USE OF METHYLNALTREXONE IN TREATING GASTROINTESTINAL DYSFUNCTION IN EQUINES

摘要

Systems and methods are described for using methylnaltrexone in treating inhibition of gastrointestinal motility in equines. A method for preventing and treating opioid-induced and non-opioid-induced gastrointestinal dysfunction includes administering a quaternary derivative of noroxymorphone to an equine before or after the onset of the gastrointestinal dysfunction.< /SDOAB>
