The only "teal" sounding one I can think of is thiopental which is a barbituate and dangerous. Get the actual name and I am sure you can find something on it.

Thanks. The vet tech actually told me that w/ this other one, the "teal" one, that they come off from the anesthetic easier, and that is a big reason as to why they use it. She said for longer surgeries, they can use the isoflourine. I wish I could remember the name! It was hard enough for me to remember "isoflourine", LOL
