ID:	30627Virbac has introduced Buprevet®, a buprenorphine-based, injectable solution. It is indicated for the potentiation of sedative effects of centrally-acting agents in dogs and for use in cats and dogs as part of a multimodal approach to analgesia.

The launch of Buprevet® extends Virbac's well-established anaesthetic product range, which includes Medetor®, Revertor® and Vetflurane®. Its presentation in a 10 ml multi-dose bottle offers additional flexibility to practices; the vial can be broached up to 25 times and can be open for up to 28 days.

Sarah Walker MRCVS, Product Manager, said: "Buprenorphine is a potent, high affinity, synthetic opioid agonist which forms a key element of practice anaesthetic protocols and complements our existing anaesthetic range. Its potentiation effects means less sedation is needed in the pre-medication and in the anaesthesia, facilitating smoother recoveries with more comfortable patients.”

"Buprenorphine is a tried and trusted solution for analgesia in many practices. Buprevet® can be given pre-operatively to allow analgesia during and after surgery. It works effectively as part of a pre-emptive approach to analgesia, alongside products such as Inflacam® and Carprox® in our NSAIDs range.

"We are delighted to complement our anaesthetic and analgesia ranges with the addition of Buprevet®."
