The pharmacokinetic disposition of florfenicol was described in veal calves after administration of a single 22‐mg/kg dose intravenously, orally after a 12‐h fast and orally 5 min post feeding. Both serum concentrations and urinary excretion were studied. After intravenous administration the median elimination half‐life was 171.9 min while the half‐life of the distribution phase was 5.9 min. The median body clearance (Cl) and apparent volume of distribution (Vz) were 2.85 ml/kg/min and 0.78 1/kg, respectively. Following oral administration the median bio‐availability (f) was 0.88 for calves dosed after a 12‐h fast and 0.65 for calves dosed 5 min post feeding. Calves given the oral doses had a complex absorption pattern with delayed absorption. Slightly more than 50% of the administered dose both orally and intravenously was recovered as unchanged florfenicol in the urine by 30 h.
