The aim of this study was to know the pharmacokinetic parameters of salicylic acid in New Zealand sheep after administration of multiple intravenous and oral doses of sodium salicylate (sodium salt of salicylic acid). Results of the study suggest that the half-life of the drug was shorter and clearance was faster after intravenous administration as compared to that of the oral administration. The minimum effective concentration required to produce analgesia in humans (16.8 µL) was achieved in sheep for about 0.17 h in the current study after intravenous administration of 100 and 200 mg/kg body weight of sodium salicylate. However, oral administration of these doses failed to achieve the minimum effective concentration as mentioned above. This study is of significance as it adds valuable information on pharmacokinetics and its variation due to breed, species, age, gender and environmental conditions.

  • Flunixin, Extension to Horses
    The European Agency for the Evaluation of Medicinal Products Veterinary Medicines and Information Technology EMEA/MRL/744/00- FINAL June 2000 COMMITTEE FOR VETERINARY MEDICINAL PRODUCTS FLUNIXIN (Extension to horses) SUMMARY REPORT (2) 1. Flunixin is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), and a non-narcotic analgesic with antipyretic activities. In veterinary medicine, it is used with meglumine as solubilizer as flunixin meglumine. Flunixin meglumine is used in the alleviation of inflammation and pain associated with musculo-skeletal disorders and colic in horses; the control of acute inflammation associated with infectious diseases in cattle and as an aid in the treatment of mastitis metritis agalactia syndrome (MMA) in sows. A dose of 2.2 mg/kg bw by the intravenous route once a day for up to 3 days is indicated for bovines, whilst 2.2 mg/kg bw intramuscularly (up to 2 injections, 12 hours apart) is recommended for sows affected by MMA syndrome. Flunixin meglumine is also used in veterinary medicine in combination with oxytetracycline for the treatment of bovine pneumonia at a dose of 2 mg/kg bw (once a day for 3 to 5 days by the intravenous or the intramuscular routes). The Committee for Veterinary Medicinal Products (CVMP) previously retained an ADI of 6 µg/kg bw (i.e. 360 µg/person) for flunixin, by applying a safety factor of 100 to the NOEL of 0.6 mg/kg bw/day which was established in a 90-day repeated dose gavage study in the dog. Flunixin is currently included in Annex I of Council Regulation (EEC) No 2377/90 in accordance with the following table: Pharmacologically Marker Animal MRLs Target tissue Other active substance(s) residue species provisions Flunixin Flunixin Bovine 20 µg/kg Muscle 30 µg/kg Fat 300 µg/kg Liver 100 µg/kg Kidney 5-Hydroxy Bovine 40 µg/kg Milk flunixin Flunixin Porcine 50 µg/kg Muscle 10 µg/kg Skin + fat 200 µg/kg Liver 30 µg/kg Kidney An application has now been received for the extention of the MRLs for flunixin to edible tissues of horses.

Their action mechanism is based on the blocking of PROPIONIC ACID DERIVATIVES DERIVATIVES the biosynthesis of prostaglandins. NSAIDs are highly effective and extensively used, but they have some adverse side effects, such as hepatotoxicity, renal disorders or allergic reactions. In the European Union, to assure food safety and protect consumers, maximum residue limits have been established for some authorised NSAIDs in food products. Therefore, high throughput and reliable analytical methodology is required for the effective control of NSAIDs in food from animal Flufenamic acid origin. Liquid chromatography (LC) coupled to mass spectrometry (MS) is currently the technique of choice in confirmatory analysis of NSAIDs residues.

  • Topical NSAID for Osteoarthritis Safe and Effective (Print)
    The Horse: Study: Topical NSAID for Osteoarthritis Safe and Effective (print) Study: Topical NSAID for Osteoarthritis Safe and Effective by: Stacey Oke, DVM, MSc February 26 2009 Article # 13686 Move over, Bute. In a new independent study, researchers at Colorado State University's Gail Holmes Equine Orthopaedic Research Center concluded that diclofenac liposomal cream (1% diclofenac sodium, trade name Surpass) is safer and more effective than phenylbutazone for treating discomfort associated with osteoarthritis in horses. Phenylbutazone, commonly known as "Bute," is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory (NSAID) drug administered systemically (i.e., intravenously or orally) to help control the pain and inflammation caused by osteoarthritis in horses. "Considering that phenylbutazone and other NSAIDs are known to have important adverse effects in horses when used long-term and that these drugs are not able to alter the course of OA but only help control clinical signs, alternatives are needed," explained researcher David Frisbie, DVM, PhD, Dipl. ACVS. One such alternative is diclofenac liposomal cream--an NSAID that is applied to the skin overlying the affected joint(s) to control pain and inflammation of the tarsal, carpal, metacarpophalangeal, metatarsophalangeal and proximal interphalangeal joints. This product is approved by the Food and Drug Administration and is the first product of its kind manufactured for horses. Results of this study were presented at the 2007 annual American Association of Equine Practitioners' conference and were recently published in the study, "Evaluation of topically administered diclofenac liposomal cream for treatment of horses with experimentally induced osteoarthritis," in the February edition of the American Journal of Veterinary Research.

