Abstract
Two anaesthetic protocols were evaluated in dogs (n=20) to study anaesthetic
efficacy as well as to assess physiological and haemato-biochemical alterations. This
study involved two separate classes of drugs, tiletamine and zolazepam, however
absolutely available in combination for induction of anaesthesia. Tiletamine and
zolazepam (TZ) combination was used for induction of anaesthesia in both the groups
with and without xylazine premedication, and isoflurane was used for maintenance of
surgical anaesthesia.
