The influence of age on the pharmacokinetics of aditoprim in pigs after intravenous and oral administration

Abstract: Some pharmacokinetic parameters of aditoprim were determined in 3- and 6-month-old pigs. After intravenous administration of 5 mg/kg body weight, the mean total body clearance of the older pigs was smaller than that of the younger pigs. This difference was not reflected in the elimination half-life. After oral administration of 5 mg/kg body weight, the mean absorption rate constant was smaller and the mean absorption half-life was longer in the older pigs. The age-related changes in the pharmacokinetics of adi… 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 .…”

“…The pharmacokinetics of aditoprim, a reversible dihydrofolate reductase inhibitor in the preclinical study phase, have already been documented in cattle (Ludwig et ah, 1985;Jordan et ah, 1987;Lohuis et al, 1992;Sutter et al, 1993), sheep (Hanni et al, 1987), goats (Knoppert et al, 1988), pigs (Ludwig et al, 1985;Riond et al, 1992), horses (von Fellenberg et al, 1990), and dogs (Sutter et al, 1991). In these species, aditoprim is characterized by a long plasma elimination half-life ranging from 6.7 to 12.5 h and a volume of distribution larger than 4.4 L/kg.…”

“…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.…”
