Abstract
DEXMEDITOMIDINE is D-enantiomer of 4(5)- 1-2-3-dimethyl phenyl imidazole. It is full agonist at alpha 2c and partial at alpha 2a and 2b receptor. DEXMEDITOMIDINE is a highly selective alpha 2 agonist compared to clonidine with property of sedation, hypnosis, analgesia, sympatholytic and anxiolytic properties, making it an ideal anaesthetic adjuvant. Dexmedetomidine can also be used as anti-shivering agent.
