This review covers bird drug administration, focusing on poultry. It details pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and optimal delivery via drinking water, feed, or injection for effective avian therapy.

Area of Science:

  • Veterinary Pharmacology
  • Avian Medicine
  • Drug Delivery Systems

Background:

  • Effective drug administration in birds is crucial for disease management and flock health.
  • Understanding avian gastrointestinal physiology and drug elimination is essential for optimizing therapeutic outcomes.
  • Current methods include individual and flock treatments, with drinking water and feed medication being common for poultry.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of drugs in birds.
  • To discuss optimal drug administration routes and considerations for poultry.
  • To provide insights into factors affecting drug efficacy and safety in avian species.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of avian gastrointestinal anatomy and physiology.

  • Examination of factors influencing drinking water and feed medication efficacy.
  • Description of parenteral and vaccine administration techniques.

    • Main Results:

    • Gastrointestinal anatomy and physiology significantly impact drug absorption and efficacy in birds.
    • Drinking water medication requires careful consideration of water quality, intake, system, lighting, and formulation.
    • Feed medication has specific requirements for optimal drug delivery.
    • Parenteral administration serves as an alternative for severe diseases.

    Conclusions:

    • Optimizing drug therapy in birds necessitates a thorough understanding of their unique physiology and drug interactions.
    • Careful management of drinking water and feed medication protocols is vital for successful flock treatment.
    • Parenteral administration and vaccination are important components of avian health management.
