abstract = {This preliminary clinical investigation of the
pharmacokinetic behavior of the main metamizole (dipyrone)
metabolites 4-methylaminoantipyrine (4-MAA) and
4-aminoantipyrine (4-AA) in calves undergoing umbilical
surgery is part of an already published main study. A single
intravenous dose of metamizole was added to
ketamine/xylazine/isoflurane anesthesia. Eight Simmental
calves weighing 90 ± 10.8 kg and aged 47.6 ± 10.4 days
received 40 mg/kg metamizole intravenously 10 minutes prior
to general anesthesia. Blood samples were collected over 24
hours and analyzed for 4-MAA and 4-AA. Meloxicam was
additionally given twice: 2.5 hours pre- and 20.5 hours
postsurgically. The pharmacokinetic profile of 4-MAA was
best fitted to a two-compartment model and was characterized
by a fast distribution half-life and slow elimination
half-life (t½alpha = 5.29 minutes, t½beta = 9.49 hours).
The maximum concentration (Cmax 101.63 μg/mL) was detected
at the first measurement time point 15 minutes after
administration. In contrast, 4-AA showed fast, high and
biphasic plasma peak concentration behavior in five calves
(2.54-2.66 μg/mL after 15-30 minutes, and 2.10-2.14 μg/mL
after 2-3.5 hours) with a t½beta of 8.87 hours, indicating
a rapid distribution and subsequent redistribution from
well-perfused organs. Alternatively, three calves exhibited
a slower and lower monophasic plasma peak concentration
(1.66 μg/mL after 6.5 hours) with a t½beta of 6.23 hours,
indicating slow accumulation in the intravascular
compartment. The maximum concentration and area under the
plasma concentration curve (AUC) of 4-AA were lower than
those of 4-MAA. This metabolic behavior supports our already
published data on clinical monitoring and plasma cortisol
concentrations (PCCs). Compared to those of saline controls,
lower PCCs correspond to the t½alpha of 4-MAA. Data on Tmax
and t½beta also match these clinical observations. However,
further studies are required to assess the exact analgesic
mechanism and potency of the metamizole metabolites in
calves.},
