“…Furthermore, in a recent study by Hector et al (2017), vatinoxan unexpectedly increased the minimum alveolar concentration (MAC) of sevoflurane in dogs, an effect speculated to be related to possible CNS penetration by the drug. More recently, similar findings were also reported in cats (Pypendop et al 2019). As the beneficial effects of α 2-adrenoceptor agonists, namely sedation, antinociception and anaesthetic-sparing are mediated at the level of the CNS (Doze et al 1989;Guo et al 1996;Kita et al 2000), significant distribution of vatinoxan across the canine blood-brain barrier would potentially decrease its clinical appeal.…”

“…In cats anesthetized with isoflurane and a constant rate infusion of dexmedetomidine, vatinoxan administration resulted in a higher MAC value than a control group receiving saline instead of vatinoxan (Pypendop et al 2019). This raises questions regarding the drug's capability to cross the blood-brain-barrier in domestic species, requiring further pharmacokinetic studies to determine its concentration in plasma and CNS.…”

“…Dexmedetomidine (Dexmedesed; Dechra Veterinary Products LLC, KS, USA) was diluted to 0.1 mg mL −1 using sterile 0.9% saline. Vatinoxan and dexmedetomidine were administered by target-controlled infusion as previously described, using previously published pharmacokinetic data obtained in anesthetized cats (Pypendop et al 2019(Pypendop et al , 2020a. The vatinoxan target plasma concentration (TPC) was 1 µg mL −1 and remained constant throughout the study.…”

“…MACISO was determined at each condition (BL, Vat, Vat/Dex5, Vat/Dex10, Vat/Dex20) in each cat during the first treatment (dopamine, phenylephrine or norepinephrine) of the study, according to previously published methods (Pypendop et al 2019). A single MACISO determination was performed for each condition.…”
