A tulathromycin concentration and pharmacokinetic parameters in plasma and lung tissue from healthy pigs and Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae (App)‐infected pigs were compared. Tulathromycin was administered intramuscularly (i.m.) to all pigs at a single dose of 2.5 mg/kg. Blood and lung tissue samples were collected during 33 days postdrug application. Tulathromycin concentration in plasma and lung was determined by high‐performance liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry (LC‐MS/MS) method. The mean maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) in healthy pigs was 586 ± 71 ng/mL, reached by 0.5 h, while the mean value for Cmax of tulathromycin in infected pigs was 386 ± 97 ng/mL after 0.5 h. The mean maximum tulathromycin concentration in lung of healthy group was calculated as 3412 ± 748 ng/g, detected at 12 h, while in pigs with App, the highest concentration in lung was 3337 ± 937 ng/g, determined at 48 h postdosing. The higher plasma and lung concentrations in pigs with no pulmonary inflammation were observed at the first time points sampling after tulathromycin administration, but slower elimination with elimination half‐life t1/2el = 126 h in plasma and t1/2el = 165 h in lung, as well as longer drug persistent in infected pigs, was found.  相似文献

The objective of this study was to assess the pharmacokinetics of tulathromycin in pulmonary and bronchial epithelial lining fluid (PELF and BELF) from pigs. Clinically healthy pigs were allocated to two groups of 36 animals each. All animals were treated with tulathromycin (2.5 mg/kg/i.m). Animals in group 2 were also challenged intratracheally with lipopolysaccharide from Escherichia coli 3 h prior to tulathromycin administration. Both PELF and BELF samples were harvested using bronchoalveolar lavage fluid and bronchial micro‐sampling probes, respectively. Samples were taken for 17 days post‐tulathromycin administration. No statistical differences in the concentration of tulathromycin were observed in PELF between groups. The concentration vs. time profile in BELF was evaluated only in Group 1. Tulathromycin distributed rapidly and extensively into the airway compartments. The time to maximal (Tmax) concentration was 6 h postdrug administration in PELF but 72 h post‐tulathromycin administration for BELF. In group 2, the Tmax was seen at 24 h post‐tulathromycin administration. The area under the concentration time curve (h*ng/mL) was 522 000, 348 000 and 1 290 000 for PELFGroup‐1, PELFGroup‐2, and BELFGroup‐1, respectively. Tulathromycin not only distributed rapidly into intra‐airway compartments at relatively high concentrations but also resided in the airway lining fluid for a long time (>4 days).  相似文献

Eight adult female dairy goats received one subcutaneous administration of tulathromycin at a dosage of 2.5 mg/kg body weight. Blood and milk samples were assayed for tulathromycin and the common fragment of tulathromycin, respectively, using liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry. Pharmacokinetic disposition of tulathromycin was analyzed by a noncompartmental approach. Mean plasma pharmacokinetic parameters (±SD) following single‐dose administration of tulathromycin were as follows: Cmax (121.54 ± 19.01 ng/mL); Tmax (12 ± 12–24 h); area under the curve AUC0→∞ (8324.54 ± 1706.56 ng·h/mL); terminal‐phase rate constant λz (0.01 ± 0.002 h−1); and terminal‐phase rate constant half‐life t1/2λz (67.20 h; harmonic). Mean milk pharmacokinetic parameters (±SD) following 45 days of sampling were as follows: Cmax (1594 ± 379.23 ng/mL); Tmax (12 ± 12–36 h); AUC0→∞ (72,250.51 ± 18,909.57 ng·h/mL); λz (0.005 ± 0.001 h−1); and t1/2λz (155.28 h; harmonic). All goats had injection‐site reactions that diminished in size over time. The conclusions from this study were that tulathromycin residues are detectable in milk samples from adult goats for at least 45 days following subcutaneous administration, this therapeutic option should be reserved for cases where other treatment options have failed, and goat milk should be withheld from the human food chain for at least 45 days following tulathromycin administration.  相似文献

