The bradycardia isn’t from alpha 2 agonism.

[@BarrelCollective]

Is the bradycardia caused by baroreceptor activation/HTN that maintains with higher doses?

[@hasitagoda3989]

Can it be used in paediatric patients for day care procedures or to supplement during regional techniques

I don’t really understand if this could theoretically be used as an actual general anesthetic? I know that it’s not used as such yet but I’m just curious to know if it theoretically could be possible? or if it’s too weak to produce Anesthesia or something else contraindicates this use?

I really wish vet would give more "full disclosure" regarding their use of buprenorphine with dex-medetomidine for short-term "sedation"....they said they would administer a reversing agent (for the Presidex) but the buprenorphine was not reversed (and really can't be) and b/c of the 22 hour half-life...it took our dog around 4-5 days to recover from a simple X-ray procedure. This is the danger when drug companies start pushing drugs to vets, who themselves don't really understand just what they are handling. I guess Vets don't want to handle the short-acting narcotics these days. Our other dogs recovered within hours after these kinds of procedures in the past. So the medetomidine was "controllable" but the buprenorphine they use in combo screwed things up. Ask questions people when you go to the vet and get clear answers.
