An assay was developed to detect reserpine and was subsequently used to monitor the plasma concentrations of the drug given intramuscularly to 5 horses. Reserpine could be detected and quantified for 48 hours after a single dose of 2.5 mg, and for a similar period after the second of two 2.5 mg doses given 13 d apart. Because of the apparently large variability in the pharmokinetics, exact times could not be given beyond which the drug would no longer be detectable in the plasma. However, following 2 doses of 2.5 mg given 13 days apart, at least 7 days must elapse after the second dose before there is no drug detectable in the plasma of most horses.
