Pharmacokinetics of Intravenous and Transdermal Flunixin Meglumine in Wool and Hair Sheep (Ovis aries)

open access: yesJournal of Veterinary Pharmacology and Therapeutics, Volume 48, Issue 6, Page 484-490, November 2025.
ABSTRACT The objective of the study was to evaluate the pharmacokinetics of flunixin meglumine of intravenous (IV) and transdermal (TD) flunixin meglumine administration on different coat types (wool vs. hair) in 12 healthy sheep. Polled dorset (wool) sheep (n = 6) and katahdin (hair) sheep (n = 6) received 2.2 mg/kg IV and 3.3 mg/kg TD with a 10‐day ...
