Allevinix

**Allevinix** is a veterinary brand name for a 50 mg/ml flunixin meglumine solution for injection, authorized for use in cattle, pigs, and horses primarily in the UK and EU. As a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), it inhibits cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes to reduce prostaglandin synthesis, thereby alleviating inflammation, pain, and fever. It is indicated for conditions such as respiratory disease (with anti-infective therapy), mastitis, lameness, musculo-skeletal disorders, visceral pain like colic, post-partum issues, gastro-intestinal disorders, and post-dehorning pain. Developed and marketed by Ceva Sante Animale as a generic application, it offers flexible intramuscular (IM) or intravenous (IV) administration, fast onset (peak plasma in ~30 minutes post-IM), and short withdrawal periods (e.g., 24-36 hours for milk in cattle).
