Popis: | The pharmacokinetic profile of antimony in dogs was defined by administering it intravenously, intramuscularly and subcutaneously as N-methylglucamine antimoniate at a dose of about 25.65 mg of antimony kg-1 bodyweight. The results showed a different half-life for the three routes of administration: 20.5, 42.1 and 121.6 minutes for the intravenous, intramuscular and subcutaneous routes, respectively; peak time values (Tmax) were also different for the intramuscular (90 to 120 minutes) and subcutaneous (210 to 240 minutes) injection. The apparent bioavailability of antimony was > 100 per cent for the intramuscular and 100 per cent for the subcutaneous routes. The data obtained showed a relevant difference in the behaviour of the drug in the dog in comparison to that in humans. |
