- Abstract
The article presents a study on the pharmacokinetics of orally administered Phenobarbital in African grey parrots or Psittacus erithacus erithacus. It states that Phenobarbital is the most prescribed drug in small animal medicine because of its low cost, safety, and efficacy. Moreover, a comparative investigation of cytochrome P450 enzymes system in African grey parrots shows that cytochrome may help elucidate drug metabolism in the species.
