ABSTRACT
AIM OF THE WORK The study was conducted to evaluate the influence of theophylline pre-treatment on serum pharmacokinetics and milk elimination of tylosin following single intramuscular (IM) administrations in lactating goats. METHODS AND RESULTS:
In a cross-over study, tylosin was injected via intramuscular (IM) at a single dose of 15 mg/kg b.wt. After a one-month washout period goats received theophylline at a daily IM dose of 2 mg/kg b.wt. for seven consecutive days then tylosin was injected IM dose of 15 mg/kg b.wt. two hours after the last theophylline dosing. Blood samples were collected before and at 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, and 24 h post-injection. Samples were left to clot and then centrifuged to yield serum. Milk samples were collected before and at 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 24, 48, and 72 h post-injection from each goat by hand milking. Tylosin serum concentrations were determined by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Tylosin concentrations versus time were analyzed by a noncompartmental method. Tylosin Cmax significantly declined from 1.73 ± 0.10 to 1.01 ± 0.11 µg/ml, and attained Tmax values of 2 and 1 h, respectively in theophylline-pretreated goats. Moreover, theophylline pretreatment significantly shortened the elimination half-life (t1/2el) from 6.94 to 1.98 h, t1/2ka from 0.62 to 0.36 h and the mean residence time (MRT) from 8.02 to 4.31 h, also Vz/F and AUCs decreased from 11.91 to 7.70 L/kg and from 12.64 to 4.57 µg*h/ml, respectively, consequently, theophylline enhanced the clearance (Cl/F) of tylosin from the body. Similarly, tylosin milk concentrations were significantly lower in theophylline-pretreated goats than in goats that received tylosin alone and were detected up to 24 and 72 h in both groups, respectively. Moreover, the t1/2el and AUCs were significantly decreased from 14.68 ± 1.97 to 4.72 ± 0.48 h, and from 181 to 67.20 µg*h/ml, respectively.CONCLUSIONS:
The withdrawal period for tylosin in goat milk is at least 72 h. Theophylline pretreatment significantly decreases serum and milk tylosin concentrations to subtherapeutic levels, which could have serious clinical consequences such as failure of therapy. This means that after administering tylosin to goats, milk from these animals should not be consumed for at least 96 h to ensure that the milk is free from residues of the antibiotic.Key words
