  • CPX, ciclopirox; CPX-G, ciclopirox glucuronide metabolite; CPX-O, ciclopirox olamine; CPX-POM, fosciclopirox; dXe/dtCPX, mass of CPX excreted per hour over × hours following drug administration; FeCPX, fraction of the administered dose excreted as CPX; FECPX-G, fraction of the administered dose excreted as CPX-G; UCPX, urine CPX concentration; XECPX, mass of CPX excreted in urine.

  • a N = 4 dogs who received all three treatments in a nonrandomized, complete crossover fashion.

  • b Ciclopirox free acid dose.

  • c CPX-POM disodium heptahydrate was formulated in 25 mM phosphate buffer pH 7 with 50 mM Captisol at a strength of 3.53 mg/ml (1.50 mg/ml ciclopirox free acid), CPX-O was formulated in 25 mM phosphate buffer pH 7 with 50 mM Captisol at a strength of 1.94 mg/ml (1.50 mg/ml ciclopirox free acid).
