Para-aminohippuric acid (PAHA, 0.1 mg/min/kg of body weight) was infused IV into 2 mares, followed by concurrent IV infusion of PAHA and probenecid (0.075, 0.15, 0.25, or 0.35 mg of probenecid/min/kg). Probenecid infusion reduced the clearance of PAHA at serum probenecid concentrations greater than 55 micrograms/ml. At 12-hour intervals, probenecid (in 5 repeated doses - 50, 75, 100, or 200 mg/kg) was administered by gavage to 2 mares. Mean serum probenecid concentration was greater than 55 micrograms/ml for all dosages. At dosages less than 200 mg/kg, accumulation of probenecid in the serum was minimal from the 1st to the 5th dose. At a dosage of 200 mg/kg, probenecid accumulated in the serum from the 1st to the 5th dose. Intragastric administration of 5 doses of probenecid (75 mg/kg) at 12-hour intervals to 6 mares reduced the clearance of PAHA by 50%. Bioavailability of probenecid was 117 and 102% for 2 mares after a single intragastric dose, compared with a single IV dose.

D011339 Probenecid The prototypical uricosuric agent. It inhibits the renal excretion of organic anions and reduces tubular reabsorption of urate. Probenecid has also been used to treat patients with renal impairment, and, because it reduces the renal tubular excretion of other drugs, has been used as an adjunct to antibacterial therapy.
