater flexibility provided by the bayesian approach is demonstrated. In particular, the bayesian approach enabled the consideration of cases when the error distributi on is non-normal. However much more computation is required with the b ayesian method.
