Injectable dexmedetomidine (DM) is widely used for sedation, restraint, anxiolysis, and analgesia in veterinary medicine. Oral transmucosal dexmedetomidine (OTM DM) has been evaluated in horses, cats, and humans, but not in dogs. In this case series, OTM DM (mean dose of 32.6 μg/kg body weight) was given in the buccal pouch to 4 aggressive dogs in a hospital setting. Two of the dogs were subsequently euthanized, and in the other 2, sedation was reversed with atipamezole. Satisfactory sedation was achieved in all cases.
注射用右美托咪定(DM)在兽医学中广泛用于镇静、约束、抗焦虑和镇痛。口腔黏膜用右美托咪定(OTM DM)已在马、猫和人类中进行了评估,但尚未在犬类中进行评估。在本病例系列中,在医院环境下,将OTM DM(平均剂量为32.6μg/kg体重)给予4只攻击性犬的颊囊。其中2只犬随后实施安乐死,另外2只犬用阿替美唑逆转镇静作用。所有病例均实现了满意的镇静效果。
