Context-sensitive half-time of fentanyl in dogs

چکیده
Context-sensitive half-times (CSHTs) of fentanyl in dogs were determined using pharmacokinetic models reported by Murphy et al. and Sano et al., and compared with a human model. The CSHT was defined as the time required for a 50% decrease in drug concentration in the central compartment after the termination of infusion. Although CSHTs increased gradually as the infusion time increased, the CSHTs in dogs were shorter than those in humans. The CSHTs at steady-state were 31.3 and 69.2 min in dogs, and 306.5 min in humans. The CSHTs of fentanyl in dogs are apparently shorter than those in humans; therefore, a continuous infusion of fentanyl may be a rational regimen in dogs, even if duration of infusion is extended.

متن کاملPopulation pharmacokinetics of transdermal fentanyl solution following a single dose administered prior to soft tissue and orthopedic surgery in dogs.
A novel, long-acting transdermal fentanyl solution (TFS) that delivers sustained plasma fentanyl concentrations following a single application for the control of postoperative pain has recently been approved for use in dogs. The pharmacokinetics (PKs) of this formulation have been evaluated in healthy laboratory dogs, but they have not been reported in a clinical population of dogs for which it...
متن کاملComparative pharmacokinetics of intravenous fentanyl and buprenorphine in healthy greyhound dogs.
The purpose of this study was to compare the pharmacokinetics of two highly protein-bound, lipophilic opioid drugs. Fentanyl (10 μg/kg) and buprenorphine (20 μg/kg) were administered intravenously (IV) to six healthy greyhound dogs (three males and three females). The doses were based on clinically administered doses for dogs. Plasma drug concentrations were determined using liquid chromatograp...

PURPOSE To compare the cardiopulmonary effects and the quality of anesthesia of the extradural lidocaine in combination with fentanyl or morphine in bitches undergoing ovariohysterectomy. METHODS Sixteen female dogs, were sedated with intramuscular acepromazine (0.05 mg kg-1), followed by anesthetic induction with intravenous propofol (4 mg kg-1), to perform the lumbosacral puncture. The anim...
متن کاملOpioid-induced analgesia in neonatal dogs: pharmacodynamic differences between morphine and fentanyl.
Whether the analgesic effects of opioids change as a neonate matures is not well understood. To address this issue, we determined the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of analgesic effects of morphine and fentanyl in 35 dogs aged 1 to 34 days. Opioids were infused to produce analgesia, response times to a noxious thermal stimulus were measured and plasma opioid concentrations were determine...
