Oral trazodone results in quantifiable sedation but does not result in a xylazine-sparing effect in healthy adult horses
Oral administration of LD trazodone may increase xylazine requirements. Further clinical studies are required to fully assess the clinical relevance of this finding on other parameters such as cardiovascular physiology.
