ADMINISTRATION AND DOSAGE
KETATHESIA is well tolerated by cats and subhuman primates when administered by intramuscular injection.
Fasting prior to induction of anesthesia or restraint with KETATHESIA is not essential; however, when preparing for elective surgery, it is advisable to withhold food for at least six hours prior to administration of KETATHESIA.
Anesthesia may be of shorter duration in immature cats. Restraint in subhuman primate neonates (less than 24 hours of age) is difficult to achieve.
As with other anesthetic agents, the individual response to KETATHESIA is somewhat varied depending upon the dose, general condition and age of the subject so that dosage recommendations cannot be absolutely fixed.
Dosage
Cats: A dose of 11 mg/kg (5 mg/lb) is recommended to produce restraint. Dosages from 22 to 33 mg/kg (10 to 15 mg/lb) produce anesthesia that is suitable for diagnostic or minor surgical procedures that do not require skeletal muscle relaxation.
Subhuman Primates:The recommended restraint dosages of KETATHESIA for the following species are: Cercocebus torquatus (white-collared mangabey), Papio cynocephalus (yellow baboon), Pantroglodytes verus (chimpanzee), Papio anubis (olive baboon), Pongo pygmaeus (orangutan), Macaca nemestrina (pig-tailed macaque) 5 to 7.5 mg/kg; Presbytis entellus (entellus langur) 3 to 5 mg/kg; Gorilla gorilla gorilla (gorilla) 7 to 10 mg/kg; Aotus trivirgatus (night monkey) 10 to 12 mg/kg; Macaca mulatta (rhesus monkey) 5 to 10 mg/kg; Cebus capucinus (white-throated capuchin) 13 to 15 mg/kg; and Macaca fascicularis (crab-eating macaque), Macaca radiata (bonnet macaque) and Saimiri sciureus (squirrel monkey) 12 to 15 mg/kg.A single intramuscular injection produces restraint suitable for TB testing, radiography, physical examination or blood collection.
