Robenacoxib pharmacokinetics in sheep following oral, subcutaneous, and intravenous administration

open access: yesJournal of Veterinary Pharmacology and Therapeutics, Volume 45, Issue 6, Page 550-557, November 2022., 2022
Abstract The aim of this study was to evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) of robenacoxib (RX), a COX‐2 selective non‐steroidal anti‐inflammatory drug, in sheep after single subcutaneous (SC), oral (PO), and intravenous (IV) administration. Five healthy female sheep underwent a three‐phase parallel study design with a washout period of 4 weeks, in which ...
