A series of in vivo, ex vivo and in vitro studies were conducted to determine the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties of cefovecin, a new injectable cephalosporin, in dogs. Absolute bioavailability was determined in a two-phase cross-over study in dogs receiving 8 mg/kg bodyweight (b.w.) of cefovecin by either subcutaneous (s.c.) or intravenous (i.v.) route. After s.c. administration, cefovecin was fully bioavailable (100%), the mean maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) was 121 microg/mL and the mean apparent elimination half-life (t1/2) was 133 h. Clearance was measured to be 0.76 mL/h/kg after i.v. dosing. The concentration of cefovecin in urine measured 14 days after s.c. administration was 2.9 microg/mL. Plasma protein binding was determined by equilibrium dialysis; over concentrations ranging from 10 to 100 microg/mL (i.e. up to the approximate Cmax following an 8 mg/kg dose), protein binding of 98.7% to 96.0% was observed, however, binding was lower at higher concentrations. Total and free concentrations of cefovecin were determined in plasma, transudate and exudate collected from dogs previously implanted subcutaneously with tissue cages. Mean peak concentrations of free cefovecin were almost three times higher in transudate than in plasma and remained above 0.25 microg/mL for 19 days. The ex vivo antibacterial killing activity (vs. Staphylococcus intermedius, MIC 0.25 microg/mL) was measured in serum, transudate and exudate collected from dogs which had received 8 mg/kg b.w. of cefovecin subcutaneously. Transudate exhibited higher antimicrobial killing activity than serum. Activity in serum and exudate exhibited a mean reduction in bacterial counts of S. intermedius of at least three log units up to 72 h postadministration. Bactericidal activity (>3 log10 reduction of bacterial counts) was observed in transudate up to 12 days postadministration. The slow elimination and long lasting ex vivo antibacterial killing activity following administration of cefovecin are desirable pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic attributes for an antimicrobial drug with 14-day dosing intervals.  相似文献

Pharmacokinetics of danofloxacin 18% in lactating sheep and goats   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  
The pharmacokinetics of danofloxacin administered at 6 mg/kg bodyweight by the intravenous and subcutaneous (s.c.) routes were determined in sheep and goats. Milk concentrations were also determined following s.c. administration. Plasma and milk concentrations of danofloxacin were measured using high-performance liquid chromatography. The plasma concentration-time curves were analysed by noncompartmental methods. Danofloxacin had a similar large volume of distribution at steady state in sheep and goats of 2.19 +/- 0.28 and 2.43 +/- 0.13 L/kg, and a similar body clearance of 0.79 +/- 0.15 and 0.98 +/- 0.13 L/kg.h, respectively. Following s.c. administration, danofloxacin achieved a similar maximum concentration in sheep and goats of 1.48 +/- 1.54 and 1.05 +/- 0.09 mg/L, respectively at 1.6 h and had a mean residence time of 4.93 +/- 0.79 and 4.51 +/- 0.44 h, respectively. Danofloxacin had an absolute bioavailability of 93.6 +/- 13.7% in sheep and 97.0 +/- 15.7% in goats and a mean absorption time of 2.07 +/- 0.75 and 2.01 +/- 0.53 h, respectively. Mean danofloxacin concentrations in milk after s.c. administration to sheep were approximately 10 times higher than plasma at 12 h postdose and remained eight times higher at 24 h postdose. In goats, mean concentration of danofloxacin in milk were approximately 13 times higher than plasma at 12 h postdose and remained four times higher at 24 h postdose. Thus, danofloxacin 18% administered s.c. to lactating ewes and goats at a dose rate of 6 mg/kg was characterized by extensive absorption, high systemic availability and high distribution into the udder resulting in higher drug concentrations being achieved in milk than in plasma.  相似文献

