The pharmacokinetics of cyanamide after 35 mg kg −1 intravenous and oral administration to fasted and unfasted rats have been investigated. The plasma level are fitted well by a two‐compartment open model. The half‐life ( t 1/2 β) of cyanamide in the rat was 1 hour and the plasma clearance (C1 p ) was 0.02 (1 kg −1 ) min −1 . Food does not appear to modify the absolute bioavailability of cyanamide ( F = 93.3 per cent fasted, F = 85.5 per cent unfasted), although it does retard drug absorption.
