CARDIORESPIRATORY EFFECTS OF MEDETOMIDINE-BUTORPHANOL, MEDETOMIDINE-BUTORPHANOL-DIAZEPAM, AND MEDETOMIDINE-BUTORPHANOL-KETAMINE IN CAPTIVE RED WOLVES (CANIS RUFUS) [PDF]
Safe, effective, and reversible immobilization protocols are essential for the management of free-ranging red wolves (Canis rufus). Combinations using an alpha2-adrenoceptor agonist and ketamine have been shown to be effective for immobilization but are not reversible and can produce severe hypertension and prolonged or rough recoveries.

Cardiopulmonary effects of medetomidine (20 micrograms/kg)-midazolam (0.3 mg) (Me-Mi) were compared with those of medetomidine alone (80 micrograms/kg) (Me80) in dogs. The intramuscular administration of this combination caused bradycardia and transient mild pressor response. Heart rate decreased soon after the administration and remained significantly
