Phenobarbital pharmacokinetics in neonates

Clinical Pharmacology & Therapeutics, 1978
Phenobarbital pharmacokinetics after intravenous injection were studied in 8 neonates with seizures. Subjects ranged in gestational age from 30 to 40 wk. Plasma concentrations of phenobarbital were measured by enzyme‐multiplied immunoassay (EMIT). The volume of distribution (Vd) of phenobarbital was 0.97 ± .15 L/kg which was independent of the dose ...

Pharmacokinetics of phenobarbital in the horse

American Journal of Veterinary Research, 1987
SUMMARY Pharmacokinetics of phenobarbital was examined in 6 mature horses after 12 mg of phenobarbital/kg of body weight was infused over 20 minutes. Biexponential decrease in serum phenobarbital concentrations was observed with a distribution-phase half-life of 0.101 ± 0.086 hour (mean ± sd) and a terminal-phase elimination half-life of 18.3 ± 3.65 ...
