active ingredient:

Detomidine hydrochloride – 10 mg;

Pharmacological properties:

Detomidine hydrochloride is an a2-adrenoreceptor agonist. Equisetan causes suppression of the central nervous system and increases the pain threshold. The action of detomidine depends on the dose:
Small doses exhibit mild sedation without analgesia, while large doses cause significant sedation and analgesia. When administered intravenously, the drug acts faster, when administered intramuscularly, it acts slower.
The drug is quickly absorbed after intramuscular injection.
Maximum concentration in blood plasma is reached after 15-30 minutes. Detomidine is rapidly distributed in the body, its binding to plasma proteins is 85-90%, it is oxidized in the liver and partially metabolized in the kidneys.
Most of the drug metabolites are excreted with the urine. Half-life period is 1-2 hours.

 

Dosage:

Equisedan is administered intramuscularly or intravenously to horses. The degree of sedation can be regulated by adjusting the dose of the drug.
The drug is administered intravenously slowly (1 ml per minute) in the following doses:
