Introduction:Basic information about CAS 90038-01-0|Detomidine hydrochloride, including its chemical name, molecular formula, synonyms, physicochemical properties, and safety information, etc.
Detomidine hydrochloride produce dose-dependent sedative and analgesic effects, is a nonnarcotic, synthetic α2-adrenergic agonistTarget: α2-adrenergic agonistDetomidine is an imidazole derivative and α2-adrenergic agonist, used as a large animal sedative, primarily used in horses. It is usually available as the salt detomidine hydrochloride. It is a prescription medication available to veterinarians sold under the trade name Dormosedan. Currently, detomidine is only licenced for use in horses.Detomidine is a sedative with analgesic properties. α2-adrenergic agonists produce dose-dependent sedative and analgesic effects, mediatated by activation of α2 catecholamine receptors, thus inducing a negative feedback response, reducing production of excitatory neurotransmitters. Due to inhibition of the sympathetic nervous system, detomidine also has cardiac and respiratory effects and an antidiuretic action.
