Detomidine was administered twice to six foals (14 to 94 days old) using three different doses (10, 20 and 40 micrograms/kg bodyweight intravenously) in a double blind trial. Sedation, analgesia, heart rate and clinically observed side-effects were recorded. Detomidine showed strong sedative effects at all doses tested. Sedation deepened very little by increasing the dose from 10 to 40 micrograms/kg bodyweight, but the duration of the effect was longer. Analgesia was considered good with the largest dose (40 micrograms/kg), and moderate or non-existent with the lower doses. Detomidine caused a decrease in heart rate at all doses and other observed side-effects included ataxia, heavy breathing, arrhythmia, sweating and frequent urination. No adverse effects were observed.
