ProtocolIn VivoFindings from mice, rats and monkeys suggested Flunixin meglumine as a potent non-narcotic analgesic agent after parenteral administration. After being subcutaneous administered, this agent showed higher efficacy than pentazocine, meperidine and codeine in the rat yeast paw test. Intramuscular administration and subcutaneous administration of Flunixin meglumine had similar effects. Moreover, orally administered Flunixin meglumine also exerted analgesic and anti-inflammatory activities. Based on mice abdominal constriction test, flunixin meglumine had comparable efficacy to pentazocine and was more potent than meperidine and codeine. In primates, 10 mg/kg flunixin meglumine showed an equal efficacy to that of 0.3 mg/kg morphine.