The purpose of this study was to establish the pharmacokinetics of enrofloxacin and its metabolite ciprofloxacin in the plasma and interstitial fluid (ISF) following subcutaneous (s.c.) administration of enrofloxacin. Ultrafiltration probes were placed in the s.c. tissue, gluteal musculature, and pleural space of five calves. Each calf received 12.5 mg/kg of enrofloxacin. Plasma and ISF samples were collected for 48 h after drug administration and analyzed by high pressure liquid chromatography. Plasma protein binding of enrofloxacin and ciprofloxacin was measured using a microcentrifugation system. Tissue probes were well tolerated and reliably produced fluid from each site. The mean +/- SD plasma half-life was 6.8 +/- 1.2 and 7.3 +/- 1 h for enrofloxacin and ciprofloxacin, respectively. The combined (ciprofloxacin + enrofloxacin) peak plasma concentration (Cmax) was 1.52 microg/mL, and the combined area under the curve (AUC) was 25.33 microg/mL. The plasma free drug concentrations were 54% and 81% for enrofloxacin and ciprofloxacin, respectively, and free drug concentration in the tissue fluid was higher than in plasma. We concluded that Cmax/MIC and AUC/MIC ratios for free drug concentrations in plasma and ISF would meet suggested ratios for a targeted MIC of 0.06 microg/mL.  相似文献

Lidocaine is administered as an intravenous infusion to horses for a variety of reasons, but no study has assessed plasma lidocaine concentrations during a 12-h infusion to horses. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the plasma concentrations and pharmacokinetics of lidocaine during a 12-h infusion to postoperative horses. A second purpose of the study was to evaluate the in vitro plasma protein binding of lidocaine in equine plasma. Lidocaine hydrochloride was administered as a loading dose, 1.3 mg/kg over 15 min, then by a constant rate IV infusion, 50 microg/kg/min to six postoperative horses. Lidocaine plasma concentrations were measured by a validated high-pressure liquid chromatography method. One horse experienced tremors and collapsed 5.5 h into the study. The range of plasma concentrations during the infusion was 1.21-3.13 microg/mL. Lidocaine plasma concentrations were significantly increased at 0.5, 4, 6, 8, 10 and 12 h compared with 1, 2 and 3 h. The in vitro protein binding of lidocaine in equine plasma at 2 microg/mL was 53.06+/-10.28% and decreased to 27.33+/-9.72% and 29.52+/-6.44% when in combination with ceftiofur or the combination of ceftiofur and flunixin, respectively. In conclusion, a lower lidocaine infusion rate may need to be administered to horses on long-term lidocaine infusions. The in vitro protein binding of lidocaine is moderate in equine plasma, but highly protein bound drugs may displace lidocaine increasing unbound concentrations and the risk of lidocaine toxicity.  相似文献

The present study was planned to investigate the plasma disposition kinetics and the pattern of moxifloxacin elimination in the milk of lactating ewes (n=6) following a single intravenous (IV) bolus or intramuscular (IM) injections at a dosage of 5 mg/kg in all animals. A crossover study was carried out in two phases separated by 21 days. Plasma and milk samples were collected serially for 72 h and moxifloxacin concentrations were assayed using high performance liquid chromatography with fluorescence detection. A two-compartment open model best described the decrease of moxifloxacin concentration in the plasma after IV injection. The disposition after IM administration moxifloxacin was best described by a one-compartment model. Following IV administration, the distribution half-life (t(1/2alpha)) was 0.22+/-0.02 h. The elimination half-life was 1.77+/-0.23 h. The volume of distribution at steady state (V(dss)) was 0.84+/-0.12L/kg, the total body clearance (Cl(tot)) was 0.34+/-0.04 L/h/kg and the area under the curve (AUC) was 14.74+/-2.16 microg h/mL. Following IM administration, the mean T(max), C(max), t(1/2el) and AUC values for plasma data were 1.45+/-0.02 h, 2.21+/-0.27 microg/mL, 2.68+/-0.19 h and 14.21+/-2.35 microg h/mL. The IM bioavailability was 96.35+/-17.23% and the in vitro protein binding of moxifloxacin ranged from 32-37%. Penetration of moxifloxacin from the blood into milk was rapid and extensive, and the moxifloxacin concentrations in milk exceeded those in plasma from 1h after administration. The kinetic values AUC(milk)/AUC(plasma) and C(maxmilk)/C(maxplasma) ratios indicated a wide penetration of moxifloxacin from the bloodstream to the mammary gland. The in vitro minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of moxifloxacin for Mannheimia haemolytica was found to be 0.035 microg/mL.  相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To estimate pharmacokinetic variables and measure tissue fluid concentrations of meropenem after IV and SC administration in dogs. ANIMALS: 6 healthy adult dogs. PROCEDURE: Dogs were administered a single dose of meropenem (20 mg/kg) IV and SC in a crossover design. To characterize the distribution of meropenem in dogs and to evaluate a unique tissue fluid collection method, an in vivo ultrafiltration device was used to collect interstitial fluid. Plasma, tissue fluid, and urine samples were analyzed by use of high-performance liquid chromatography. Protein binding was determined by use of an ultrafiltration device. RESULTS: Plasma data were analyzed by compartmental and noncompartmental pharmacokinetic methods. Mean +/- SD values for half-life, volume of distribution, and clearance after IV administration for plasma samples were 0.67 +/- 0.07 hours, 0.372 +/- 0.053 L/kg, and 6.53 +/- 1.51 mL/min/kg, respectively, and half-life for tissue fluid samples was 1.15 +/- 0.57 hours. Half-life after SC administration was 0.98 +/- 0.21 and 1.31 +/- 0.54 hours for plasma and tissue fluid, respectively. Protein binding was 11.87%, and bioavailability after SC administration was 84%. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Analysis of our data revealed that tissue fluid and plasma (unbound fraction) concentrations were similar. Because of the kinetic similarity of meropenem in the extravascular and vascular spaces, tissue fluid concentrations can be predicted from plasma concentrations. We concluded that a dosage of 8 mg/kg, SC, every 12 hours would achieve adequate tissue fluid and urine concentrations for susceptible bacteria with a minimum inhibitory concentration of 0.12 microg/mL.  相似文献

