Greater a₂ selectivity and dosing flexibility Dormosedan

• • DORMOSEDAN Injectable allows dosing flexibility so you can accurately regulate the depth and length of sedation and analgesia
  • Simple dosing: 1 or 2 mL per 1,100 lbs horse IM or IV
  • Whether administered IV or IM, DORMOSEDAN produces rapid onset of effect (5 minutes for IV,10 to15 minutes for IM)
  • Xylazine can bind with a₁ and non-a₂ receptor sites, producing variable neurological effects⁴
  • DORMOSEDAN’s potency is 80 to 100 times greater than xylazine in sedation and analgesic effect⁵
  • Effects may be maintained up to 2 hours depending on dose level and route of administration, with analgesia being more pronounced following IV injection
  • Additional dosing prolongs not deepens sedation
  • Pfizer Animal Health does not recommend the use at higher than the approved label dosed
