This study investigated the effect of food or water deprivation on the pharmacokinetics of paracetamol in 30 Holstein-Friesian preruminant calves (10 controls, 10 food withheld and 10 water-deprived) aged 24–25 days. Control calves were given paracetamol at 24–25 days and again at 28–29 days of age. In the food withheld and water-deprived calves paracetamol studies were performed before and after 4 days of food or water deprivation. In the control group there were no significant differences in pharmacokinetic parameters for paracetamol in 24–25 and 28–29-day-old calves. Witholding food for 4 days was associated with an increase in the mean residence time (MRT) of paracetamol (P < 0.01). When food was withheld total body clearance (ClB) of paracetamol was significantly decreased (P < 0.05). The volume of distribution (V(ss)) was not significantly altered. Similarly, water deprivation was associated with a significant increase in MRT and significant decrease in ClB of paracetamol (P < 0.01). The V(ss) was not significantly altered. Food or water deprivation also influenced the formation of major metabolites (glucuronide and sulphate) of paracetamol. It is concluded that food or water deprivation may impair the elimination drugs that undergo metabolism by UDP-glucuronyltransferase and sulphotransferase in cattle.
