Companion Animal Euthanasia Training Academy
Companion Animal Euthanasia Training Academy Oral and Injectable Pre-Euthanasia Sedatives/Anesthetics for Dogs and Cats Compiled in 2017 by Dr. Kathleen Cooney, U.S. CAETA instructor Disclaimer: These protocols are meant to provide options for sedation or anesthesia, ranging from mild to deep planes of sleep. Intraorgan injections are only permissible during periods of heavy sedation or anesthesia wherein the animal is pain-free and unaware the injection is occurring. When in doubt, CAETA recommends more drug be given to ensure a pain-free death. Giving sedative or anesthetic drugs to frail and compromised animals can result in adverse reactions or death itself. Drug and drug combinations can be administered intramuscular(IM) or subcutaneous (SQ) unless otherwise specified. Oral drugs may not elicite the desired depth of sleep every time. Many factors affect rate of absorption and uptake. Higher doses may be given initially or when it becomes clear the pet requires more. Dr. Cooney’s Injectable Protocols (IM and SQ) Dogs Sedation protocol (SQ preferred) • Dexmedetomidine (0.5mg/ml) = 0.1 ml per 10# minus 0.1ml (can decrease total by 0.2mls over 50# bw) [can substitute with Xylazine (100mg/ml) = 0.1ml per 10#] • Nalbuphine (20mg/ml) = 0.1 ml per 10# or Butorphanol (10mg/ml) = 0.1 ml per 10# • Acepromazine (10mg/ml) = 0.05 ml per 10# Anesthesia protocol • Telazol® (100mg/ml) = 0.1 ml per 10# • Acepromazine (10mg/ml) = 0.1 ml per 10# • Xylazine (100mg/ml) = 0.025 ml per 10# Cats Anesthesia protocol • Telazol®* (100mg/ml) = 0.15 ml for 2-5# 0.25 ml for 5-10# 0.3 ml for 10+# • Acepromazine (10mg/ml) = 0.1 ml for all BW Anesthesia protocol • Alfaxalone (10mg/ml) = 1.1 -1.5ml for most cats • Nalbuphine (20mg/ml) = 0.2ml for all BW • Acepromazine (10mg/ml)=0.1ml for all BW BW = body weight # = pounds mg = milligram ml = milliliter Various Other Injectable Protocols Shared by Veterinary Colleagues, compiled in 2016 Dogs 1.

Crystal Structure of Dopamine D1 Receptor in Complex with G Protein and a Non-Catechol Agonist

Sands2,6, Sebastian Kelm 3, Anne Valade2, Martyn Wood2, Tom Ceska 3, Tong Sun Kobilka1, Florence Lebon4 & ✉ Brian K. Kobilka 1,5 Dopamine D1 receptor (D1R) is an important drug target implicated in many psychiatric and 1234567890():,; neurological disorders. Selective agonism of D1R are sought to be the therapeutic strategy for these disorders. Most selective D1R agonists share a dopamine-like catechol moiety in their molecular structure, and their therapeutic potential is therefore limited by poor pharmaco- logical properties in vivo. Recently, a class of non-catechol D1R selective agonists with a distinct scaffold and pharmacological properties were reported. Here, we report the crystal structure of D1R in complex with stimulatory G protein (Gs) and a non-catechol agonist Compound 1 at 3.8 Å resolution. The structure reveals the ligand bound to D1R in an extended conformation, spanning from the orthosteric site to extracellular loop 2 (ECL2). Structural analysis reveals that the unique features of D1R ligand binding pocket explains the remarkable selectivity of this scaffold for D1R over other aminergic receptors, and sheds light on the mechanism for D1R activation by the non-catechol agonist. 1 ConfometRx, Inc., Santa Clara, CA, USA. 2 UCB Pharma, Braine-l’Alleud, Belgium. 3 UCB Pharma, Slough, UK. 4 UCB Pharma, Anderlecht, Belgium. 5 Department of Molecular and Cellular Physiology, Stanford University School of Medicine, Stanford, CA, USA.

Kentucky Horse Racing Commission Withdrawal Guidelines Thoroughbred; Standardbred; Quarter Horse, Appaloosa, and Arabian KHRC 8-020-2 (11/2018) General Notice Unless otherwise specified in these withdrawal guidelines or the applicable regulations and statutes, the following withdrawal guidelines are voluntary and advisory. The guidelines are recommendations based on current scientific knowledge that may change over time. A licensee may present evidence of full compliance with these guidelines to the Kentucky Horse Racing Commission (the “Commission” or “KHRC”) and the stewards as a mitigating factor to be used in determining violations and penalties. These withdrawal interval guidelines assume that administration of medications will be performed at doses that are not greater than the manufacturer’s maximum recommended dosage. Medications administered at dosages above manufacturer’s recommendations, in compounded formulations and/or in combination with other medications and/or administration inside the withdrawal interval may result in test sample concentrations above threshold concentrations that could lead to positive test results and the imposition of penalties. The time of administration of an orally administered substance, for the purposes of withdrawal interval, shall be considered to be the time of complete ingestion of the medication by the horse via eating or drinking. Brand names of medications, where applicable, are listed in parentheses or brackets following the generic name of a drug. In addition to the requirements contained in KRS Chapter 13A, the KHRC shall give notice of an amendment or addition to these withdrawal guidelines by posting the change on the KHRC website and at all Kentucky racetracks at least two weeks before the amendment or addition takes legal effect.

