When Might Sedatives or Calming Medications be Needed & How They Work?
Dogs may need sedatives or calming medications during situations causing severe anxiety or stress.
This could be due to fear-based aggression, travel anxiety, loud noises, or safer, more positive veterinary and grooming procedures.
These medications affect neurotransmitters in the brain that can result in a calming effect. Depending on the situation and your dog's unique needs, a range of options are available including trazodone, gabapentin, acepromazine, alprazolam (Xanax), dexmedetomidine, and even naturally derived supplements such as melatonin.
These medications reduce anxiety, promote relaxation, and are most effective when part of a comprehensive treatment plan as recommended by your veterinarian.
