Bioactivity Detomidine hydrochloride, an imidazole derivative, is a potent α2-adrenergic agonist. Detomidine hydrochloride produces dose-dependent analgesic effects[1][2].
Invitro Currently, detomidine is only licenced for use in horses. α2-adrenergic agonists produce dose-dependent 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.
