Famotidine is commonly administered to cats. Prolonged famotidine administration results in decreased efficacy in humans, dogs, and cows, but the long-term effects in cats are unknown.
To compare the effect of 2 oral administration frequencies of famotidine, twice daily (Group 1) and twice daily every second day (Group 2), on intragastric pH and serum gastrin concentrations in cats. We hypothesized a diminished effect on intragastric pH would be observed over time in Group 1 but not Group 2.
Sixteen healthy cats.
Randomized, 2-factor repeated measures crossover design. Cats received 0.5-1.24 mg/kg (median, 0.87 mg/kg) famotidine twice daily or twice daily every second day for 14 consecutive days. Intragastric pH monitoring was used to record intragastric pH on treatment days 1-3 and 11-13. Mean pH and mean percentage time (MPT) intragastric pH was ≥3 and 4 were compared between and within treatment groups by analysis of variance.
Significant treatment group by time interactions were observed for mean intragastric pH, MPT intragastric pH ≥3 and 4 (P = .009, P = .02, P = .005, respectively). Interaction post hoc tests identified significant decreases in mean intragastric pH (P = .001), MPT ≥3 (P = .001), and MPT ≥4 (P = .001) on day 13 compared to day 1 in Group 1 but not in Group 2.
Oral famotidine administration results in a diminished effect on intragastric pH in healthy cats when given twice daily every day.
法莫替丁常用于猫。在人类、犬类和牛中,长期使用法莫替丁会导致疗效降低,但在猫中的长期影响尚不清楚。
比较法莫替丁两种口服给药频率(每日两次,第1组;每隔一天每日两次,第2组)对猫胃内pH值和血清胃泌素浓度的影响。我们假设随着时间推移,第1组对胃内pH值的影响会减弱,而第2组不会。
16只健康猫。
随机、双因素重复测量交叉设计。猫连续14天每天接受0.5 - 1.24毫克/千克(中位数,0.87毫克/千克)法莫替丁,每日两次或每隔一天每日两次。在治疗第1 - 3天和第11 - 13天,使用胃内pH监测记录胃内pH值。通过方差分析比较治疗组间和组内胃内平均pH值以及胃内pH值≥3和4的平均百分比时间(MPT)。
在胃内平均pH值、MPT胃内pH值≥3和4方面观察到显著的治疗组×时间交互作用(分别为P = 0.009、P = 0.02、P = 0.005)。交互作用的事后检验表明,与第1天相比,第13天第1组的胃内平均pH值(P = 0.001)、MPT≥3(P = 0.001)和MPT≥4(P = 0.001)显著降低,而第2组未出现这种情况。
