Evaluation of analgesic drug combinations

  • Chapter
Veterinary Pharmacology and Toxicology

Abstract

The experimental pharmacological assessment of the therapeutic value of a single drug for a well-defined indication often requires more than one animal model. The evaluation of drug combinations is even more complicated, because it necessitates a quantification of effects, which implies the assessment of dose-response relationships of the individual components of the combination and the efficacy of the combination itself for a specified effect.
