  • Title: Chloramphenicol sodium succinate in the horse: serum, synovial, peritoneal, and urine concentrations after single-dose intravenous administration.

    Journal: Am J Vet Res; 1984 Mar; 45(3):578-80. PubMed ID: 6711989.
    Abstract:
    Six healthy adult mares were given a single IV dose (25 mg/kg of body weight) of chloramphenicol sodium succinate. Chloramphenicol concentrations in serum, synovial fluid, peritoneal fluid, and urine were measured serially over a 48-hour period. The highest measured serum chloramphenicol concentration was 6.21 micrograms/ml at 0.5 hour. Chloramphenicol was detected in synovial and peritoneal fluids, with mean peak concentrations of 3.89 micrograms/ml and 3.50 micrograms/ml, respectively, at 0.5 hour. Serum and synovial concentrations declined rapidly and were not measurable at 3 hours. Chloramphenicol could not be detected in peritoneal fluid at 6 hours. The serum half-life was 0.43 hour and the apparent volume of distribution was 2.83 L/kg. Urine concentrations of chloramphenicol peaked at 0.5 hour at 106.72 micrograms/ml and also declined rapidly. The drug could not be detected in the urine at 36 hours.
