Pharmacokinetics and bioavailability of cefazolin in horses   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
The pharmacokinetics and bioavailability of cefazolin given (IV, IM) to horses at the dosage of 11 mg/kg were investigated. The disposition of cefazolin given by IV route was characterized by a rapid disposition phase with a half-life of 5 to 10 minutes and a subsequent slower elimination phase with a half-life of 35 to 46 minutes. The total plasma clearance of cefazolin averaged 5.51 ml/min/kg and was due mainly to renal clearance (5.39 ml/min/kg) of unchanged drug. The volume of distribution at steady-state averaged 188 ml/kg. Plasma protein binding of cefazolin at a concentration of 10 micrograms/ml averaged 8.1 +/- 1.9%. Given by the IM route, cefazolin was rapidly absorbed; the extent of bioavailability was 78.4 +/- 18.8%, and the terminal half-life ranged from 49 to 99 minutes. Thus, cefazolin was extensively absorbed, but was eliminated more slowly than after IV administration.  相似文献

Pharmacokinetics and bioavailability of cephalothin in horse mares   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
The pharmacokinetics and bioavailability of cephalothin given to 6 horse mares at a dosage level of 11 mg/kg of body weight IV or IM were investigated. The disposition of cephalothin given IV was characterized by a rapid disposition phase with a mean half-life of 2.89 minutes and a subsequent slower elimination phase with a mean half-life of only 14.7 minutes. The mean residence time of cephalothin was 10.6 +/- 2.11 minutes. The total plasma clearance of cephalothin averaged 13.6 ml/min/kg and was caused by metabolism and renal elimination. Renal clearance of cephalothin averaged 1.32 ml/min/kg and accounted for elimination of about 10.1% of the administered dose. The volume of distribution at steady state averaged 151 mg/kg. Plasma protein binding of cephalothin at a concentration of 10 micrograms/ml averaged 17.9 +/- 2.5%. Cephalothin was rapidly metabolized to desacetylcephalothin. Maximum plasma desacetylcephalothin concentrations were observed in the blood samples collected 5 minutes after IV doses and averaged 22.9 micrograms/ml. The apparent half-life of desacetylcephalothin in plasma was 41.6 minutes and its renal clearance averaged 4.49 +/- 2.43 ml/min/kg. An average of 33.9% of the dose was recovered in the urine as desacetylcephalothin. The maximum plasma cephalothin concentration after IM administration was 11.3 +/- 3.71 micrograms/ml. The terminal half-life was 47.0 minutes and was longer than the half-life after IV administration. The bioavailability of cephalothin given IM ranged from 38.3% to 93.1% and averaged 65.0 +/- 20.5%.  相似文献

Ceftazidime pharmacokinetic values were studied in unweaned calves given the antibiotic alone or in combination with probenecid. Ceftazidime was administered IV to 9 calves at a dosage of 10 mg/kg of body weight and IM (10 mg/kg) to 8 calves, to 7 calves (10 mg/kg plus probenecid [40 mg/kg]), and to 9 calves (10 mg/kg plus probenecid [80 mg/kg]). Serum concentration-vs-time data were analyzed, using noncompartmental methods based on statistical moment theory. The data for IV ceftazidime administration also were fitted by use of a linear, open 2-compartment model. The mean (+/- SD) terminal half-life was 138.7 +/- 23.6 minutes and 126.3 +/- 10.5 minutes after IV and IM administrations, respectively. The mean residence time was 167.3 +/- 21.1 minutes and 201.4 +/- 16.8 minutes after IV and IM administrations, respectively. Coadministeration of probenecid did not affect the terminal half-life or mean residence time values. The total body clearance was 1.75 +/- 0.26 ml/min/kg, and the volume of distribution at steady state was 0.294 +/- 0.064 L/kg. The estimated mean absorption time was 34.1 minutes. There were no significant differences between the mean residence time calculated by statistical moment theory or by compartmental analysis, indicating central compartment output of ceftazidime. The 90% minimal inhibitory concentration values of ceftazidime determined for Escherichia coli, Salmonella spp, Pasteurella multocida, and P haemolytica isolates ranged from less than 0.01 to 0.1 micrograms/ml.  相似文献

