This is owing to several factors. Cats with analgesia. It takes at least 6 hours to achieve adequate fentanyl pancreatitis present with vague signs of illness, including lethargy, levels for pain control; therefore, one recommended protocol is to decreased appetite, dehydration, and weight loss. Physical administer another analgesic, such as intravenous buprenorphine, examination and routine laboratory findings are nonspecific, and at the time the fentanyl patch is placed. The cat is then monitored until recently, there have been limited diagnostic tools available closely to see if additional pain medication is required. Cats with to the practitioner for noninvasively diagnosing pancreatitis. As a chronic pancreatitis may also benefit from pain management, and consequence of the difficulty in diagnosing the disease, therapy options for outpatient treatment include a fentanyl patch, sublingual options are not well understood. buprenorphine, oral butorphanol, or tramadol.

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. -
The Vomiting Center and the Chemoreceptor Trigger Zone
Pharmacologic Control of Vomiting Todd R. Tams, DVM, Dipl. ACVIM VCA West Los Angeles Animal Hospital Pharmacologic Control of Acute Vomiting Initial nonspecific management of vomiting includes NPO (in minor cases a 6-12 hour period of nothing per os may be all that is required), fluid support, and antiemetics. Initial feeding includes small portions of a low fat, single source protein diet starting 6-12 hours after vomiting has ceased. Drugs used to control vomiting will be discussed here. The most effective antiemetics are those that act at both the vomiting center and the chemoreceptor trigger zone. Vomiting is a protective reflex and when it occurs only occasionally treatment is not generally required. However, patients that continue to vomit should be given antiemetics to help reduce fluid loss, pain and discomfort. For many years I strongly favored chlorpromazine (Thorazine), a phenothiazine drug, as the first choice for pharmacologic control of vomiting in most cases. The HT-3 receptor antagonists ondansetron (Zofran) and dolasetron (Anzemet) have also been highly effective antiemetic drugs for a variety of causes of vomiting. Metoclopramide (Reglan) is a reasonably good central antiemetic drug for dogs but not for cats. Maropitant (Cerenia) is a superior broad spectrum antiemetic drug and is now recognized as an excellent first choice for control of vomiting in dogs. Studies and clinical experience have now also shown maropitant to be an effective and safe antiemetic drug for cats. While it is labeled only for dogs, clinical experience has shown it is safe to use the drug in cats as well. Maropitant is also the first choice for prevention of motion sickness vomiting in both dogs and cats. -
Kentucky Horse Racing Commission Withdrawal Guidelines Thoroughbred; Standardbred; Quarter Horse, Appaloosa, and Arabian KHRC 8-020-2 (11/2018)
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. -