Basic information related to the pharmacokinetics of sildenafil in dogs is scarce. This study aimed to describe the pharmacokinetic properties of oral sildenafil and determine the effect of feeding and dose proportionality. The effect of feeding on pharmacokinetics of sildenafil (1 mg/kg) was investigated using a crossover study with six dogs. In addition, the dose proportionality of sildenafil ranging 1–4 mg/kg was evaluated using five dogs in the fasted states. The plasma concentrations of sildenafil were determined using high‐performance liquid chromatography, and pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated using a noncompartmental analysis. Sildenafil administrations were well tolerated in all studies. Feeding reduced the area under the curve extrapolated to infinity (AUCinf) and the maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) significantly. The elimination half‐life (T1/2) did not differ between the fasted and the fed states. For dose proportionality, nonproportional increases in AUCinf and Cmax at 1–4 mg/kg doses were detected by a power model analysis.  相似文献

The aim of this study was to determine the pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics of enrofloxacin (ENR) and danofloxacin (DNX) following intravenous (IV) and intramuscular (IM) administrations in premature calves. The study was performed on twenty‐four calves that were determined to be premature by anamnesis and general clinical examination. Premature calves were randomly divided into four groups (six premature calves/group) according to a parallel pharmacokinetic (PK) design as follows: ENR‐IV (10 mg/kg, IV), ENR‐IM (10 mg/kg, IM), DNX‐IV (8 mg/kg, IV), and DNX‐IM (8 mg/kg, IM). Plasma samples were collected for the determination of tested drugs by high‐pressure liquid chromatography with UV detector and analyzed by noncompartmental methods. Mean PK parameters of ENR and DNX following IV administration were as follows: elimination half‐life (t1/2λz) 11.16 and 17.47 hr, area under the plasma concentration–time curve (AUC0‐48) 139.75 and 38.90 hr*µg/ml, and volume of distribution at steady‐state 1.06 and 4.45 L/kg, respectively. Total body clearance of ENR and DNX was 0.07 and 0.18 L hr?1 kg?1, respectively. The PK parameters of ENR and DNX following IM injection were t1/2λz 21.10 and 28.41 hr, AUC0‐48 164.34 and 48.32 hr*µg/ml, respectively. The bioavailability (F) of ENR and DNX was determined to be 118% and 124%, respectively. The mean AUC0‐48CPR/AUC0‐48ENR ratio was 0.20 and 0.16 after IV and IM administration, respectively, in premature calves. The results showed that ENR (10 mg/kg) and DNX (8 mg/kg) following IV and IM administration produced sufficient plasma concentration for AUC0‐24/minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and maximum concentration (Cmax)/MIC ratios for susceptible bacteria, with the MIC90 of 0.5 and 0.03 μg/ml, respectively. These findings may be helpful in planning the dosage regimen for ENR and DNX, but there is a need for further study in naturally infected premature calves.  相似文献

Devil's claw is used for the treatment of inflammatory symptoms and degenerative disorders in horses since many years, but without the substantive pharmacokinetic data. The pharmacokinetic parameters of harpagoside, the main active constituent of Harpagophytum procumbens DC ex Meisn., were evaluated in equine plasma after administration of Harpagophytum extract FB 8858 in an open, single‐dose, two‐treatment, two‐period, randomized cross‐over design. Six horses received a single dose of Harpagophytum extract, corresponding to 5 mg/kg BM harpagoside, and after 7 days washout period, 10 mg/kg BM harpagoside via nasogastric tube. Plasma samples at certain time points (before and 0–24 hr after administration) were collected, cleaned up by solid‐phase extraction, and harpagoside concentrations were determined by LC‐MS/MS using apigenin‐7‐glucoside as internal standard. Plasma concentration‐time data and relevant parameters were described by noncompartmental model through PKSolver software. Harpagoside could be detected up to 9 hr after administration. Cmax was found at 25.59 and 55.46 ng/ml, t1/2 at 2.53 and 2.32 hr, respectively, and tmax at 1 hr in both trials. AUC0–inf was 70.46 and 117.85 ng hr ml?1, respectively. A proportional relationship between dose, Cmax and AUC was observed. Distribution (Vz/F) was 259.04 and 283.83 L/kg and clearance (CL/F) 70.96 and 84.86 L hr?1 kg?1, respectively. Treatment of horses with Harpagophytum extract did not cause any clinically detectable side effects.  相似文献

