Horses: XylaMed has been used successfully as follows: 1. Diagnostic procedures-oral and ophthalmic examinations, abdominal palpation, rectal palpation, vaginal examination, catheterization of      the bladder and radiographic examinations. 2. Orthopedic procedures, such as application of casting materials and splints. 3. Dental procedures. 4. Minor surgical procedures of short duration such as debridement, removal of cutaneous neoplasms and suturing of lacerations. 5. To calm and facilitate handling of fractious animals. 6. Therapeutic medication for sedation and relief of pain following injury or surgery. 7. Major surgical procedures:    a. When used as a preanesthetic to general anesthesia.    b. When used in conjunction with local anesthetics. Cervidae: XylaMed (xylazine injection) may be used for the following: 1. To calm and facilitate handling of fractious animals. 2. Diagnostic procedures. 3. Minor surgical procedures. 4. Therapeutic medication for sedation and relief of pain following injury or surgery. 5. As a preanesthetic to local anesthesia.

PHARMACOLOGY: XylaMed a non-narcotic compound, is a sedative and
analgesic as
well as muscle relaxant. Its sedative and analgesic activity is
related to central nervous
system depression. Its muscle-relaxant effect is based on inhibition
of the intraneural
transmission of impulses in the central nervous system. The principal
pharmacological
activities develop within 10 to 15 minutes after intramuscular
injection, and within 3 to 5
minutes following intravenous administration in horses.
A sleeplike state, the depth of which is dose-dependent, is usually
maintained for 1 to 2
hours, while analgesia lasts from 15 to 30 minutes. The
centrally-acting muscle relaxant
effect causes relaxation of the skeletal musculature, complementing
sedation and
analgesia.
In horses and _Cervidae_ under the influence of XylaMed the
respiratory rate is reduced as
in natural sleep. Following treatment with XylaMed the heart rate is
decreased and a
transient change in the conductivity of the cardiac muscle may occur,
as evidenced by a
partial atrioventricular block. This resembles the atrioventricular
block often observed in
normal horses.
Although a partial A-V block may occasi
