A profound lethargy and characteristic lowering of the head with reduced sensitivity to environmental stimuli (sounds, etc.) are seen with detomidine. A short period of in-coordination is characteristically followed by immobility and a firm stance with front legs spread. Following administration there is an initial increase in blood pressure, followed by ] and second degree ] (this is not ] in horses). The horse commonly ]s to excess, especially on the flanks and neck. Other side effects reported include pilo erection (hair standing erect), ], ], slight muscle tremors, and (rarely) penile prolapse.

The drug is normally administered by the ] route, and is fastest and most efficient when given intravenously (usually 2–5 minutes to take effect, although this is highly dependent upon the individual and the environment; some horses are highly resistant to sedation!). However, in recalcitrant animals, detomidine may be administered by the ] or ] routes. The dose range advised by the manufacturers is 20-40 mcg/kg intravenous for moderate sedation. This dose may need to be higher if given intramuscular.

The dose range advised by the manufacturers is 20–40&nbsp;μg/kg intravenous for moderate sedation, but this dose may need to be higher if given intramuscularly.

When given intravenously, detomidine usually takes effect in 2–5 minutes, and recovery is full within 30–60 minutes. However, this is highly dependent upon the dosage, environment, and the individual animal; some horses are highly resistant to sedation.

As detomidine is an ] agent, extreme care should be exercised in horses with cardiac disease, and in the concurrent administration of other arrhythmogenics. The concurrent use of potentiated ] ] is considered particularly dangerous.

Anesthetic recoveries in horses that have received ketamine following a detomidine premedication are often violent with the horse having multiple failures to stand resulting in trauma to itself. ] is a superior premedication with ketamine resulting in safer recoveries.
Detomidine is a poor premedication when using Ketamine as an anesthetic in horses.
