Description
Phenylbutazone Product Overview
Phenylbutazone (C19H20N2O2) is a white crystalline powder that is practically insoluble in water. It also belongs to the pyrazolidinedione class of NSAIDs.
In addition, veterinary producers use it in tablets, oral pastes, granules and injections for horses, and in some products for dogs. Many countries have strongly restricted or withdrawn its use in humans because of side effects. Importantly, regulators do not permit phenylbutazone in food-producing animals in the EU, the United States and many other countries, and treated horses must stay out of the food chain.
Zyntex therefore supplies phenylbutazone only to licensed veterinary companies for products for non-food animals. Other veterinary APIs in our range also include Flunixin meglumine.
