Tranquilizing Drugs
Now Used for Dogs
A report in the Journal of the
American Veterinary Mejlical
Assn, describes how dogs react
to the tranquilizmg drugs now be
ing used effectively in human
medicine.
There" are three types ot these
drugs.
The Meprobamate drugs,-are
most useful in quieting barking
and whining dogs which get lone
some during their stay in the am
nia] hospital at must be confined
at home.
Phenythiozine derivatives calm
nervous dogs and make vicious
dogs easier to handle. They, also
reduce the amount of anesthetic
needed to deaden pain. The lower
level of anesthesia makes surgery
generally safer for older animals
which are usually the ones requir
ing surgical treatment.
The third group of drugs are
chiefly used to control convul
sions in both man and animals.
Tne tranquihzing drugs cannot
be considered as a replacement
lor kindness and gentleness in
treating animals, but they allow
the veterinarian to handle ani
mals with less use of restraining
devices.
