In rare instances in horses, fatal or nonfatal clostridial infections or other infections have been reported in association with intramuscular use of flunixin meglumine. Flunixin accumulates in damaged tissue and is slowly released from that tissue into the systemic circulation, which results in extended retention of the drug in the body15,36 and possible violative residues in tissues used for human consumption.
