Description

Meditin is prescribed to sports horses, dogs and cats for sedation and analgesia during surgical operations, various types of clinical studies, as well as before injection and (or) inhalation anesthesia. Meditin belongs to the α2-agonist group of drugs. Medetomidine – the active ingredient Meditin – refers to α2-adrenergic receptor stimulants, the mechanism of action of which is to inhibit the transmission of nerve impulses due to competition with norepinephrine. It causes depression of the central nervous system and an increase in pain threshold. The action of medetomidine is dose-dependent: small doses have a moderate sedative effect without analgesia, while large doses cause a significant sedative and analgesic effect.

The drug has a faster effect when administered intravenously, slower – with intramuscular and subcutaneous. After intramuscular administration, the maximum concentration of medetomidine in the blood is reached after 15-30 minutes. Medetomidine is rapidly distributed in the body. Serum protein binding is 85 – 90%.

Medetomidine is oxidized in the liver, a small part is methylated in the kidneys. Most of the metabolites of the drug are excreted in the urine. The half-life is 1 – 2 hours. It is forbidden to use the drug in animals with increased individual sensitivity to the components of the drug, severe cardiovascular diseases and diseases of the respiratory system, impaired liver or kidney function, damage to the gastrointestinal tract (gastric volvulus, infringement of organs, obstruction of the esophagus), diabetes mellitus, increased intraocular pressure.
