1. Estudo comparativo do uso de Medetomidina e Xilazina em gatos e sua reversão com Atipamezole / Comparative study of the use of Medetomidine and Xilazine in cats and its reversion with Atipamezole
The medetomidine is sedative and analgesic of the group of the a2 adrenergic agonist approved for dogs and cats, described now as more potent than the xylazine, an old agonist a2 adrenergic of veterinary use. The main difference among those two agonists is the selectivity to the receptors a2-adrenergics, being the medetomidine considered more selective, chec

2. Neurohormonal and metabolic effects of medetomidine compared with xylazine in beagle dogs
This study was aimed to investigate and compare the effects of medetomidine and xylazine on the blood level of some stress-related neurohormonal and metabolic variables in clinically normal dogs, especially focusing on time and dose relations of the effects. A total of 9 beagle dogs were used for 9 groups, which were treated with physiological saline solutio

3. A review of the physiological effects of α2-agonists related to the clinical use of medetomidine in small animal practice
Medetomidine is a relatively new sedative analgesic drug that is approved for use in dogs in Canada. It is the most potent α2-adrenoreceptor available for clinical use in veterinary medicine and stimulates receptors centrally to produce dose-dependent sedation and analgesia. Significant dose sparing properties occur when medetomidine is combined with other

4. The antagonistic effects of atipamezole and yohimbine on stress-related neurohormonal and metabolic responses induced by medetomidine in dogs
This study aimed to compare the antagonistic effects of atipamezole (40, 120, and 320 μg/kg, IM), yohimbine (110 μg/kg, IM), and saline on neurohormonal and metabolic responses induced by medetomidine (20 μg/kg, IM). Five beagle dogs were used in each of the 5 experimental groups in randomized order. Blood samples were taken for 6 h. Medetomidine signific

5. Comparison of medetomidine-ketamine and dexmedetomidine-ketamine anesthesia in golden-headed lion tamarins
The cardiovascular, respiratory, and anesthetic effects of medetomidine-ketamine (20 μg/kg bodyweight [BW] and 10 mg/kg BW) (MK group) or dexmedetomidine-ketamine (10 μg/kg BW and 10 mg/kg BW) (DK group) were studied in golden-headed lion tamarins. Heart rate decreased after administration of both combinations; this reduction was statistically greater in t
