Description
Reversible medetomidine sedative and analgesic

COMPOSITION
Medetomidine hydrochloride 1 mg/mL

ACTIONS
SedaMed Medetomidine Injection is a potent, selective and specific alpha-2 adrenoceptor agonist. Alpha-2 adrenoceptor activation by medetomidine induces a dose-dependent sedation, analgesia and bradycardia. During maximal effect the animal is relaxed, lies down and does not react to external stimuli.
Marked synergistic effects have been demonstrated between medetomidine and cyclohexamine compounds such as ketamine, and between medetomidine and opiate drugs such as fentanyl, producing deep anaesthesia. Similarly medetomidine has a very potent ability to reduce the dose requirements of volatile anaesthetics such as halothane.

INDICATIONS
Sedative and analgesic for use in the restraint of dogs for clinical examinations and procedures, minor surgery and pre-anaesthesia and sedative for restraint in cats.

PRESENTATION
10 mL multidose vial

STORAGE
Store below 25°C (Air Conditioning). Do not freeze. After withdrawal of the first dose, use remaining product within 3 months after opening.

NOTES
SEDAMED is a highly potent, reliable and reversible sedative and analgesic for use in dogs and cats that is wholly Australian made and very cost-effective.
