Pharmacokinetics of a high dose of gentamicin administered intravenously or intramuscularly to horses

Abstract

Administration of a high dose of gentamicin i.v. or i.m. resulted in peak plasma concentrations, AUC, and minimum trough plasma concentrations. Results indicate once-daily administration of gentamicin might be as efficacious and safe as multiple-dose daily administration in accordance with traditional low-dose regimens, similar to those used in other species.
