Animal sedatives are medications or substances used to calm or relax animals, inducing a state of reduced anxiety, agitation, or excitement. These sedatives are commonly employed in veterinary medicine to facilitate various procedures or treatments that might otherwise cause stress or discomfort to the animal. Sedatives can help restrain animals for examinations, surgeries, grooming, transportation, or other situations where a relaxed state is necessary for the animal's well-being and the safety of the individuals handling them. Examples of sedatives are xylazine, Phenothiazines, detomidine, and romifidine. They are commonly used to facilitate short medical procedures. The medications are relatively short-acting and provide reliable sedation with some analgesia. The sedated animal is unaware of its surroundings, but the drugs do not prevent all reactions and can even increase such risk.
Phenothiazines (or neuroleptics) were originally developed and used as antipsychotic drugs for treating schizophrenia in humans, but these have been used in veterinary medicine as tranquilizers for over 50 years. Alpha-2 adrenergic receptor agonists are also frequently used in large and small animals; this class of drugs provides sedation, analgesia, and muscle relaxation. Xylazine is an example of an α2-adrenergic agonist that is widely used in veterinary medicine.
