Description of Xylazine Hydrochloride(Powder)
1.Xylazine/Xylazina Hydrochloride
is α2 class of adrenergic receptor agonist.
Target: Adrenergic ReceptorXylazine is a drug that is used for sedation, anesthesia, muscle relaxation, and analgesia in animals such as horses, cattle and other non-human mammals.
An analogue of clonidine, it is an agonist at the α2 class of adrenergic receptor.
2.Xylazine/Zylazine/Zylazina hcl
has recently emerged as a recreational drug, especially in Puerto Rico . Administration of xylazine
(0.17 mg/kg of body weight, diluted to a 10-ml volume, using 0.9% NaCl)
induced approximately 2.5 hours of local analgesia without apparent side effects.
3.
Higher doses of
xylazine/xilazine/xilazina/xilacina
caused mild hind limb ataxia. Administration of lidocain induced a similar duration of analgesia, with severe hind limb ataxia (100% incidence). We concluded that xylazine given by epidural injection results in safe, effective perineal analgesia in
horses.