Adrenoceptors Regulating Cholinergic Activity in the Guinea-Pig Ileum 1978) G.M
- + ! ,' Br. J. Pharmac. (1978), 64, 293-300. F'(O t.,," e reab- ,ellular PHARMACOLOGICAL CHARACTERIZATION OF THE PRESYNAPTIC _-ADRENOCEPTORS REGULATING CHOLINERGIC ACTIVITY IN THE GUINEA-PIG ILEUM 1978) G.M. Departmentof Pharmacology,Allen and HzmburysResearchLimited, Ware, Hertfordshire,SG12 ODJ I The presynaptic ct-adrenoceptors located on the terminals of the cholinergic nerves of the guinea- pig myenteric plexus have been characterized according to their sensitivities to at-adrenoceptor agonists and antagonists. 2 Electrical stimulation of the cholinergic nerves supplying the longitudinal muscle of the guinea-pig ! ileum caused a twitch response. Clonidine caused a concentration-dependent inhibition of the twitch i response; the maximum inhibition obtained was 80 to 95_o of the twitch response. Oxymetazoline and xylazine were qualitatively similar to clonidine but were about 5 times less potent. Phenylephrine and methoxamine also inhibited the twitch response but were at least 10,000 times less potent than clonidine. 3 The twitch-inhibitory effects of clonidine, oxymetazoline and xylazine, but not those of phenyl- ephrine or methoxamine, were reversed by piperoxan (0.3 to 1.0 lag/ml). 4 Lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD) inhibited the twitch response, but also increased the basal tone of the ileum. Mepyramine prevented the increase in tone but did not affect the inhibitory action of LSD. Piperoxan or phentolamine only partially antagonized the inhibitory effect of LSD. 5 Phentolamine, yohimbine, piperoxan and tolazoline were potent, competitive antagonists of the inhibitory effect of clonidine with pA2 values of 8.51, 7.78, 7.64 and 6.57 respectively. 6 Thymoxamine was a weak antagonist of clonidine; it also antagonized the twitch-inhibitory effect of morphine.

Low Doses of A2-Adrenoceptor Antagonists Augment Spinal Morphine Analgesia and Inhibit Development of Acute and Chronic Tolerance
British Journal of Pharmacology (2008) 155, 1264–1278 & 2008 Macmillan Publishers Limited All rights reserved 0007– 1188/08 $32.00 www.brjpharmacol.org RESEARCH PAPER Low doses of a2-adrenoceptor antagonists augment spinal morphine analgesia and inhibit development of acute and chronic tolerance B Milne, M Sutak, CM Cahill and K Jhamandas Department of Pharmacology and Toxicology, and Department of Anesthesiology, Queen’s University, Kingston, Ontario, Canada Background and purpose: Ultra-low doses of opioid receptor antagonists augment spinal morphine antinociception and block the induction of tolerance. Considering the evidence demonstrating functional and physical interactions between the opioid and a2-adrenoceptors, this study investigated whether ultra-low doses of a2-adrenoceptor antagonists also influence spinal morphine analgesia and tolerance. Experimental approach: Effects of low doses of the competitive a2-adrenoceptor antagonists—atipamezole (0.08, 0.8 ng), yohimbine (0.02, 2 ng), mirtazapine (0.02 ng) and idazoxan (0.08 ng) were investigated on intrathecal morphine analgesia, as well as acute and chronic morphine antinociceptive tolerance using the rat tail flick and paw pressure tests. Key results: At doses markedly lower than those producing a2-adrenoceptor blockade, atipamezole, yohimbine, mirtazapine and idazoxan, prolonged the antinociceptive effects of morphine. When co-administered with repeated acute spinal injections of morphine, all four agents blocked the induction of acute tolerance. Co-injection of atipamezole with morphine for 5 days inhibited the development of tolerance in a chronic treatment paradigm. Spinal administration of atipamezole also reversed established antinociceptive tolerance to morphine as indicated by the restoration of morphine antinociceptive potency. The effects of atipamezole on spinal morphine tolerance were not influenced by treatment with 6-hydroxydopamine.

E.C.Z.M., Joanne Dodds, V.N., Karla Berry, V.N., Abdi Arif, M.V.Sc., Polly Taylor, Vet. M. B., Ph. D., Dip. E.C.V.A.A., Andrew Routh, B. V. Sc., Cert. Zoo. Med., and Frank Gasthuys, D.V.M., Ph. D., Dip. E.C.V.A.A. Abstract: General anesthesia poses risks for larger zoo species, like cardiorespiratory depression, myopathy, and hyperthermia. In ruminants, ruminal bloat and regurgitation of rumen contents with potential aspiration pneumonia are added risks. Thus, the use of sedation to perform minor procedures is justiﬁed in zoo animals. A combination of detomidine and butorphanol has been routinely used in domestic animals. This drug combination, administered by remote intramuscular injection, can also be applied for standing sedation in a range of zoo animals, allowing a number of minor procedures. The combination was successfully administered in ﬁve species of nondomesticated equids (Przewalski horse [Equus ferus przewalskii; n ¼ 1], onager [Equus hemionus onager; n ¼ 4], kiang [Equus kiang; n ¼ 3], Grevy’s zebra [Equus grevyi; n ¼ 4], and Somali wild ass [Equus africanus somaliensis; n ¼ 7]), with a mean dose range of 0.10–0.17 mg/kg detomidine and 0.07–0.13 mg/kg butorphanol; the white (Ceratotherium simum simum; n ¼ 12) and greater one-horned rhinoceros (Rhinoceros unicornis; n ¼ 4), with a mean dose of 0.015 mg/kg of both detomidine and butorphanol; and Asiatic elephant bulls (Elephas maximus; n ¼ 2), with a mean dose of 0.018 mg/kg of both detomidine and butorphanol.