The effect of an oral dose of probenecid on the disposition kinetics of ampicillin was determined in four horses. An intravenous bolus dose (10 mg/kg) of ampicillin sodium was administered to the horses on two occasions. On the first occasion the antibiotic was administered on its own, and on the second occasion it was administered one hour after an oral dose of 75 mg/kg probenecid. The plasma concentration of probenecid reached a mean (+/- se) maximum concentration (Cmax) of 188-6 +/- 19.3 micrograms/ml after 120.0 +/- 21.2 minutes and concentrations greater than 15 micrograms/ml were present 25 hours after it was administered. The disposition kinetics of ampicillin were altered by the presence of probenecid and as a result the antibiotic had a slower body clearance (ClB; 109.4 +/- 6.71 ml/kg hours compared with 208.9 +/- 26.2 ml/kg hours) a longer elimination half-life (t1/2 beta 1.198 hours compared with 0.701 hours) and consequently a larger area under the plasma concentration versus time curve (AUC 92.3 +/- 5.09 mg/ml hours compared with 35.95 +/- 3.45 mg/ml hours) when compared with animals to which ampicillin was administered alone. The ampicillin concentrations observed suggest that the dosing interval for horses may be increased from between six and eight hours to 12 hours when probenecid is administered in conjunction with the ampicillin.  相似文献

The pharmacokinetics and estimated bioavailability of amoxicillin were determined after IV, intragastric, and IM administration to healthy mares. After IV administration of sodium amoxicillin (10 mg/kg of body weight), the disposition of the drug was best described by a 2-compartment open model. A rapid distribution phase was followed by a rapid elimination phase, with a mean +/- SD half-life of 39.4 +/- 3.57 minutes. The mean volume of distribution was 325 +/- 68.2 ml/kg, and the mean body clearance was 5.68 +/- 0.80 ml/min.kg. It was concluded that frequent IV administration of sodium amoxicillin would be required to maintain therapeutic plasma concentrations of amoxicillin, and thus, the use of this dosage form should be limited to the initiation of treatment or to intensive care situations. After intragastric administration of amoxicillin trihydrate (20 mg/kg), 5% cherry-flavored suspension, the drug was rapidly, but incompletely, absorbed and rapidly eliminated (mean half-life of the decline phase of the plasma amoxicillin concentration-time curve, 51 minutes). The mean estimated bioavailability (fractional absorption) of the administered dose was 10.4%, and the mean peak plasma amoxicillin concentration was 2.73 micrograms/ml at 1.5 hours after dosing. In one horse with clinical signs of abdominal discomfort and diarrhea, the absorption of amoxicillin from the gastrointestinal tract was delayed and the fraction absorbed was increased. It was concluded that this oral dosage form could be recommended only for the treatment of infections caused by bacteria that are highly susceptible to amoxicillin, that frequent dosing would be necessary, and that absorption may be inconsistent in horses with gastrointestinal disease.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

Cephapirin (20 mg/kg of body weight, IV) was administered before and after 3 doses of probenecid (25, 50, or 75 mg/kg, intragastrically, at 12-hour intervals) to 2 mares. Clearance and apparent volume of distribution, based on area under the curve, were negatively correlated with probenecid dose. Clearance of cephapirin was decreased by approximately 50% by administration of 50 mg of probenecid/kg. Serum, synovial fluid, peritoneal fluid, CSF, urinary, and endometrial concentrations of cephapirin were determined after 5 doses of cephapirin (20 mg/kg, IM, at 12-hour intervals) without and with concurrently administered probenecid (50 mg/kg, intragastrically) to 6 mares, including the 2 mares given cephapirin, IV. Highest mean serum cephapirin concentrations were 16.1 +/- 2.16 micrograms/ml at 0.5 hour after the 5th cephapirin dose [postinjection (initial) hour (PIH) 48.5] in mares not given probenecid and 23.7 +/- 1.30 micrograms/ml at 1.5 hours after the 5th cephapirin dose (PIH 49.5) in mares given probenecid. Mean peak peritoneal fluid and synovial fluid cephapirin concentrations were 6.2 +/- 0.57 micrograms/ml and 6.6 +/- 0.58 micrograms/ml, respectively, without probenecid administration and 12.3 +/- 0.46 micrograms/ml and 10 +/- 0.78 micrograms/ml, respectively, with concurrent probenecid administration. Mean trough cephapirin concentrations for peritoneal and synovial fluids in mares given probenecid were 2 to 3 times higher than trough concentrations in mares not given probenecid. Overall mean cephapirin concentrations were significantly higher for serum, peritoneal fluid, synovial fluid, and endometrium when probenecid was administered concurrently with cephapirin (P less than 0.01).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

