Phenylbutazone (PBl) is the most commonly used non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAlDs) in equine. Despite its beneficial effects, its misuse can result in deleterious findings including gastric and colonic ulceration and renal failure. The present study describes the lesions, hematological findings and biochemical profile in draft horses suffering orthopedic diseases and injected with PBl. Fifty-five native breed draft horses of both sexes (forty diseased and fifteen control) were clinically investigated during the period from October 2006 to December 2008. The treated horses were categorized into survivors gp.1 and nonsurvivors gp.2. Anemia, increased ALT, AST, urea and creatinine levels were noticed in both groups. The oxidative stress markers showed significantly elevated MDA and NO. Meanwhile, the GSH and SOD levels were significantly decreased.
