Pharmacokinetics of Florfenicol was established in the plasma of poultry. Florfenicol was given as multiple dose 30 mg.kg−1 orally daily for 5 days in poultry. The mean values of half-life,body clearance (ClB) and mean volume of distribution (Vdarea) were 8.39 and 7.91 h; 0.5 and 0.29 l.h−1.kg−1 and 4.8 and 2.70 l.kg−1 after first and last dose, respectively. On the basis of depletion study for Florfenicol in poultry, a withdrawal time of 72 h was calculated.