Respiratory tract infections are common in farmed North American white‐tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus). Tulathromycin is approved for use in cattle but not deer but is often employed to treat deer. The pharmacokinetic properties and lung and muscle concentrations of tulathromycin in white‐tailed deer were investigated. Tulathromycin was administered to 10 deer, and then, serum, lung, and muscle tulathromycin concentrations were measured using liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC–MS). The mean maximal serum tulathromycin concentration in deer was 359 ng/mL at 1.3 h postinjection. The mean area under the serum concentration–time curve, apparent volume of distribution, apparent clearance, and half‐life was 4883 ng·h/mL, 208 L/kg, 0.5 L/h/kg, and 281 h (11.7 days), respectively. The maximal tulathromycin concentration in lung and muscle homogenate from a single animal was 4657 ng/g (14 days) and 2264 ng/g (7 days), respectively. The minimum concentrations in lung and muscle were 39.4 ng/g (56 days) and 9.1 ng/g (56 days), respectively. Based on similarity in maximal serum concentrations between deer and cattle and high lung concentrations in deer, we suggest the recommended cattle dosage is effective in deer. Tissue concentrations persisted for 56 days, suggesting a need for longer withdrawal times in deer than cattle. Further tissue distribution and depletion studies are necessary to understand tulathromycin persistence in deer tissue; clinical efficacy studies are needed to confirm the appropriate dosage regimen in deer.  相似文献

Tulathromycin, a long acting macrolide antibiotic, has demonstrated efficacy against respiratory pathogens including Mycoplasma bovis and M. hyopneumoniae. A pharmacokinetic study was performed to evaluate the clinical applicability of tulathromycin in desert tortoises following a single intramuscular dose of 5 mg/kg. A single blood sample was collected from 110 different desert tortoises at 0.25, 0.5, 1, 4, 8, 24, 48, 72, 120, and 240 h following drug administration. Plasma concentrations of the parent form of tulathromycin were measured using liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry. As each tortoise was only bled once, pharmacokinetic parameters were initially estimated using a naïve pooled data approach. Given the variability in the data, population‐based compartmental modeling was also performed. Using nonparametric population compartmental modeling, a two‐compartment model with first‐order absorption and elimination best fit the data. An observed Cmax of 36.2 ± 29.7 μg/mL was detected at 0.25 h (observed Tmax). The elimination half‐life (T½el) was long (77.1 h) resulting in detectable plasma concentrations 240 h postadministration. This study represents a preliminary step in evaluating the utility of tulathromycin in chelonian species and demonstrates that population data modeling offers advantages for estimating pharmacokinetic parameters where sparse data sampling occurs and there is substantial variability in the data.  相似文献

Tulathromycin is a triamilide antibiotic that maintains therapeutic concentrations for an extended period of time. The drug is approved for the treatment of respiratory disease in cattle and swine and is occasionally used in goats. To investigate the pharmacokinetics of tulathromycin in meat goats, 10 healthy Boer goats were administered a single 2.5 mg/kg subcutaneous dose of tulathromycin. Plasma concentrations were measured by ultra-high pressure liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC–MS/MS) detection. Plasma maximal drug concentration (Cmax) was 633 ± 300 ng/ml (0.40 ± 0.26 h post-subcutaneous injection). The half-life of tulathromycin in goats was 110 ± 19.9 h. Tulathromycin was rapidly absorbed and distributed widely after subcutaneous injection 33 ± 6 L/kg. The mean AUC of the group was 12,500 ± 2020 h ng/mL for plasma. In this study, it was determined that the pharmacokinetics of tulathromycin after a single 2.5 mg/kg SC injection in goats were very similar to what has been previously reported in cattle.  相似文献

