Aspects of the Pharmacokinetics of Albendazole Sulphoxide in Sheep

The plasma disposition kinetics of albendazole sulphoxide (ABZSO), ((+)ABZSO and (–)ABZSO) and its sulphone metabolite (ABZSO₂) were investigated in adult sheep. Six Corriedale sheep received albendazole sulphoxide by intravenous injection at 5 mg/kg live weight. Jugular blood samples were taken serially for 72 h and the plasma was analysed by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) for albendazole (ABZ), ABZ sulphoxide (ABZSO) and albendazole sulphone (ABZSO₂). Albendazole was not detected in the plasma at any time after the treatment, ABZSO and ABZSO₂ being the main metabolites detected between 10 min and 48 h after treatment. A biexponential plasma concentration versus time curve was observed for both ABZSO and ABZSO₂ following the intravenous treatment. The plasma AUC values for ABZSO and ABZSO₂ were 52.0 and 10.8 (g.h)/ml, respectively. The ABZSO₂ metabolite was measurable in plasma between 10 min and 48 h after administration of ABZSO, reaching a peak concentration of 0.38 g/ml at 7.7 h after treatment. Using a chiral phase-based HPLC method, a biexponential plasma concentration versus time curve was observed for both ABZSO enantiomers. The total body clearance was higher for the (–) than for the (+) enantiomer, the values being 270.6 and 147.75 (ml/h)/kg, respectively. The elimination half-life of the (–) enantiomer was shorter than that of the (+) enantiomer, the values being 4.31 and 8.33 h, respectively. The enantiomeric ratio (+)ABZSO/(–)ABZSO at t ₀ was close to unity. However, the ratio in the plasma increased with time.     

Pharmacokinetic assessment of the monepantel plus oxfendazole combined administration in dairy cows

Monepantel (MNP) is a novel anthelmintic compound launched into the veterinary pharmaceutical market. MNP is not licenced for use in dairy animals due to the prolonged elimination of its metabolite monepantel sulphone (MNPSO₂) into milk. The goal of this study was to evaluate the presence of potential in vivo drug‐drug interactions affecting the pattern of milk excretion after the coadministration of the anthelmintics MNP and oxfendazole (OFZ) to lactating dairy cows. The concentrations of both parent drugs and their metabolites were measured in plasma and milk samples by HPLC. MNPSO₂ was the main metabolite recovered from plasma and milk after oral administration of MNP. A high distribution of MNPSO₂ into milk was observed. The milk‐to‐plasma ratio (M/P ratio) for this metabolite was equal to 6.75. Conversely, the M/P ratio of OFZ was 1.26. Plasma concentration profiles of MNP and MNPSO₂ were not modified in the presence of OFZ. The pattern of MNPSO₂ excretion into milk was also unchanged in animals receiving MNP plus OFZ. The percentage of the total administered dose recovered from milk was 0.09 ± 0.04% (MNP) and 2.79 ± 1.54% (MNPSO₂) after the administration of MNP alone and 0.06 ± 0.04% (MNP) and 2.34 ± 1.38% (MNPSO₂) after the combined treatment. The presence of MNP did not alter the plasma and milk disposition kinetics of OFZ. The concentrations of the metabolite fenbendazole sulphone tended to be slightly higher in the coadministered group. Although from a pharmacodynamic point of view the coadministration of MNP and OFZ may be a useful tool, the presence of OFZ did not modify the in vivo pharmacokinetic behaviour of MNP and therefore did not result in reduced milk concentrations of MNPSO₂.     

Oxfendazole treatment of non-parasitized lambs and its effect on the immune system

Ten parasite-free lambs were drenched with oxfendazole on days 0 and 28 and, one day after each drench, were injected with human erythrocytes and ovalbumin. Ten other antigen-injected lambs were not drenched (controls). Lymphocytes collected 3 days after each antigen injection and cultured in RPMI 1640 plus 5% fetal calf serum (FCS) and lymphocytes collected 3 days after the first and 3 and 7 days after the second antigen injection and cultured in 50% autologous serum had decreased blastogenic activity compared with control lymphocytes. After the second drench, decreased blastogenesis was seen with lymphocytes collected on days 3 and 7 and cultured in 5% FCS and concanavalin A (Con A) and on day 3 when cultured in 5% FCS and phytohaemagglutinin (PHA). Decreased blastogenesis was also seen with lymphocytes collected 7 and 29 days after the second injection of antigen and cultured in 50% autologous serum plus Con A and on days 3, 7 and 29 when cultured in 50% autologous serum and PHA.Significantly depressed antibody responses to both antigens were seen after the second drench. The serum complement level was depressed 3 days after the second injection of antigen. Serum nitric oxide levels were significantly depressed 3 and 21 days after the first and 7 and 21 days after the second injection of antigen. There were no differences in levels of growth-promoting hormones but the drenched lambs gained significantly more weight than the controls.Abbreviations C complement - Con A concanavalin A - cpm counts per minute - EIA enzyme immunoassay - FCS fetal calf serum - IGF insulin-like growth factor - oIGF-1 ovine insulin-like growth factor-1 - PBS phosphate-buffered saline - PHA phytohaemagglutinin     

