Varga, Ketamine/medetomidine/butorphanol is the suggested combo for induction! It mentions lots of other different combinations that may be appropriate, including alfaxalone (can be used with buprenorphine premed and of course isoflo maintenance!). Maybe see if you can source it and have a little look.</p> <p>Don&#39;t have much experience with it though, but I hope this info helps.&nbsp;</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
