Question: 1 / 400

Diprenorphine is specifically used for which type of animals?

Companion animals

Domestic animals

Exotic/zoo animals

Diprenorphine is specifically used for exotic or zoo animals. It is a potent opioid antagonist most commonly utilized in veterinary medicine, particularly for reversing the effects of anesthetic agents used in large and exotic animals such as elephants and rhinoceroses. Its use in these contexts is due to the unique pharmacological requirements and challenges posed by managing sedation and anesthesia in such large species.

While it can theoretically have roles in various animal categories, it is not typically used in companion animals, domestic animals, or farm animals, which often require different types of sedatives or anesthetics and corresponding reversal agents. Thus, the designation of diprenorphine specifically for exotic or zoo animals aligns with its practical application in veterinary care.
