Bull Exp Biol Med. 2020 Dec;170(2):207-210. doi: 10.1007/s10517-020-05034-x. Epub 2020 Dec 2.

Abstract

We compared absolute bioavailability of the chemical substance of the anti-smallpox preparation NIOCH-14 and chemical compound ST-246 active against orthopoxviruses after oral administration to mice in doses of 10 and 50 μg/g and intravenous administration to mice in a dose of 2 μg/g body weight. The absolute bioavailability of NIOCH-14 is comparable with the absolute bioavailability of ST-246.

Keywords: anti-smallpox preparations; bioavailability; mice; pharmacokinetics.
