AVMA Continues Working to Protect Veterinary Access to Ketamine

The United Nations Commission on Narcotic Drugs (UN CND) has heard directly from the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) regarding the need to protect veterinary access to ketamine.

Ketamine hydrochloride is commonly used by veterinarians for immobilization, anesthesia, sedation and pain management of their animal patients.

The UN CND meets later this week and will consider a proposal for international scheduling of ketamine hydrochloride. Read AVMA post on this topic.
