They could be an they will be anesthetized for the procedure. Please talk to your vet about it beforehand and make sure he is aware of the recall. | |

| Ketamine is very commonly used as an induction drug during anesthesia so you really want to make sure he's checked his inventory for recalled drugs. |

| My Veterinarian called back and said they do use a form of Butorphanol when they clean teeth!!!! She (They) had NOT heard about a RECALL, but they can just use gas. I am printing the list and taking it with me to show them. Thanks again for this warning!

| yes I agree! I think some Drs. get caught up in their "day-to-day routine" stuff and don't make it a point to keep things up-to-date!! Maybe I'm putting a stop to that, at my Vet! lol Hope so! I'll keep after them.
