The pharmacokinetics of promethazine were determined in seven camels (Camelus dromedarius) after an intravenous dose of 0.5 mg kg body weight.-1 The data obtained (median and range) were as follows: the elimination half-life (t1/2 beta) was 5.62 (2.84-6.51) h; the steady state volume of distribution (Vdss) was 8.90 (7.10-12.00) L kg-1, total body clearance (CT) was 24.5 (17.22-33.65) ml kg-1 min-1 and renal clearance (Clr) was 4.81 (1.97-5.48) ml kg-1 min-1.  相似文献   

The pharmacokinetics, metabolism and urinary detection time of caffeine in camels

The pharmacokinetics of caffeine were determined in 10 camels after an intravenous dose of 2.35 mg kg(-1). The data obtained (median and range) were as follows. The elimination half-life (t(1/2)) was 31.4 (21.2 to 58.9) hours, the steady state volume of distribution (V(SS)) was 0.62 (0.51 to 0.74) litre kg(-1)and the total body clearance (Cl(T)) was 14.7 (8.70 to 19.7) ml kg(-1)per hour. Renal clearance estimated in two camels was 0.62 and 0.34 ml kg(-1)per hour. In vitro plasma protein binding (mean +/-SEM, n = 10) to a concentration of 2 and 8 microg ml(-1)was 36.0 +/- 0.24 and 39.2 +/- 0.36 per cent respectively. Theophylline and theobromine were identified as caffeine metabolites in serum and urine. The terminal elimination half-life of the former, estimated in two camels, was 70. 4 and 124.4 hours. Caffeine could be detected in the urine for 14 days.  相似文献

The pharmacokinetics of theophylline were determined after an intravenous (i.v.) dose of 2.36 mg/kg in six camels and 4.72 mg/kg body weight in three camels. The data obtained (median and range) for the low and high dose, respectively, were as follows: the distribution half-lives (t1/2 alpha) were 1.37 (0.64-3.25) and 2.66 (0.83-3.5) h, the elimination half-lives (t1/2 beta) were 11.8 (8.25-14.9) and 10.4 (10.0-13.5) h, the steady state volumes of distribution (Vss) were 0.88 (0.62-1.54) and 0.76 (0.63-0.76) L/kg, volumes of the central compartment (Vc) were 0.41 (0.35-0.63) and 0.51 (0.36-0.52) L/kg, total body clearances (Clt) were 62.3 (39.4-97.0) and 50.2 (47.7-67.4) mL/h.kg body weight and renal clearance (Vr) for the low dose was 0.6 (0.42-0.96) mL/h.kg body weight. There was no significant difference in the pharmacokinetic parameters between the two doses. Theophylline protein binding at a concentration of 5 micrograms/mL was 32.2 +/- 3.3%. Caffeine was identified as a theophylline metabolite but its concentration in serum and urine was small. Based on the pharmacokinetic values obtained in this study, a dosage of 7.5 mg/kg body weight administered by i.v. injection at 12 h intervals can be recommended. This dosing regimen should achieve an average steady state serum concentration of 10 micrograms/mL with peak serum concentration not exceeding 15 micrograms/mL.  相似文献
