The route of administration of xylazine impacts the prolongation of local anesthesia in cattle
Xylazine prolongs the duration of lidocaine when administered as a distal paravertebral block in cattle. This study investigates if the observed effect is due to the perineural administration of xylazine with lidocaine or if it could be achieved by systemic administration of xylazine and perineural lidocaine.
