Research Note: Pharmacokinetics of Aditoprim in Turkeys After Intravenous and Oral Administration

Abstract: The pharmacokinetics of aditoprim, a not yet commercialized selective reversible inhibitor of dihydrofolate reductase, were determined in turkeys after intravenous (5 mg/kg BW) and oral (5.46 +/- .44 mg/kg BW) administration. The mean (+/- SD) total body clearance of 26.9 +/- 2.3 mL/min per kg BW was high when compared with that determined for other species, presumably a consequence of the higher metabolic rate of birds. Consequently, mean aditoprim elimination half-life was relatively short (3.3 +/- .2 h). As… Show more

“…ADP has excellent pharmacokinetic characteristics. Previous studies have shown that ADP has longer elimination half lives (3.3~14.8 h) and higher distribution volumes (4.6~10.4 L/kg) than those of TMP in pig, calf, monkey, sheep and some other animal species 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 , and a similar pattern is observed for ADP where the distribution volume is about four times higher than that of TMP. For the poor pharmacokinetics 18 and the development of antibacterial resistance 19 20 21 , TMP is often used in combination with sulfonamides as antibacterial synergist for the treatment and prevention of bacterial infections in veterinary and human medicine 22 .…”

“…It is reported that this compound is particularly active against Enterobacteriaceae , Haemophilus , Staphylococcus , Streptococcus , Vibrio , and Aeromonas 2 . Moreover, ADP provides significant pharmacokinetic advantages, including long half-lives (6.1–11.9 h) and high tissue distribution volume (4.4–12.2 L/kg) in various animal species such as sheep 3 4 5 , cattle 6 7 8 9 , pig 10 , horse 11 , turkey 12 , dog 13 , and monkey 14 . These earlier studies have shown that ADP had a good efficacy when administered alone or combined with sulfonamides in a one-day dose for the treatment of respiratory and gastro-intestinal infections.…”

“…PK studies have shown that ADP has the characteristics of wide distribution in the body, large apparent volume, the long half-life, high bioavailability, etc. It can be used as an alternative to TMP and has broad market prospects [ 22 , 25 , 26 , 27 , 28 ].…”
