Using moxifloxacin and terfenadine, which are known to induce benign and malignant QT interval prolongation, respectively, we analysed whether halothane‐anaesthetizedmicrominipigsare an appropriate model for assessing the risk of drug‐induced long QT syndrome. Moxifloxacin (0.03, 0.3 and 3 mg/kg) and terfenadine (0.03, 0.3 and 3 mg/kg) were intravenously infused over 10 min. with a pause of 20 min. to the halothane‐anaesthetizedmicrominipigs(n = 4 for each drug). Moxifloxacin decreased the heart rate, whereas it increased the blood pressure in a dose‐related manner. It also prolonged the PR interval and QT/QTc in a dose‐related manner without altering the QRS width. Terfenadine decreased the heart rate and blood pressure, whereas it prolonged the PR interval, QRS width and QT/QTc in a dose‐related manner. Terfenadine significantly prolonged the beat‐to‐beat variability of QT interval reflecting its pro‐arrhythmic potential, which was not observed with moxifloxacin. The peak plasma concentrations of moxifloxacin and terfenadine after doses of 3 mg/kg were 4.81 and 10.15 μg/mL, respectively, which were both 1.5 times less inmicrominipigsthan those previously reported in dogs. These results indicate that halothane‐anaesthetizedmicrominipigswould be useful for detecting drug‐induced cardiovascular responses as well as differentiating benign from malignant QT interval prolongation like dogs, although there may be some differences in pharmacokinetic profile between these animals.
