    (AAU, Anand, 1991) BHAVSAR, S. K.; Malik, J. K.
    In the present study, pharmacokinetics and dosage of metronidazole were determined in cow calves following single intravenous (20 mg/kg body weight) and oral (20 and 50 mg/kg body weight) administration. As compared to intravenous administration lower levels of metronidazole were estimated in plasma following oral adminis tration . The therapeutic plasma concentration of metronidazole was maintained upto 6 h following intravenous administration. Whereas after oral administration at dosage levels of 20 and 50 mg/kg body weight, it was maintained for 3 and 10 h, respectively, The pharmacokinetics of metronidazole after intravenous administration was best described by a two-compartment open model, following intravenous administration, the distribution and elimination half lives , volume of distribution and total body clearance were 0.07 ± 0.01 h, 1.92 ± 0.05 h, 0.79 ± 0.03 1.kg-1 and 283.49 ± 6.15ml. h-1. kg-1 respectively.
