VIVIRAM-V is an analeptic medication used as an anesthetic reverser, stimulant for respiratory depression and aid in post-anesthetic recovery in dogs and cats.
VIVIRAM-V promotes rapid awakening and return to normal oxygenation after general anesthesia, accelerating recovery and preventing post-anesthetic respiratory depression.
Acting selectively, it stimulates the respiratory centers safely and without risk, at a lower dose than those needed to stimulate the cortex. It has an excellent action to initiate or stimulate breathing in newborns, without causing undesirable effects.
In dogs and cats with respiratory depression caused by barbiturates, xylazine, buprenorphine and inhaled agents, it accelerates post-anesthetic recovery.