Huang, R. A., Letendre, L. T., Banav, N., Fischer, J., Somerville, B. Pharmacokinetics of gamithromycin in cattle with comparison of plasma and lung tissue concentrations and plasma antibacterial activity. J. vet. Pharmacol. Therap. 33 , 227–237. The pharmacokinetics (PK) and dose proportionality of gamithromycin (ZACTRAN®), a novel azalide, after a single intravenous (i.v.) dose of 3 mg/kg or subcutaneous (s.c.) injection at 3, 6 and 9 mg/kg body weight were studied in 13 male castrate and 13 female Angus cattle. Following i.v. administration, the mean area under the curve extrapolated to infinity (AUCinf) was 4.28 ± 0.536 μg·h/mL, and mean elimination half‐life (t1/2) was 44.9 ± 4.67 h, with a large volume of distribution (Vss) of 24.9 ± 2.99 L/kg and a high clearance rate (Clobs) of 712 ± 95.7 mL/h/kg. For cattle treated with s.c. injection of 3, 6 or 9 mg/kg, mean AUCinf values were 4.55 ± 0.690, 9.42 ± 1.11 and 12.2 ± 1.13 μg·h/mL, respectively, and the mean elimination half‐lives (t1/2) were 51.2 ± 6.10, 50.8 ± 3.80 and 58.5 ± 5.50 h. Gamithromycin was well absorbed and fully bioavailable (97.6–112%) after s.c. administration. No statistically significant (α = 0.05) gender differences in the AUCInf or elimination half‐life values were observed. Dose proportionality was established based on AUCInf over the range of 0.5 to 1.5 times of the recommended dosage of 6 mg/kg of body weight. Further investigations were conducted to assess plasma PK, lung/plasma concentration ratios and plasma antibacterial activity using 36 cattle. The average maximum gamithromycin concentration measured in whole lung homogenate was 18 500 ng/g at first sampling time of 1 day (～24 h) after treatment. The ratios of lung to plasma concentration were 265, 410, 329 and 247 at 1, 5, 10 and 15 days postdose. The lung AUCinf was 194 times higher than the corresponding plasma AUCinf. The apparent elimination half‐life for gamithromycin in lung was 90.4 h (～4 days). Antibacterial activity was observed with plasma collected at 6 h postdose with a corresponding average gamithromycin plasma concentration of 261 ng/mL. In vitro plasma protein binding in bovine plasma was determined to be 26.0 ± 0.60% bound over a range of 0.1–3.0 μg/mL of gamithromycin. The dose proportionality of AUC, high bioavailability, rapid and extensive distribution to lung tissue and low level of plasma protein binding are beneficial PK parameters for an antimicrobial drug used for the treatment and prevention of bovine respiratory disease.  相似文献

Clinically normal koalas (n = 19) received a single dose of intravenous (i.v.) chloramphenicol sodium succinate (SS) (25 mg/kg; n = 6), subcutaneous (s.c.) chloramphenicol SS (60 mg/kg; n = 7) or s.c. chloramphenicol base (60 mg/kg; n = 6). Serial plasma samples were collected over 24–48 h, and chloramphenicol concentrations were determined using a validated high‐performance liquid chromatography assay. The median (range) apparent clearance (CL/F) and elimination half‐life (t1/2) of chloramphenicol after i.v. chloramphenicol SS administration were 0.52 (0.35–0.99) L/h/kg and 1.13 (0.76–1.40) h, respectively. Although the area under the concentration–time curve was comparable for the two s.c. formulations, the absorption rate‐limited disposition of chloramphenicol base resulted in a lower median Cmax (2.52; range 0.75–6.80 μg/mL) and longer median tmax (8.00; range 4.00–12.00 h) than chloramphenicol SS (Cmax 20.37, range 13.88–25.15 μg/mL; tmax 1.25, range 1.00–2.00 h). When these results were compared with susceptibility data for human Chlamydia isolates, the expected efficacy of the current chloramphenicol dosing regimen used in koalas to treat chlamydiosis remains uncertain and at odds with clinical observations.  相似文献

The purpose of this study was to determine the pharmacokinetic interaction between ivermectin (0.4 mg/kg) and praziquantel (10 mg/kg) administered either alone or co‐administered to dogs after oral treatment. Twelve healthy cross‐bred dogs (weighing 18–21 kg, aged 1–3 years) were allocated randomly into two groups of six dogs (four females, two males) each. In first group, the tablet forms of praziquantel and ivermectin were administered using a crossover design with a 15‐day washout period, respectively. Second group received tablet form of ivermectin plus praziquantel. The plasma concentrations of ivermectin and praziquantel were determined by high‐performance liquid chromatography using a fluorescence and ultraviolet detector, respectively. The pharmacokinetic parameters of ivermectin following oral alone‐administration were as follows: elimination half‐life (t1/2λz) 110 ± 11.06 hr, area under the plasma concentration–time curve (AUC0–∞) 7,805 ± 1,768 hr.ng/ml, maximum concentration (Cmax) 137 ± 48.09 ng/ml, and time to reach Cmax (Tmax) 14.0 ± 4.90 hr. The pharmacokinetic parameters of praziquantel following oral alone‐administration were as follows: t1/2λz 7.39 ± 3.86 hr, AUC0–∞ 4,301 ± 1,253 hr.ng/ml, Cmax 897 ± 245 ng/ml, and Tmax 5.33 ± 0.82 hr. The pharmacokinetics of ivermectin and praziquantel were not changed, except Tmax of praziquantel in the combined group. In conclusion, the combined formulation of ivermectin and praziquantel can be preferred in the treatment and prevention of diseases caused by susceptible parasites in dogs because no pharmacokinetic interaction was determined between them.  相似文献