The pharmacokinetics and bioavailability of trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (TMP-SMX) were studied in six healthy male-castrate alpacas (Lama pacos) after intravenous (i.v.) or oral (p.o.) drug administration of 15 mg/kg TMP-SMX using a crossover design with a 2-week washout period. After 90 days one group (n = 3) was given a p.o. dose of 30 mg/kg TMP-SMX and the other group (n = 3) was given a p.o. dose of 60 mg/kg TMP-SMX. After i.v. administration of 15 mg/kg of TMP-SMX the mean initial plasma concentration (C0) was 10.75 +/- 2.12 microg/mL for trimethoprim (TMP) and 158.3 +/- 189.3 microg/mL for sulfamethoxazole (SMX). Elimination half-lives were 0.74 +/- 0.1 h for TMP and 2.2 +/- 0.6 h for SMX. The mean residence times were 1.45 +/- 0.72 h for TMP and 2.8 +/- 0.6 h for SMX. The areas under the respective concentration vs. time curves (AUC) were 2.49 +/- 1.62 microg h/mL for TMP and 124 +/- 60 microg h/mL for SMX. Total clearance (Clt) for TMP was 21.63 +/- 9.85 and 1.90 +/- 0.77 mL/min kg for SMX. The volume of distribution at steady state was 2.32 +/- 1.15 L/kg for TMP and 0.35 +/- 0.09 L/kg for SMX. After intragastric administration of 15, 30 and 60 mg/kg the peak concentration (Cmax) of SMX were 1.9 +/- 0.8, 2.6 +/- 0.4 and 2.8 +/- 0.7 microg/mL, respectively. The AUC was 9.1 +/- 5, 25.9 +/- 3.3 and 39.1 +/- 4.1 microg h/mL, respectively. Based upon these AUC values and correcting for dose, the respective bioavailabilities were 7.7, 10.5 and 7.94%. Trimethoprim was not detected in plasma after intragastric administration. These data demonstrate that therapeutic concentrations of TMP-SMX are not achieved after p.o. administration to alpacas.  相似文献

