Butorphanol (10 mg/mL Injection)
Trusted Pain Relief and Sedation Support for Dogs
Managing pain effectively is essential to improving your dog’s comfort, recovery, and overall well-being. Butorphanol is a veterinarian-prescribed injectable medication known for its dual role in pain relief and sedation, making it a valuable tool in veterinary care.
🔬 How Butorphanol Works
Butorphanol is a synthetic opioid analgesic with both agonist and antagonist activity. It binds to specific opioid receptors in the central nervous system to suppress pain perception and enhance sedation, while also reducing the risk of respiratory depression often associated with other opioids.