The pharmacokinetics and bioavailability of rifampin were determined after IV (10 mg/kg of body weight) and intragastric (20 mg/kg of body weight) administration to 6 healthy, adult horses. After IV administration, the disposition kinetics of rifampin were best described by a 2-compartment open model. A rapid distribution phase was followed by a slower elimination phase, with a half-life (t1/2[beta]) of 7.27 +/- 1.11 hours. The mean body clearance was 1.49 +/- 0.41 ml/min.kg, and the mean volume of distribution was 932 +/- 292 ml/kg, indicating that rifampin was widely distributed in the body. After intragastric administration of rifampin in aqueous suspension, a brief lag period (0.31 +/- 0.09 hour) was followed by rapid, but incomplete, absorption (t1/2[a] = 0.51 +/- 0.32 hour) and slow elimination (t1/2[d] = 11.50 +/- 1.55 hours). The mean bioavailability (fractional absorption) of the administered dose during the first 24 hours was 53.94 +/- 18.90%, and we estimated that 70.0 +/- 23.6% of the drug would eventually be absorbed. The mean peak plasma rifampin concentration was 13.25 +/- 2.70 micrograms/ml at 2.5 +/- 1.6 hours after dosing. All 6 horses had plasma rifampin concentrations greater than 2 micrograms/ml by 45 minutes after dosing; concentrations greater than 3 micrograms/ml persisted for at least 24 hours. Mean plasma rifampin concentrations at 12 and 24 hours after dosing were 6.86 +/- 1.69 micrograms/ml and 3.83 +/- 0.87 micrograms/ml, respectively. We tested 162 isolates of 16 bacterial species cultured from clinically ill horses for susceptibility to rifampin.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

Ceftriaxone was administered to Israeli-Friesian male calves by IV and IM routes. The antibiotic was administered IV (10 mg/kg) to 10 calves and IM to 23 calves; 8 were given the antibiotic at the rate of 10 mg/kg of body weight, 5 were given 20 mg/kg, and 10 were given 10 mg/kg, together with probenecid at 40 mg/kg. Serum concentration vs time profiles measured after IV and IM administration were analyzed by use of statistical moment theory. The following mean values +/- SD were found: elimination half-life (t1/2) was 83.8 +/- 8.6 minutes after IV administration and significantly longer 116.8 +/- 20.5 minutes (P less than 0.001) after IM administration at 10 mg/kg. The t1/2 was increased to 141.3 +/- 24.4 minutes by the coadministration of probenecid and to 145.0 +/- 48.2 minutes by doubling the IM dosage to 20 mg/kg. The total body clearance was 3.39 +/- 0.42 ml/min/kg and the renal clearance 2.37 +/- 0.74 ml/min/kg. The specific volume of distribution was 0.2990 +/- 0.0510 L/kg. The average mean residence time (MRT) was 94.0 +/- 12.3 minutes after IV administration and 137.6 +/- 19.9 minutes after IM administration of ceftriaxone at 10 mg/kg. The MRT was increased to 198 +/- 48.8 minutes by the coadministration of probenecid and to 191.0 +/- 59.4 minutes by doubling the IM dose. The former value was significantly different from the MRT after IM administration of the antibiotic at 10 mg/kg. Bioavailability of ceftriaxone after IM administration at 10 mg/kg and at 20 mg/kg was 78% and 83%, respectively.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