The pharmacokinetic properties and in vitro potency of nimesulide, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) were investigated in 8 or 10 dogs after intravenous (i.v.), intramuscular (i.m.) and oral (single and multiple dose) administrations at the nominal dose of 5 mg/kg. After i.v. administration, the plasma clearance was 15.3 +/- 4.2 mL/kg/h, the steady-state volume of distribution was low (0.18 +/- 0.011 L/kg) and the elimination half-life was 8.5 +/- 2.1 h. After i.m. administration, the terminal half-life was 14.0 +/- 5.3 h indicating a slow process of absorption with a maximum plasma concentration (6.1 +/- 1.5 microg/mL) at 10.9 +/- 2.1 h postadministration and the systemic bioavailability was 69 +/- 22%. After oral administration in fasted dogs, the maximal plasma concentration (10.1 +/- 2.7 microg/mL) was observed 6.1 +/- 1.6 h after drug administration, the plasma half-life was 6.2 +/- 1.9 h and the mean bioavailability was 47 +/- 12%. After daily oral administrations for 5 days, the average plasma concentration during the fifth dosage interval was 8.1 +/- 2.9 microg/mL and the overall bioavailability was 58 +/- 16%. The mean accumulation ratio was 1.27 +/- 0.4. In vitro nimesulide inhibitory potencies for cyclooxygenase (COX)-1 and COX-2 isoenzymes were determined using a whole blood assay. Canine clotting blood was used to test for inhibition of COX-1 activity and whole blood stimulated by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) was used to test for inhibition of COX-2 activity. The inhibitory concentration (IC50) for inhibition of COX-2 and COX-1 were 1.6 +/- 0.4 microM (0.49 +/- 0.12 microg/mL) and 20.3 +/- 2.8 microM (6.3 +/- 0.86 microg/mL) giving a nimesulide COX-1/COX-2 ratio of 12.99 +/- 3.41. It was concluded that at the currently recommended dosage regimen (5 mg/kg), the plasma concentration totally inhibits COX-2 and partly inhibits COX-1 isoenzyme.  相似文献

The pharmacokinetics of selamectin were evaluated in cats and dogs, following intravenous (0.05, 0.1 and 0.2 mg/kg), topical (24 mg/kg) and oral (24 mg/kg) administration. Following selamectin administration, serial blood samples were collected and plasma concentrations were determined by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). After intravenous administration of selamectin to cats and dogs, the mean maximum plasma concentrations and area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) were linearly related to the dose, and mean systemic clearance (Clb) and steady-state volume of distribution (Vd(ss)) were independent of dose. Plasma concentrations after intravenous administration declined polyexponentially in cats and biphasically in dogs, with mean terminal phase half-lives (t(1/2)) of approximately 69 h in cats and 14 h in dogs. In cats, overall Clb was 0.470 +/- 0.039 mL/min/kg (+/-SD) and overall Vd(ss) was 2.19 +/- 0.05 L/kg, compared with values of 1.18 +/- 0.31 mL/min/kg and 1.24 +/- 0.26 L/kg, respectively, in dogs. After topical administration, the mean C(max) in cats was 5513 +/- 2173 ng/mL reached at a time (T(max)) of 15 +/- 12 h postadministration; in dogs, C(max) was 86.5 +/- 34.0 ng/mL at T(max) of 72 +/- 48 h. Bioavailability was 74% in cats and 4.4% in dogs. Following oral administration to cats, mean C(max) was 11,929 +/- 5922 ng/mL at T(max) of 7 +/- 6 h and bioavailability was 109%. In dogs, mean C(max) was 7630 +/- 3140 ng/mL at T(max) of 8 +/- 5 h and bioavailability was 62%. There were no selamectin-related adverse effects and no sex differences in pharmacokinetic parameters. Linearity was established in cats and dogs for plasma concentrations up to 874 and 636 ng/mL, respectively. Pharmacokinetic evaluations for selamectin following intravenous administration indicated a slower elimination from the central compartment in cats than in dogs. This was reflected in slower clearance and longer t(1/2) in cats, probably as a result of species-related differences in metabolism and excretion. Inter-species differences in pharmacokinetic profiles were also observed following topical administration where differences in transdermal flux rates may have contributed to the overall differences in systemic bioavailability.  相似文献

This study was undertaken to characterize the population pharmacokinetics (PK), therapeutic dose, and preferred route of administration for pyrazinamide (PZA) in elephants. Twenty-three African (Loxodonta africana) and Asian (Elephas maximus) elephants infected with or in contact with others culture positive for Mycobacterium tuberculosis were dosed under treatment conditions. PZA was dosed daily at 20-30 mg/kg via oral (fasting or nonfasting state) or rectal (enema or suppository) administration. Blood samples were collected 0-24 h postdose. Population PK was estimated using nonlinear mixed effect modeling. Drug absorption was rapid with T(max) at or before 2 h regardless of the method of drug administration. C(max) at a mean dose of 25.6 (+/-4.6) mg/kg was 19.6 (+/-9.5 microg/mL) for PZA given orally under fasting conditions. Under nonfasting conditions at a mean dose of 26.1 +/- 4.2 mg/kg, C(max) was 25% (4.87 +/- 4.89 microg/mL) and area under concentration curve (AUC) was 30% of the values observed under fasting conditions. Mean rectal dose of 32.6 +/- 15.2 mg/kg yielded C(max) of 12.3 +/- 6.3 microg/mL, but comparable AUC to PZA administered orally while fasting. Both oral and rectal administration of PZA appeared to be acceptable and oral dosing is preferred because of the higher C(max) and lower inter-subject variability. A starting dose of 30 mg/kg is recommended with drug monitoring between 1 and 2 h postdose. Higher doses may be required if the achieved C(max) values are below the recommended 20-50 microg/mL range.  相似文献