The pharmacokinetics of maropitant were evaluated in beagle dogs dosed orally with Cerenia® tablets (Pfizer Animal Health) once daily for 14 consecutive days at either 2 mg/kg or 8 mg/kg bodyweight. Noncompartmental pharmacokinetic analysis was performed on the plasma concentration data to measure the AUC0–24 (after first and last doses), Ct (trough concentration—measured 24 h after each dose), Cmax (after first and last doses), tmax (after first and last doses), λz (terminal disposition rate constant; after last dose), t1/2 (after last dose), and CL/F (oral clearance; after last dose). Maropitant accumulation in plasma was substantially greater after fourteen daily 8 mg/kg doses than after fourteen daily 2 mg/kg doses as reflected in the AUC0–24 accumulation ratio of 4.81 at 8 mg/kg and 2.46 at 2 mg/kg. This is most likely due to previously identified nonlinear pharmacokinetics of maropitant in which high doses (8 mg/kg) saturate the metabolic clearance mechanisms and delay drug elimination. To determine the time to reach steady‐state maropitant plasma levels, a nonlinear model was fit to the least squares (LS) means maropitant Ct values for each treatment group. Based on this model, 90% of steady‐state was determined to occur at approximately four doses for daily 2 mg/kg oral dosing and eight doses for daily 8 mg/kg oral dosing.  相似文献

The pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of tulathromycin, administered to calves subcutaneously at the dosage of 2.5 mg/kg, was established in serum, inflamed (exudate), and noninflamed (transudate) fluids in a tissue cage model. The PK profile of tulathromycin was also established in pneumonic calves. For Mannheimia haemolytica and Pasteurella multocida, tulathromycin minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) were approximately 50 times lower in calf serum than in Mueller–Hinton broth. The breakpoint value of the PK/pharmacodynamic (PD) index (AUC(0–24 h)/MIC) to achieve a bactericidal effect was estimated from in vitro time‐kill studies to be approximately 24 h for M. haemolytica and P. multocida. A population model was developed from healthy and pneumonic calves and, using Monte Carlo simulations, PK/PD cutoffs required for the development of antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) were determined. The population distributions of tulathromycin doses were established by Monte Carlo computation (MCC). The computation predicted a target attainment rate (TAR) for a tulathromycin dosage of 2.5 mg/kg of 66% for M. haemolytica and 87% for P. multocida. The findings indicate that free tulathromycin concentrations in serum suffice to explain the efficacy of single‐dose tulathromycin in clinical use, and that a dosage regimen can be computed for tulathromycin using classical PK/PD concepts.  相似文献

Ribavirin (RBV) is a synthetic guanosine analog that is used as a drug against various viral diseases in humans. The in vitro antiviral effects of ribavirin against porcine viruses were demonstrated in several studies. The purposes of this study were to evaluate the adverse effects and pharmacokinetics of ribavirin following its intramuscular (IM) injection in pigs. Ribavirin was formulated as a double‐oil emulsion (RBV‐DOE) and gel (RBV‐Gel), which were injected into the pigs as single‐dose IM injections. After injection of RBV, all of the pigs were monitored. The collected serum and whole blood samples were analyzed by liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry and complete blood count analysis, respectively. All of the ribavirin‐treated pigs showed significant decreases in body weight compared to the control groups. Severe clinical signs including dyspnea, anorexia, weakness, and depression were present in ribavirin‐treated pigs until 5 days postinjection (dpi). The ribavirin‐treated groups showed significant decrease in the number of red blood cells and hemoglobin concentration until 8 dpi. The mean half‐life of the RBV‐DOE and RBV‐Gel was 27.949 ± 2.783 h and 37.374 ± 3.502 h, respectively. The mean peak serum concentration (Cmax) and area under the serum concentration–time curve from time zero to infinity (AUCinf) of RBV‐DOE were 8340.000 ± 2562.577 ng/mL and 16 0095.430 ± 61 253.400 h·ng/mL, respectively. The Cmax and AUCinf of RBV‐Gel were 15 300.000 ± 3764.306 ng/mL and 207526.260 ± 63656.390 h·ng/mL, respectively. The results of this study provided the index of side effect and pharmacokinetics of ribavirin in pigs, which should be considered before clinical application.  相似文献