The pharmacokinetics and bioavailability of enrofloxacin were determined after IV and IM administration of 5 mg/kg of body weight to 6 healthy adult rabbits. Using nonlinear least-squares regression methods, data obtained were best described by a 2-compartment open model. After IV administration, a rapid distribution phase was followed by a slower elimination phase, with a half-life of 131.5 +/- 17.6 minutes. The mean body clearance rate was 22.8 +/- 6.8 ml/min/kg, and the mean volume of distribution was 3.4 +/- 0.9 L/kg. This large volume of distribution and the K12/K21 ratio close to 1, indicated that enrofloxacin was widely distributed in the body, but not retained in tissues. After a brief lag period (6.2 +/- 2.86 min), IM absorption was rapid (4.1 +/- 1.3 min) and almost complete. The mean extent of IM absorption was 92 +/- 11%, and maximal plasma concentration of 3.04 +/- 0.34 micrograms/ml was detected approximately 10 minutes after administration.  相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To determine the pharmacokinetics of metformin in healthy cats after single-dose IV and oral administration of the drug. ANIMALS: 6 healthy adult ovariohysterectomized cats. PROCEDURE: In a randomized cross-over design study, each cat was given 25 mg of metformin/kg of body weight, IV and orally. Blood and urine samples were collected after drug administration, and concentrations of metformin in plasma and urine were determined by use of high-performance liquid chromatography. RESULTS: Disposition of the drug was characterized by a three-compartment model with a terminal phase half-life of (mean +/- SD) 11.5+/-4.2 hours. Metformin was distributed to a small central compartment of 0.057+/-0.017 L/kg and to 2 peripheral compartments with volumes of distribution of 0.12+/-0.02 and 0.37+/-0.38 L/kg. Steady-state volume of distribution was 0.55+/-0.38 L/kg. After IV administration, 84+/-14% of the dose was excreted unchanged in urine, with renal clearance of 0.13+/-0.03 L/h/kg; nonrenal clearance was negligible (0.02+/-0.02 L/kg). Mean bioavailability of orally administered metformin was 48%. CONCLUSIONS: The general disposition pattern of metformin in cats is similar to that reported for humans. Metformin was eliminated principally by renal clearance; therefore, this drug should not be used in cats with substantial renal dysfunction. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: On the basis of our results, computer simulations indicate that 2 mg of metformin/kg administered orally every 12 hours to cats will yield plasma concentrations documented to be effective in humans.  相似文献

Pharmacokinetics of cefotaxime in the domestic cat   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
Cefotaxime was administered as single IV or IM dose for the purpose of examining its pharmacokinetics in healthy cats. The mean predicted plasma concentration of cefotaxime in 6 cats at 0 time after a single IV dosage of 10 mg/kg of body weight was 88.9 micrograms/ml. The mean plasma concentrations decreased to 10.8 micrograms/ml at 2 hours, 3.7 micrograms/ml at 3 hours, and 0.5 microgram/ml at 6 hours. The half-life was 0.98 +/- 0.25 hour (mean +/- SD), and the total body clearance was determined to be 2.76 +/- 1.25 ml/min/kg. After a single IM injection of 10 mg/kg of body weight, the mean maximum observed plasma concentration was 36.2 micrograms/ml at 0.75 hour. The mean absorption half-life was 0.24 hour. In 2 animals, the bioavailability of an IM injection was 98.2% and 93.0%.  相似文献

The plasma concentrations and pharmacokinetics of rifampin disposition were determined after a single IV, IM, or oral dose of 10 mg/kg of body weight and an oral dose of 25 mg/kg. The overall elimination rate constants per minute were similar for the 10 mg/kg dose (0.0021 +/- 0.0004, IV; 0.0017 +/- 0.0002, IM; and 0.0023 +/- 0.0006, orally). The apparent bioavailability was moderate to low for IM and oral administrations (59.8% +/- 3.2% and 39.5% +/- 5.0%, respectively). The rate of absorption was most rapid for oral administration with an absorption half-life of 249.7 +/- 71.6 minutes as compared with 403.5 +/- 89.7 minutes for IM administration. However, the IM route produced longer detectable plasma concentrations (50 hours in 2 of the 4 horses). Based on bacterial sensitivity information derived for human and canine isolates, the daily oral administration of 10 mg of rifampin/kg administered in the feed represents a reasonable dose for susceptible gram-positive bacterial pathogens. Higher doses (greater than or equal to 25 mg/kg) or IV administration would be required for most gram-negative bacteria. Adverse effects of sufficient severity to limit use of the drug, especially by the oral route of administration, were not encountered under the single-dose experimental conditions used.  相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To determine the pharmacokinetics of acetazolamide administered IV and orally to horses. ANIMALS: 6 clinically normal adult horses. PROCEDURE: Horses received 2 doses of acetazolamide (4 mg/kg of body weight, IV; 8 mg/kg, PO), and blood samples were collected at regular intervals before and after administration. Samples were assayed for acetazolamide concentration by high-performance liquid chromatography, and concentration-time data were analyzed. RESULTS: After IV administration of acetazolamide, data analysis revealed a median mean residence time of 1.71 +/- 0.90 hours and median total body clearance of 263 +/- 38 ml/kg/h. Median steady-state volume of distribution was 433 +/- 218 ml/kg. After oral administration, mean peak plasma concentration was 1.90 +/- 1.09 microg/ml. Mean time to peak plasma concentration was 1.61 +/- 1.24 hours. Median oral bioavailability was 25 +/- 6%. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Oral pharmacokinetic disposition of acetazolamide in horses was characterized by rapid absorption, low bioavailability, and slower elimination than observed initially after IV administration. Pharmacokinetic data generated by this study should facilitate estimation of appropriate dosages for acetazolamide use in horses with hyperkalemic periodic paralysis.  相似文献