Phenylbutazone (PBZ) was administered to six calves intravenously (i.v.) and orally at a dose rate of 4.4 mg/kg in a three-period cross-over study incorporating a placebo treatment to establish its pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties. Extravascular distribution was determined by measuring penetration into tissue chamber fluid in the absence of stimulation (transudate) and after stimulation of chamber tissue with the mild irritant carrageenan (exudate). PBZ pharmacokinetics after i.v. dosage was characterized by slow clearance (1.29 mL/kg/h), long-terminal half-life (53.4 h), low distribution volume (0.09 L/kg) and low concentrations in plasma of the metabolite oxyphenbutazone (OPBZ), confirming previously published data for adult cattle. After oral dosage bioavailability (F) was 66%. Passage into exudate was slow and limited, and penetration into transudate was even slower and more limited; area under curve values for plasma, exudate and transudate after i.v. dosage were 3604, 1117 and 766 microg h/mL and corresponding values after oral dosage were 2435, 647 and 486 microg h/mL. These concentrations were approximately 15-20 (plasma) and nine (exudate) times greater than those previously reported in horses (receiving the same dose rate of PBZ). In the horse, the lower concentrations had produced marked inhibition of eicosanoid synthesis and suppressed the inflammatory response. The higher concentrations in calves were insufficient to inhibit significantly exudate prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), leukotriene B4 (LTB4) and beta-glucuronidase concentrations and exudate leucocyte numbers, serum thromboxane B2 (TxB2), and bradykinin-induced skin swelling. These differences from the horse might be the result of: (a) the presence in equine biological fluids of higher concentrations than in calves of the active PBZ metabolite, OPBZ; (b) a greater degree of binding of PBZ to plasma protein in calves; (c) species differences in the sensitivity to PBZ of the cyclo-oxygenase (COX) isoenzymes, COX-1 and COX-2 or; (d) a combination of these factors. To achieve clinical efficacy with single doses of PBZ in calves, higher dosages than 4.4 mg/kg will be probably required.  相似文献

The distribution of trimethoprim (TMP) and sulfadiazine (SDZ) into subcutaneously implanted noninfected tissue chambers was studied in healthy adult ponies. Six ponies were given an oral TMP/SDZ paste formulation at a dose of 5 mg/kg TMP and 25 mg/kg SDZ at 12 h intervals for 2 days in order to reach steady-state concentrations. Plasma concentrations and tissue chamber fluid (TCF) concentrations of both drugs were measured at regular intervals during a period commencing 24 h after the last oral administration. The peak concentration of TMP (mean +/- SD) was 2.92 +/- 0.86 microg/mL for plasma and 1.09 +/- 0.25 microg/mL for TCF. For SDZ, the mean peak concentration was 40.20 +/- 14.74 microg/mL for plasma and 23.48 +/- 5.84 microg/mL for TCF. TMP peak concentrations in plasma were reached at 3.17 +/- 03.48 h and those in TCF at 7.33 +/- 03.72 h. SDZ peak concentrations in plasma were reached at 1.83 +/- 02.04 h and those in TCF at 8.00 +/- 03.10 h. Concentrations of TMP and SDZ in TCF remained above the generally accepted breakpoint for susceptibility (0.5/9.5 for the TMP/SDZ combination) for 12 h. Therefore, in ponies oral administration of TMP/SDZ at a dose rate of 30 mg/kg given twice daily in the form of a paste should be appropriate for effective treatment of infections caused by susceptible bacteria.  相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To determine the pharmacokinetics of voriconazole following IV and PO administration and assess the distribution of voriconazole into body fluids following repeated PO administration in horses. ANIMALS: 6 clinically normal adult horses. PROCEDURES: All horses received voriconazole (10 mg/kg) IV and PO (2-week interval between treatments). Plasma voriconazole concentrations were determined prior to and at intervals following administration. Subsequently, voriconazole was administered PO (3 mg/kg) twice daily for 10 days to all horses; plasma, synovial fluid, CSF, urine, and preocular tear film concentrations of voriconazole were then assessed. RESULTS: Mean +/- SD volume of distribution at steady state was 1,604.9 +/- 406.4 mL/kg. Systemic bioavailability of voriconazole following PO administration was 95 +/- 19%; the highest plasma concentration of 6.1 +/- 1.4 microg/mL was attained at 0.6 to 2.3 hours. Mean peak plasma concentration was 2.57 microg/mL, and mean trough plasma concentration was 1.32 microg/mL. Mean plasma, CSF, synovial fluid, urine, and preocular tear film concentrations of voriconazole after long-term PO administration were 5.163 +/- 1.594 microg/mL, 2.508 +/- 1.616 microg/mL, 3.073 +/- 2.093 microg/mL, 4.422 +/- 0.8095 microg/mL, and 3.376 +/- 1.297 microg/mL, respectively. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Results indicated that voriconazole distributed quickly and widely in the body; following a single IV dose, initial plasma concentrations were high with a steady and early decrease in plasma concentration. Absorption of voriconazole after PO administration was excellent, compared with absorption after IV administration. Voriconazole appears to be another option for the treatment of fungal infections in horses.  相似文献