The disposition of plasma glycopyrrolate (GLY) is characterized by a three‐compartment pharmacokinetic model after a 1‐mg bolus intravenous dose to Standardbred horses. The median (range) plasma clearance (Clp), volume of distribution of the central compartment (V1), volume of distribution at steady‐state (Vss), and area under the plasma concentration–time curve (AUC0‐inf) were 16.7 (13.6–21.7) mL/min/kg, 0.167 (0.103–0.215) L/kg, 3.69 (0.640–38.73) L/kg, and 2.58 (2.28–2.88) ng*h/mL, respectively. Renal clearance of GLY was characterized by a median (range) of 2.65 (1.92–3.59) mL/min/kg and represented approximately 11.3–24.7% of the total plasma clearance. As a result of these studies, we conclude that the majority of GLY is cleared through hepatic mechanisms because of the limited extent of renal clearance of GLY and absence of plasma esterase activity on GLY metabolism. Although the disposition of GLY after intravenous administration to Standardbred horses was similar to that in Thoroughbred horses, differences in some pharmacokinetic parameter estimates were evident. Such differences could be attributed to breed differences or study conditions. The research could provide valuable data to support regulatory guidelines for GLY in Standardbred horses.  相似文献

Britzi, M., Gross, M., Lavy, E., Soback, S., Steinman, A. Bioavailability and pharmacokinetics of metronidazole in fed and fasted horses. J. vet. Pharmacol. Therap. 33 , 511–514. Metronidazole (1‐[2‐hydroxyethyl]‐2‐methyl‐5‐nitroimidazole) is a bactericidal antimicrobial agent used for treatment of infectious diseases caused by anaerobic bacteria and protozoa. Pharmacokinetics of metronidazole following its administration to horses was previously described ( Sweeney et al., 1986 ; Baggot et al., 1988 ; Specht et al., 1992 ; Steinman et al., 2000 ). The bioavailability (F) was 85% (ranging from 57% to 105%) and the time to reach maximum serum concentration (tmax) was 1–2 h after oral dose at 25 mg/kg body weight ( Sweeney et al., 1986 ). Baggot et al. (1988) found that F was 74.5% (ranging from 58.4% to 91.5%) and tmax was 1.5 h after oral dose at 20 mg/kg body weight. Specht et al. (1992) reported that F was 97% (ranging from 79% to 111%) and tmax was 40 min after oral dose at 15 mg/kg body weight. In an earlier study by our group F was 74% and tmax was 65 min after oral dose at 20 mg/kg body weight ( Steinman et al., 2000 ). These individual variations in F might be partially explained by the effect of feed, among other factors, mainly on metronidazole absorption. Interactions between food and drugs may reduce or increase the drug effect. The majority of clinically relevant food–drug interactions are caused by food‐induced changes on the bioavailability of the drug ( Schmidt & Dalhoff, 2002 ). In dogs, absorption of metronidazole is enhanced when given with food, but delayed in humans ( Plumb, 1995 ). Although, metronidazole is used commonly to treat various clinical conditions in horses with relatively little adverse effects ( Sweeney et al., 1991 ), narrow margin of safety was suggested because histological evidence of peripheral neurotoxicity and hepatotoxicity were noted in horses treated with doses as low as 30 mg/kg body weight every 12 h orally for 30 days ( White et al., 1996 ). For drugs with a narrow therapeutic index, even small changes in dose–response effects can have significant consequences ( Schmidt & Dalhoff, 2002 ).  相似文献

