Abstact Intravenous (iv), subcutaneous (sq), and topical (tp) lidocaine was administered to six horses in a cross‐over, randomized design study. Samples were collected for up to 72 hr. Compartmental models were used to investigate the pharmacokinetics of (LD) and its metabolites 3‐hydroxylidocaine (3‐OH), 4‐hydroxylidocaine (4‐OH), and monoethylglycinexylidide (MEGX). Metabolites 3‐OH and 4‐OH were present in conjugated forms, whereas LD and metabolite MEXG were present primarily in the un‐conjugated form. Plasma concentrations of LD after iv administration (100 mg) were described by three‐compartment model with an additional three compartments to describe the elimination of metabolites. Median (range) elimination micro‐constants ( K e ) for LD, 3‐OH, 4‐OH, and MEXG were 4.12 (2.62–6.23), 1.25 (1.10–2.15), 1.79 (1.22–2.39), and 1.69 (1.03–1.99)/hr, respectively. Median (range) values of alpha ( t ½α ), beta ( t ½β ), and gamma ( t ½γ ) half‐lives were 0.08 (0.07–0.13), 0.57 (0.15–1.25), and 4.11 (0.52–7.36) hr. Plasma concentrations of LD after sq (200 mg) administration were described by absorption and two‐compartment elimination model. The median (range) of the LD absorption half‐life ( t ½ab ) was 0.47 (0.29–0.61) hr. The K e for LD, 3‐OH, 4‐OH, and MEXG was 3.91 (1.48–9.25), 1.00 (0.78–1.08), 1.76 (0.96–2.11), and 1.13 (0.69–1.33)/hr. The median (range) of t ½α and t ½β was 0.15 (0.06–0.27) and 3.04 (2.53–6.39) hr. Plasma concentrations of LD after tp (400 mg) application were described by one‐compartment model with a t ½ab of 8.49 (5.16–11.80) hr. The K e for LD, 3‐OH, and MEXG was 0.24 (0.10–0.81), 0.41 (0.08–0.93), and 0.38 (0.26–1.14)/hr.