Single-dose disposition kinetics of difloxacin (5mg/kg bodyweight) were determined in clinically normal male dromedary camels (n=6) following intravenous (IV) and intramuscular (IM) administration. Difloxacin concentrations were determined by high performance liquid chromatography with fluorescence detection. The concentration-time data were analysed by compartmental and non-compartmental kinetic methods. Following a single IV injection, the plasma difloxacin concentration-time curve was best described by a two-compartment open model, with a distribution half-life (t(1/2alpha)) of 0.22+/-0.02h and an elimination half-life (t(1/2beta)) of 2.97+/-0.31h. Steady-state volume of distribution (V(dss)) and total body clearance (Cl(tot)) were 1.02+/-0.21L/kg and 0.24+/-0.07L/kg/h, respectively. Following IM administration, the absorption half-life (t(1)(/)(2ab)) and the mean absorption time (MAT) were 0.44+/-0.03h and 1.53+/-0.22h, respectively. The peak plasma concentration (C(max)) of 2.84+/-0.34microg/mL was achieved at 1.42+/-0.21h. The elimination half-life (t(1/2el)) and the mean residence time (MRT) was 3.46+/-0.42h and 5.61+/-0.23h, respectively. The in vitro plasma protein binding of difloxacin ranged from 28-43% and the absolute bioavailability following IM administration was 93.51+/-11.63%. Difloxacin could be useful for the treatment of bacterial infections in camels that are sensitive to this drug.  相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To develop a high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) assay for cetirizine in feline plasma and determine the pharmacokinetics of cetirizine in healthy cats after oral administration of a single dose (5 mg) of cetirizine dihydrochloride. ANIMALS: 9 healthy cats. PROCEDURES: Heparinized blood samples were collected prior to and 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 24 hours after oral administration of 5 mg of cetirizine dihydrochloride to each cat (dosage range, 0.6 to 1.4 mg/kg). Plasma was harvested and analyzed by reverse-phase HPLC. Plasma concentrations of cetirizine were analyzed with a compartmental pharmacokinetic model. Protein binding was measured by ultrafiltration with a microcentrifugation system. RESULTS: No adverse effects were detected after drug administration in the cats. Mean +/- SD terminal half-life was 10.06 +/- 4.05 hours, and mean peak plasma concentration was 3.30 +/- 1.55 microg/mL. Mean volume of distribution and clearance (per fraction absorbed) were 0.24 +/- 0.09 L/kg and 0.30 +/- 0.09 mL/kg/min, respectively. Mean plasma concentrations were approximately 2.0 microg/mL or higher for 10 hours and were maintained at > 0.72 microg/mL for 24 hours. Protein binding was approximately 88%. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: A single dose of cetirizine dihydrochloride (approx 1 mg/kg, which corresponded to approximately 0.87 mg of cetirizine base/kg) was administered orally to cats. It was tolerated well and maintained plasma concentrations higher than those considered effective in humans for 24 hours after dosing. The half-life of cetirizine in cats is compatible with once-daily dosing, and the extent of protein binding is high.  相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To determine the pharmacokinetics of itraconazole after IV or oral administration of a solution or capsules to horses and to examine disposition of itraconazole in the interstitial fluid (ISF), aqueous humor, and polymorphonuclear leukocytes after oral administration of the solution. ANIMALS: 6 healthy horses. PROCEDURE: Horses were administered itraconazole solution (5 mg/kg) by nasogastric tube, and samples of plasma, ISF, aqueous humor, and leukocytes were obtained. Horses were then administered itraconazole capsules (5 mg/kg), and plasma was obtained. Three horses were administered itraconazole (1.5 mg/kg, IV), and plasma samples were obtained. All samples were analyzed by use of high-performance liquid chromatography. Plasma protein binding was determined. Data were analyzed by compartmental and noncompartmental pharmacokinetic methods. RESULTS: Itraconazole reached higher mean +/- SD plasma concentrations after administration of the solution (0.41 +/- 0.13 microg/mL) versus the capsules (0.15 +/- 0.12 microg/mL). Bioavailability after administration of capsules relative to solution was 33.83 +/- 33.08%. Similar to other species, itraconazole has a high volume of distribution (6.3 +/- 0.94 L/kg) and a long half-life (11.3 +/- 2.84 hours). Itraconazole was not detected in the ISF, aqueous humor, or leukocytes. Plasma protein binding was 98.81 +/- 0.17%. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Itraconazole administered orally as a solution had higher, more consistent absorption than orally administered capsules and attained plasma concentrations that are inhibitory against fungi that infect horses. Administration of itraconazole solution (5 mg/kg, PO, q 24 h) is suggested for use in clinical trials to test the efficacy of itraconazole in horses.  相似文献