Pharmacokinetic Behaviour of Albendazole Sulphoxide Enantiomers in Male and Female Sheep

Benzimidazole anthelmintic drugs are widely used in veterinary practice. Albendazole sulphoxide (ABZSO) is a benzimidazole drug with two enantiomers, as a consequence of a chiral centre in the sulphoxide group. The kinetics of these enantiomers were studied in male and female sheep. Plasma samples were obtained from the animals between 0.5 and 72 h after oral administration of 7.5 mg/kg of a racemic formulation of ABZSO (total-ABZSO). After a liquid–liquid extraction, the samples were analysed by HPLC to determine the concentrations of total-ABZSO and of the sulphone metabolite (ABZSO₂). During the chromatographic analysis, the ABZSO peak was collected and reanalysed by an HPLC technique using a Chiral AGP column to quantify the enantiomeric proportion therein. After kinetic analysis, the AUCs obtained for the (+)-ABZSO were 5.8 and 4.0 times higher than those for the (–)-ABZSO in male and female animals, respectively. The mean residence times were 23.4 and 16.1 h for (+)-ABZSO and 22.2 and 17.4 h for (–)-ABZSO for male and female animals, respectively. The only significant difference between the sexes (p<0.05) was in the T _max of the (–)-ABZSO. Comparing both enantiomers within each sex, significant differences were found in all the kinetic parameters. Finally, no kinetic differences were found between sex for total-ABZSO or ABZSO₂.     

Some Pharmacokinetic Parameters of Eprinomectin in Goats following Pour-on Administration

Some pharmacokinetic parameters of eprinomectin were determined in goats following topical application at a dose rate of 0.5 mg/kg. The plasma concentration versus time data for the drug were analysed using a one-compartment model. The maximum plasma concentration of 5.60±1.01 ng/ml occurred 2.55 days after administration. The area under the concentration–time curve (AUC) was 72.31±11.15 ng day/ml and the mean residence time (MRT) was 9.42±0.43 days. Thus, the systemic availability of eprinomectin to goats was significantly lower than that for cows. The low concentration of eprinomectin in the plasma of goats suggests that the pour-on dose of 0.5 mg/kg would be less effective in this species than in cows. Further relevant information about the optimal dosage and residues in the milk of dairy goats is needed before eprinomectin should be used in this species.     

Pharmacokinetics of Amikacin in Lactating Sheep

The pharmacokinetics of amikacin (AMK) were investigated after intravenous (i.v.) and intramuscular (i.m.) administration of 7.5 mg/kg bw in 6 healthy lactating sheep. After i.v. AMK injection (as a bolus), the elimination half-life (t1/2beta), the volume of distribution (Vd,area), the total body clearance (ClB) and the area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) were 1.64 +/- 0.06 h, 0.19 +/- 0.02 L/kg, 1.36 +/- 0.1 ml/min per kg and 94.09 +/- 6.95 (microg.h)/ml, respectively. The maximum milk concentration of AMK (Cmax), the area under the milk concentration-time curve (AUCmilk) and the ratio AUCmilk/AUCserum were 1.18 +/- 0.22 microg/ml, 22.45 +/- 3.21 (micro.h)/ml and 0.24 +/- 0.02, respectively. After i.m. administration of AMK the t1/2beta, Cmax, time of Cmax (tmax) and absolute bioavailability (Fabs) were 1.29 +/- 0.1 h, 16.97 +/- 1.54 microg/ml, 1.0 +/- 0 h and 64.88% +/- 6.16%, respectively. The Cmax, AUCmilk and the ratio AUCmilk/AUCserum were 0.33 microg/ml, 1.67 (microg.h)/ml and 0.036, respectively.

Effect of single and divided dose administration on thepharmacokinetics of albendazole in sheep and goat

The pharmacokinetics of albendazole were studied in sheep and goats following single and divided doseadministration at nematocidal and flukicidal dose rates. The disposition curves of the metabolites indicated increased uptake of the drug both in sheep and goats at divided dose schedules compared to single dose administration (P<0.05). The increased bioavailability of benzimidazole anthelmintics in divided dose schedules could improve their efficacy and help in extending their lives.

Enhanced Plasma Availability of the Metabolites of Albendazole in Fasted Adult Sheep

Lifschitz, A., Virkel G., Mastromarino, M. and Lanusse C., 1997. Enhanced plasma availability of the metabolites of albendazole in fasted adult sheep. Veterinary Research Communications, 21 (3), 201-211The influence of fasting prior to treatment and of dosing rate on the plasma availability and disposition kinetics of albendazole (ABZ) and its sulphoxide (ABZSO) and sulphone (ABZSO2) metabolites was studied in adult sheep grazing on pasture. A micronized suspension of ABZ was administered orally at either 7.5 mg/kg (group A) or 11.3 mg/kg (group C) to sheep fed ad libitum, and at 7.5 mg/kg to sheep subjected to a 24 h fasting period prior to treatment (group B). Blood samples were taken serially over 96 h after treatment, and the plasma was analysed for ABZ and its metabolites by high-performance liquid chromatography. ABZSO and ABZSO2 were recovered from the plasma. Fasting induced marked modifications in the pharmacokinetic behaviour of the ABZ metabolites in sheep. An extended absorption process, with a delayed peak concentration in the plasma, was observed for both metabolites in the fasted sheep. Significantly higher area under the curve (AUC) and peak plasma concentration (Cmax) values were obtained for both metabolites in the fasted animals compared to those fed ad libitum. Delayed elimination with prolonged detection in plasma was also observed in the fasted sheep. Treatment with ABZ at 7.5 mg/kg in the starved animals resulted in bioequivalence to the administration of the compound at a 50% higher dose rate (11.3 mg/kg) in the fed animals. It is suggested that fasting enhances ABZ dissolution and absorption by delaying its passage down the digestive tract.     

