The effect of MK ‐467, a peripheral α2‐adrenoceptor antagonist, on dexmedetomidine‐induced sedation and bradycardia after intravenous administration in conscious cats
Conclusions and clinical relevanceMK‐467 dose‐dependently attenuated the bradycardia associated with dexmedetomidine, and shortened the sedative effect without altering its quality. MK‐467 may be useful in attenuating reductions in HR in conscious cats administered dexmedetomidine.