A Mycoplasma gallisepticum–Escherichia coli mixed infection model was developed in broiler chickens, which was applied to pharmacokinetics of valnemulin in the present experiment. The velogenic M. gallisepticum standard strain S6 was rejuvenated to establish the animal model, and the wild E. coli strain O78 was injected as supplementary inoculum to induce chronic respiratory disease in chickens. The disease model was evaluated based on its clinical signs, histopathological examination, bacteriological assay, and serum plate agglutination test. The pharmacokinetics of valnemulin in infected chickens was determined by intramuscular (i.m.) injection and oral administration (per os, p.o.) of a single dose of 10 mg/kg body weight (BW). Plasma samples were analyzed by liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry. The plasma concentration–time curve of valnemulin was analyzed using the noncompartmental method. After the i.m. administration, the mean values of Cmax, Tmax, AUClast, MRT, CLβ/F, Vz/F, and t1⁄2β, were 27.94 μg/mL, 1.57 h, 171.63 μg·h/mL, 4.51 h, 0.06 L/h/kg, 0.56 L/kg, and 6.50 h, respectively. By contrast, the corresponding values after p.o. administration were 5.93 μg/mL, 7.14 h, 47.60 μg·h/mL, 9.80 h, 0.22 L/h/kg, 3.35 L/kg, and 10.60 h. The disposition of valnemulin was retarded in infected chickens after both modes of extravascular administration as compared to the healthy controls. More attention should be given to monitoring the therapeutic efficacy and adverse effects of mixed infection because of higher required plasma drug concentration and enlarged AUC with valnemulin treatment.  相似文献

In this study, the pharmacokinetic profile of flumequine (FMQ) was investigated in blunt snout bream (Megalobrama amblycephala) after intravascular (3 mg/kg body weight (b.w.)) and oral (50 mg/kg b.w.) administrations. The plasma samples were determinedby ultra‐performance liquid chromatography (UPLC) with fluorescence detection. After intravascular administration, plasma concentration–time curves were best described by a two‐compartment open model. The distribution half‐life (t1/2α), elimination half‐life (t1/2β), and area under the concentration–time curve (AUC) of blunt snout bream were 0.6 h, 25.0 h, and 10612.7 h·μg/L, respectively. After oral administration, a two‐compartment open model with first‐order absorption was also best fit the data of plasma. The t1/2α, t1/2β, peak concentration (Cmax), time‐to‐peak concentration (Tmax), and AUC of blunt snout bream were estimated to be 2.5 h, 19.7 h, 3946.5 μg/L, 1.4 h, and 56618.1 h. μg/L, respectively. The oral bioavailability (F) was 32.0%. The pharmacokinetics of FMQ in blunt snout bream displayed low bioavailability, rapid absorption, and rapid elimination.  相似文献

The pharmacokinetic–pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) modeling of enrofloxacin data using mutant prevention concentration (MPC) of enrofloxacin was conducted in febrile buffalo calves to optimize dosage regimen and to prevent the emergence of antimicrobial resistance. The serum peak concentration (Cmax), terminal half‐life (t1/2K10), apparent volume of distribution (Vd(area)/F), and mean residence time (MRT) of enrofloxacin were 1.40 ± 0.27 μg/mL, 7.96 ± 0.86 h, 7.74 ± 1.26 L/kg, and 11.57 ± 1.01 h, respectively, following drug administration at dosage 12 mg/kg by intramuscular route. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC), minimum bactericidal concentration, and MPC of enrofloxacin against Pasteurella multocida were 0.055, 0.060, and 1.45 μg/mL, respectively. Modeling of ex vivo growth inhibition data to the sigmoid Emax equation provided AUC24 h/MIC values to produce effects of bacteriostatic (33 h), bactericidal (39 h), and bacterial eradication (41 h). The estimated daily dosage of enrofloxacin in febrile buffalo calves was 3.5 and 8.4 mg/kg against P. multocida/pathogens having MIC90 ≤0.125 and 0.30 μg/mL, respectively, based on the determined AUC24 h / MIC values by modeling PK/PD data. The lipopolysaccharide‐induced fever had no direct effect on the antibacterial activity of the enrofloxacin and alterations in PK of the drug, and its metabolite will be beneficial for its use to treat infectious diseases caused by sensitive pathogens in buffalo species. In addition, in vitro MPC data in conjunction with in vivo PK data indicated that clinically it would be easier to eradicate less susceptible strains of P. multocida in diseased calves.  相似文献