The effect of probenecid given by intravenous (i.v.), intramuscular (i.m.) and subcutaneous (s.c.) injection on the pharmacokinetics of cefotaxime was studied in six Merino ewes. When given intravenously, probenecid increased significantly (P less than 0.05) the plasma half-life of cefotaxime three-fold (to 0.94 +/- 0.32 h) and the area under the curve (AUC) approximately two-fold (to 41.1 +/- 16.8 micrograms.h/ml), and decreased plasma cefotaxime clearance (ClB) 45% (to 0.648 +/- 0.191 l/h/kg). When given with probenecid intravenously, renal clearance (ClR), volume of the central compartment (VC), volume of distribution steady state (Vd(ss], and the amount excreted in urine unchanged did not alter significantly. When given by i.m. injection, probenecid and cefotaxime were well tolerated and cefotaxime was well absorbed (101 +/- 45%). When given by s.c. injection, only 40 +/- 25% cefotaxime was absorbed. When given intramuscularly or subcutaneously, probenecid appeared to reduce the ClB and ClR of cefotaxime, probably because plasma probenecid concentrations are prolonged. Probenecid did not appear to affect the distribution of cefotaxime.  相似文献

A 2 X 2 crossover design trial was conducted in gilts to determine the bioavailability and pharmacokinetics of tetracycline hydrochloride. The bioavailability of tetracycline hydrochloride administered orally to fasted gilts was approximately 23%. After intravascular administration, the disposition kinetics of tetracycline in plasma were best described by a triexponential equation. The drug had a rapid distribution phase followed by a relatively slow elimination phase, with half-life of 16 hours. Its large volume of distribution (4.5 +/- 1.06 L/kg) suggested that tetracycline is distributed widely in swine tissues. Total body clearance was 0.185 +/- 0.24 L/kg/h. Other pharmacokinetic variables were estimated. In a second trial, 3 gilts were fed a ration containing 0.55 g of tetracycline hydrochloride/kg of feed. Resulting plasma concentration of tetracycline was determined at selected times during 96 hours after exposure to the medicated feed. Plasma drug concentration peaked (0.6 micrograms/ml) at 72 hours after access to the medicated feed.  相似文献

The pharmacokinetics and bioavailability of theophylline in horses were investigated following both intravenous and intragastric administration of aminophylline solutions at doses corresponding to 15 and 10 mg/kg theophylline base. A rapid distributive phase with a half-life of approximately 15-30 min was followed by a slower elimination half-life averaging 15-17 h. The apparent volume of distribution averaged 850-900 ml/kg. Theophylline, administered as aminophylline solution, was both rapidly and completely absorbed from the equine digestive tract. Based on the bioavailability and disposition kinetics of theophylline, an intragastric dosage regimen for aminophylline consisting of the administration of 5 mg/kg at 12 h intervals would be expected to maintain plasma theophylline concentrations within the therapeutic range.  相似文献