Pharmacokinetics of Amoxicillin Trihydrate in Desert Sheep and Nubian Goats

The pharmacokinetics of amoxicillin were studied in five Desert sheep and five Nubian goats after intravenous (i.v.) or intramuscular (i.m.) administration of a single dose of 10 mg/kg body weight. Following i.v. injection, the plasma concentration-versus-time data were best described by a two-compartment open model. The kinetic variables were similar in both species except for the volume of the central compartment (V_c), which was larger in sheep (p<0.05). Following i.m. injection, except for the longer half-life time of absorption in goats (p<0.05), there were no significant differences in other pharmacokinetic parameters between sheep and goats. The route of amoxicillin administration had no significant effect on the terminal elimination half-life in either species. The bioavailability of the drug (F) after i.m. administration was high (>0.90) in both species. These results indicate that the pharmacokinetics of amoxicillin did not differ between sheep and goats; furthermore, because of the high availability and short half-life of absorption, the i.m. route gives similar results to the i.v. route. Therefore, identical intramuscular and intravenous dose regimens should be applicable to both species.     

Some Pharmacokinetic Parameters and Dosage Regimens for a Long-Acting Formulation of Oxytetracycline in 6- to 8-Month-Old Male Calves

A two-way crossover study was conducted in crossbred male calves (6–8 months old) to determine the bioavailability, pharmacokinetics and dosage regimens for a long-acting formulation of oxytetracycline (OTC-LA). The half-lives of oxytetracycline after intravenous and intramuscular administration were 7.8 h and 24 h, respectively. The volume of distribution and total body clearance values of the drug were 0.86±0.07 L and 76.1±3.3 (ml/h)/kg, respectively. The maximum concentration of the drug in the serum (4.7–7.4 g/ml) was achieved 8–10 h after intramuscular administration. The minimum therapeutic serum concentration of drug of 0.5 g/ml was maintained between 15 min and 84 h after intramuscular administration. The intramuscular bioavailability of the drug was 89.1±4.2%. The dosage regimens to maintain the minimum therapeutic serum concentrations of OTC following intramuscular administration of OTC-LA were computed.     

阿苯达唑和奥芬达唑对体外培养猪囊尾蚴能量代谢变化的影响

测定了在阿苯达唑和奥芬达唑作用下体外培养猪囊尾蚴磷酸烯醇式丙酮酸羧激酶（PEPCK）、丙酮酸激酶（PK）、延胡索酸还原酶（FR）、苹果酸酶（ME）活性的变化及葡萄糖（GLC）、乳酸（LAC）含量的变化。结果表明，2种药物作用均可在体外作用条件下显著改变未成熟期及成熟期猪囊尾蚴的能量代谢。提示，苯并咪唑氨基甲酸酯类药物的作用机理可能是通过干扰虫体能量代谢，阻断能量的产生，导致虫体死亡。

Some Pharmacokinetic Parameters of Pefloxacin in Lactating Goats

The aim of this study was to elucidate some of the pharmacokinetic parameters of pefloxacin in lactating goats (n = 5) following intravenous (i.v.) or intramuscular (i.m.) injections of 10 mg/kg bw. Serially obtained serum, milk and urine samples were collected at precise time intervals, and the drug concentrations were assayed using a microbiological assay. A two-compartment open model best described the decrease of pefloxacin concentration in the serum after intravenous administration. The maximum serum concentration (C _p ⁰ ) was 8.4±0.48 g/ml; elimination half-life (t _1/2) was 1.6±0.3 h; total body clearance (Cl_tot) was 3.6±0.3 L/kg/h; steady-state volume of distribution (V _dss) was 5.14±0.21 L/kg; and the area under the curve (AUC) was 2.78±0.22 g.ml/h. Pefloxacin was absorbed rapidly after i.m. injection with an absorption half-life (t _1/2ab) of 0.32±0.02 h. The peak serum concentration (C _max) of 0.86±0.08 g/ml was attained at 0.75 h (T _max). The absolute bioavailability after i.m. administration was 70.63±1.13% and the serum protein-bound fraction ranged from 7.2% to 14.3%, with an average value of 9.8±1.6%. Penetration of pefloxacin from the blood into the milk was rapid and extensive, and the pefloxacin concentration in milk exceeded that in serum from 1 h after administration. The drug was detected in milk and urine for 10 and 72 h, respectively; no samples were taken after 72 h.