For further details go to www.save-vultures.org Flunixin: a vulture-toxic drug SAVE 11.2016 Flunixin is toxic to Gyps vultures; however, meloxicam is not toxic to Gyps vultures and an effective alternative to flunixin for veterinary purposes Aim This paper, intended for decision-makers involved in drug licensing, presents evidence of the toxicity of flunixin, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), to Gyps vultures; and the safety, to both vultures and domesticated animals, and effectiveness, in domesticated animals, of meloxicam, an alternative NSAID. Executive summary 1. The NSAID flunixin has been found in dead wild Gyps vultures. 2. Wild vultures are exposed to NSAIDs when feeding on carcasses of domesticated ungulates treated with these drugs shortly before death. 3. Published and unpublished data from wildlife forensic investigations in Spain shows visceral gout (i.e., a clinical sign of renal failure in birds) and flunixin residue, but not diclofenac residue, in carcasses of three Eurasian griffon vultures Gyps fulvus. 4. Captive vultures are also exposed to NSAIDs through veterinary care. 5. A survey of wildlife veterinarians found the use of flunixin caused visceral gout and death in 2 out of 4 cases involving a captive Gyps vulture.

Phenylbutazone – sometimes also referred to as “bute” – is a substance that falls into the class of drugs known as non steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). NSAIDs are routinely used as painkillers in human and veterinary medicine. Phenylbutazone was introduced in 1949 as a human medicine for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis and gout. These days it is used only under specialist supervision in patients who suffer from a severe form of arthritis where other treatments have not worked. Phenylbutazone is used for the treatment of pain and fever in horses and dogs.

Clynes National Cell and Tissue Culture Centre, Dublin City University, Glasnevin, Dublin 9, Ireland The eVect on cytotoxicity of combining a range of clinically important non-steroidal anti-in¯amma- tory drugs (NSAIDs) with a variety of chemotherapeutic drugs was examined in the human lung cancer cell lines DLKP, A549, COR L23P and COR L23R and in a human leukaemia line HL60/ADR. A speci®c group of NSAIDs (indomethacin, sulindac, tolmetin, acemetacin, zomepirac and mefenamic acid) all at non-toxic levels, signi®cantly increased the cytotoxicity of the anthracyclines (doxorubicin, daunorubicin and epirubicin), as well as teniposide, VP-16 and vincristine, but not the other vinca alkaloids vinblastine and vinorelbine. Asubstantial number of other anticancer drugs, including methotrexate, 5-¯uorouracil, cytarabine, hydroxyurea, chlorambucil, cyclophosphamide, cisplatin, carboplatin, mitoxantrone, actinomycin D, bleomycin, paclitaxel and camptothecin, were also tested, but displayed no synergy in combination with the NSAIDs. The synergistic eVect was concentration dependent. The eVect appears to be independent of the cyclo-oxygenase inhibitory ability of the NSAIDs, as (i) the synergistic combination could not be reversed by the addition of prostaglandins D2 or E2; (ii) sulindac sulphone, a metabolite of sulindac that does not inhibit the cyclooxygenase enzyme, was positive in the combination assay: and (iii) many NSAIDs known to be cyclo-oxygenase inhibitors, e.g.

Clinical Classif. • Non selective Irreversible COX inhibitors • Non slective Reversible COX inhibitors • Preferential COX 2 inhibitors • 10‐20 fold cox 2 selective • meloxicam, etodolac, nabumetone • Selective COX 2 inhibitors • > 50 fold COX ‐2 selective • Celecoxib, Etoricoxib, Rofecoxib, Valdecoxib • COX 3 Inhibitor? PCM Cyclooxygenase‐1 (COX‐1): -constitutively expressed in wide variety of cells all over the body. -"housekeeping enzyme" -ex. gastric cytoprotection, hemostasis Cyclooxygenase‐2 (COX‐2): -inducible enzyme -dramatically up-regulated during inflammation (10-18X) -constitutive : maintains renal blood flow and renal electrolyte homeostasis Salicylates Acetyl salicylic acid (aspirin). Kinetics: • Well absorbed from the stomach, more from upper small intestine. • Distributed all over the body, 50‐80% bound to plasma protein (albumin). • Metabolized to acetic acid and salicylates (active metabolite). • Salicylate is conjugated with glucuronic acid and glycine. • Excreted by the kidney.

In the United States (U.S.), these procedures are frequently performed without pain relief. Although non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are used in food-animal production systems, no such pain relief drugs are federally approved in the U.S. for controlling procedural pain in cattle to date. Recent increases in consumer, retailer and producer commitment to improving the welfare of food-animals necessitate a closer look into pain control efforts for livestock. Therefore, this review comprehensively evaluated existing literature to summarize three NSAIDs (meloxicam, flunixin and aspirin) (1) pharmacokinetics and (2) administration outcome in regard to pain control during castration and disbudding procedures, in cattle. The sample size contained notable variability and a general deficiency of validated and replicated methodologies for assessing pain in cattle represent on-going challenges. Future research Citation: Wagner, B.K.; Nixon, E.; should prioritize replication of pain assessment techniques across different experimental conditions Robles, I.; Baynes, R.E.; Coetzee, J.F.; to close knowledge gaps identified by the present study and facilitate examination of the effectiveness Pairis-Garcia, M.D.
