Article Synopsis
  • - Lasalocid sodium is an ionophore agent used in poultry as a coccidiostat, but it poses risks for drug residue in eggs, mainly affecting laying hens due to feed contamination.
  • - Different breeds of hens, like Isa Brown and Green-legged Partridge, show significant differences in egg production and may also impact how lasalocid is absorbed and eliminated in their bodies.
  • - The study aimed to establish pharmacokinetic parameters for lasalocid in laying hens, using a crossover design, and found that the absorption rate is low (36%) and varies based on the hen breed.

Turkeys' body weight (BW) increases 10-fold within only 2.5 months, leading to a change in the pharmacokinetics (PK) of drugs according to allometric principles. Thus, the same dosage may lead to age-dependent variability in efficacy, in particular, to treatment failure and/or selection for resistance.