Pharmacokinetics (PK) of probenecid including plasma probenecid concentrations, in vitro plasma protein binding properties, and in vivo PK parameters were determined in dogs. Probenecid concentrations were best determined by HPLC, which showed good linearity and good recovery with simple plasma preparation. The quantification limit of probenecid was approximately 50 ng/ml at S/N ratio = 3, by simple procedure with HCl and methanol treatment. Probenecid showed two types of binding characteristics, i.e., high-affinity with low-capacity and low-affinity with high-capacity binding. This result indicated 80-88% of probenecid was bound to plasma protein(s) at observed concentrations (< 80 microg/ml) in vivo at an intravenous dose of 20 mg/kg. Plasma probenecid concentration-time profile following i.v. administration in dogs showed biphasic decline and well fitted a two-compartment open model. The total body clearance was 0.34 +/- 0.04 ml/min/kg, volume of distribution at steady-state was 0.46 +/- 0.07 l/kg, elimination half-life was 18 +/- 6 hr, and mean residence time (MRT) was 23 +/- 6 hr. Since probenecid has been known as a potent inhibitor of renal tubular excretion of acidic drugs and highly binds to plasma proteins, our observation in relation to plasma protein binding and PK parameters will serve as the basic information concerning drug-drug interactions in dogs and in other mammalian species.  相似文献

Pharmacokinetic variables of fosfomycin were determined after administration of buffered disodium-fosfomycin intravenously (IV), intramuscularly (IM), subcutaneously (SC) and orally (PO), in mongrel dogs, at 40 and 80 mg/kgday for three days. Renal integrity was also assessed by measuring key serum variables. Day 1, day 2 and day 3 plasma concentration vs. time profiles were undistinguishable, but there appears to be a lineal increase in serum concentrations vs. time with the dose. A non-accumulative kinetic behavior was observed after three days with both doses and most pharmacokinetic variables remain unaltered. Considering a MIC range from 1 mirog/mL to 16 microg/mL of fosfomycin in serum for sensitive bacteria, and a negligible plasma protein binding of fosfomycin (<0.5%), useful plasma concentrations can only be achieved after the SC injection of 80 mg/kg every 12h, having a C(max)=18.96+/-0.3 microg/mL; a T(1/2beta)=2.09+/-0.06 microg/mL and a bioavailability of 84-85%. No alterations were observed in serum variables of kidney-related biochemical values.  相似文献

