SED-Ace Oral Gel is orally administered acepromazine maleate to provide a dose-dependent tranquiliser, relaxant and sedative effects in horses. It provides a safe, convenient and effective method of tranquilising and sedating horses. Acepromazine maleate mediates hypotensive, hypothermic and antispasmodic actions. It has little, if any, analgesic effect, so that painful procedures must be avoided unless accompanied by an analgesic, particularly where animals are known to have unpredictable temperaments.
Tranquilising Action – Low doses of oral acepromazine maleate promote a mild tranquilising effect, useful as an aid in quietening excitable, nervous and hard-to-handle horses. It can provide a beneficial “calming” effect during handling, training, transport and confinement. It reduces excitability, whilst retaining co-ordination and awareness of environment.
