Vet Q & A

What is ketamine used for in horses? Is a vet needed or can I buy it?

Hello, & thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. Ketamine is a sedative, used primarily in horses & small animals for anesthesia. I know the rules about controlled drugs are pretty lax in SA, so all you can do is ask. If you develop any type of relationship with a veterinarian in your area, they are more apt to help someone out than a complete stranger. Laws about controlled drugs are changing rapidly in the region.
