Abstract
The post operative analgesic and sedative effects of flunixin (1 mgkg bwt) iv were investigated for the first 90 min post surgery in 20 cats undergoing a variety of surgical procedures. The results were compared with those obtained in another 20 cats, subjected to similar anaesthetic and surgical procedures, but treated with pethidine, 3 mgkg bwt iv. Post operatively, the analgesic effect of flunixin was shown to be adequate and its administration safe, so that it may reasonably be included among possible post operative analgesic treatments of choice in cats.