Effect of probenecid on pharmacokinetics of 99mTc-mercaptoacetylytriglycine (99mTc-MAG3) in dogs was investigated before (control), and after 15 min and 24 h of i.v. injection of probenecid (20 mg/kg). Plasma concentration-time profiles of 99mTc-MAG3 were described with a two-compartment open model. Plasma 99mTc-MAG3 clearances (Clp, ml/min/kg) were 7.9 +/- 0.5, 3.3 +/- 0.5 and 4.8 +/- 1.3 in control, 15 min and 24 h after probenecid administration respectively. Similarly, the biological half-lives at elimination phase (t(1/2), h) were 0.61 +/- 0.09, 0.79 +/- 0.11 and 0.74 +/- 0.12, and volumes of distribution at steady state (Vdss, L/kg) were 0.29 +/- 0.04, 0.20 +/- 0.05 and 0.25 +/- 0.06 respectively. The prolonged biological half-life and decreased Vdss decreased Clp significantly. Clp was a function of plasma probenecid concentration based on Michaelis-Menten kinetics. The maximum Clp inhibition (Imax) by probenecid and the plasma probenecid concentration that induced 50% of Imax (I50) were estimated to be 72 +/- 12% and 13 +/- 8 microg/ml respectively. This means that the rest (about 28%) of the Clp is not blocked by probenecid alone, suggesting the possibility of another route(s) of elimination or renal transporters which are independent from probenecid. Moreover, inter-species correlation between Clp of 99mTc-MAG3 and body weight are discussed.  相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To determine the pharmacokinetics of enrofloxacin administered IV and orally to foals. ANIMALS: 5 clinically normal foals. PROCEDURE: A 2-dose cross-over trial with IV and oral administration was performed. Enrofloxacin was administered once IV (5 mg/kg of body weight) to 1-week-old foals, followed by 1 oral administration (10 mg/kg) after a 7-day washout period. Blood samples were collected for 48 hours after the single dose IV and oral administrations and analyzed for plasma enrofloxacin and ciprofloxacin concentrations by use of high-performance liquid chromatography. RESULTS: For IV administration, mean +/- SD total area under the curve (AUC0-infinity) was 48.54 +/- 10.46 microg x h/ml, clearance was 103.72 +/- 0.06 ml/kg/h, half-life (t1/2beta) was 17.10 +/- 0.09 hours, and apparent volume of distribution was 2.49 +/- 0.43 L/kg. For oral administration, AUC0-infinity was 58.47 +/- 16.37 microg x h/ml, t1/2beta was 18.39 +/- 0.06 hours, maximum concentration (Cmax) was 2.12 +/- 00.51 microg/ml, time to Cmax was 2.20 +/- 2.17 hours, mean absorption time was 2.09 +/- 0.51 hours, and bioavailability was 42 +/- 0.42%. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Compared with adult horses given 5 mg of enrofloxacin/kg IV, foals have higher AUC0-infinity, longer t1/2beta, and lower clearance. Concentration of ciprofloxacin was negligible. Using a target Cmax to minimum inhibitory concentration ratio of 1:8 to 1:10, computer modeling suggests that 2.5 to 10 mg of enrofloxacin/kg administered every 24 hours would be effective in foals, depending on minimum inhibitory concentration of the pathogen.  相似文献

Para-aminohippuric acid (PAHA, 0.1 mg/min/kg of body weight) was infused IV into 2 mares, followed by concurrent IV infusion of PAHA and probenecid (0.075, 0.15, 0.25, or 0.35 mg of probenecid/min/kg). Probenecid infusion reduced the clearance of PAHA at serum probenecid concentrations greater than 55 micrograms/ml. At 12-hour intervals, probenecid (in 5 repeated doses - 50, 75, 100, or 200 mg/kg) was administered by gavage to 2 mares. Mean serum probenecid concentration was greater than 55 micrograms/ml for all dosages. At dosages less than 200 mg/kg, accumulation of probenecid in the serum was minimal from the 1st to the 5th dose. At a dosage of 200 mg/kg, probenecid accumulated in the serum from the 1st to the 5th dose. Intragastric administration of 5 doses of probenecid (75 mg/kg) at 12-hour intervals to 6 mares reduced the clearance of PAHA by 50%. Bioavailability of probenecid was 117 and 102% for 2 mares after a single intragastric dose, compared with a single IV dose.  相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To determine pharmacokinetics of troglitazone in healthy cats after i.v. and oral administration of a single dose of the drug. ANIMALS: 5 healthy ovariohysterectomized adult cats. PROCEDURE: Using a randomized crossover design, cats were given 5 mg of troglitazone/kg of body weight i.v. and 40 mg of troglitazone/kg orally. Blood and urine samples were collected after drug administration, and concentrations of troglitazone in plasma and urine were determined by use of high-performance liquid chromatography. RESULTS: Area-moment analysis was used to calculate pharmacokinetic variables. Terminal phase half-life was 1.1 +/- 0.1 hours. Steady-state volume of distribution was 0.23 +/- 0.15 L/kg. After i.v. administration, clearance was 0.33 +/- 0.04 L/h/kg. Drug was not detected in urine samples. Mean bioavailability of orally administered troglitazone was 6.9%. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: The overall disposition of troglitazone in cats was similar to that reported in other species, including humans. Troglitazone has low and variable oral bioavailability. Clearance of the compound is moderate. Little if any unchanged troglitazone is excreted in urine; thus, metabolism and biliary excretion play predominant roles in elimination of the drug. On the basis of troglitazone pharmacokinetics in healthy cats, as well as on the basis of pharmacodynamics of the drug in humans and other animals, a regimen that uses a dosage of 20 to 40 mg/kg administered orally once or twice per day to cats will produce plasma concentrations of the insulin-sensitizing agent that have been documented to be effective in humans.  相似文献