Ceftiofur sodium, a broad-spectrum cephalosporin, is active against gram-positive and gram-negative pathogens of veterinary importance. Two studies were designed to compare the intramuscular bioavailability of the current sodium salt and the new hydrochloride salt in pigs at doses of either 3 mg or 5 mg ceftiofur equivalents (CE)/kg body weight. Twenty-six healthy young pigs were selected for these two-period, two-treatment crossover studies, 12 for the 3 mg/kg study and 14 for the 5 mg/kg study. Each animal received one intramuscular (i.m.) injection of ceftiofur sodium and one i.m. injection of ceftiofur hydrochloride with a 14-day washout period between the two treatments. Blood samples were collected serially for up to 96 h postinjection. Plasma samples were then analysed using a validated assay that measures ceftiofur and all desfuroylceftiofur-related metabolites by high-performance liquid chromatography. In the 3 mg/kg dosage study, average maximum plasma concentration (C(max)) after administration of ceftiofur sodium was 15.8+/-3.40 microg/mL at 0.4-4 h after injection. After administration of ceftiofur hydrochloride, the C(max) was 11.8+/-1.67 microg/mL at 1-4 h after injection. Concentrations of ceftiofur and metabolites 72 h after the injection were 0.392+/-0.162 microg/mL for ceftiofur hydrochloride and 0.270+/-0.118 microg/mL for ceftiofur sodium. The mean area under the curve (AUC), from time 0 to the limit of quantitation (AUC(O-LOQ)) after ceftiofur hydrochloride administration, was 216+/-28.0 microg x h/mL, compared to 169+/-45.4 microg x h/mL after ceftiofur sodium administration. The calculated time during which plasma concentrations remained above 0.02 microg/mL (t(>0.2)) was 85.3+/-10.6 h for ceftiofur sodium and 77.2+/-10.7 h for ceftiofur hydrochloride. In the 5 mg/kg dosage study, C(max) after administration of ceftiofur sodium was 28.3+/-4.45 microg/mL at 0.33-2 h after injection. After administration of ceftiofur hydrochloride, the C(max) was 29.7+/-6.72 microg/mL at 0.66-2 h after injection. Concentrations of ceftiofur and metabolites 96 h after the injection were 0.274+/-0.0550 microg/mL for ceftiofur hydrochloride and 0.224+/-0.0350 microg/mL for ceftiofur sodium. The mean AUC(O-LOQ) after ceftiofur hydrochloride administration was 382+/-89.8 microg x h/mL compared to 302+/-54.4 microg x h/mL after ceftiofur sodium administration. The t(>0.2) was 78.9+/-9.65 h for ceftiofur sodium and 94.2+/-8.64 h for ceftiofur hydrochloride. Based on the similarity of the pharmacokinetic parameters of the sodium and hydrochloride formulations of ceftiofur, similar therapeutic efficacy can be inferred for the two products.  相似文献

The pharmacokinetic properties of ceftazidime, a third generation cephalosporin, were investigated in five cats after single intravenous (IV) and intramuscular (IM) administration at a dose rate of 30 mg/kg. Minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of ceftazidime for some Gram-negative (Escherichia coli, n=11) and Gram-positive (Staphylococcus spp., n=10) strains isolated from clinical cases were determined. An efficacy predictor, measured as the time over which the active drug exceeds the bacteria minimum inhibitory concentration (T>MIC), was calculated. Serum ceftazidime disposition was best fitted by a bi-compartmental and a mono-compartmental open model with first-order elimination after IV and IM dosing, respectively. After IV administration, distribution was rapid (t(1/2(d)) 0.04+/-0.03 h), with an area under the ceftazidime serum concentration:time curve (AUC((0-infinity))) of 173.14+/-48.69 microg h/mL and a volume of distribution (V((d(ss)))) of 0.18+/-0.04 L/kg. Furthermore, elimination was rapid with a plasma clearance of 0.19+/-0.08 L/hkg and a t(1/2) of 0.77+/-0.06 h. Peak serum concentration (C(max)), T(max), AUC((0-infinity)) and bioavailability for the IM administration were 89.42+/-12.15 microg/mL, 0.48+/-0.49 h, 192.68+/-65.28 microg h/mL and 82.47+/-14.37%, respectively. Ceftazidime MIC for E. coli ranged from 0.0625 to 32 microg/mL and for Staphylococcus spp. from 1 to 64 microg/mL. T>MIC was in the range 35-52% (IV) and 48-72% (IM) of the recommended dosing interval (8-12h) for bacteria with a MIC(90)4 microg/mL.  相似文献
