Abstract
Chlorpromazine hydrochloride @ 2 mg/kg intramuscularly, produced satis factory sedation and relative immobilization in camels lasting up to 1 45 +/- 9.32 min. Haematology and blood biochemistry revealed no change in haemoglobin, PCV, TEC, DLC, ESR, plasma sodium, potassium chloride . calcium, magnesium, inorganic phosphorus, blood glucose, blood urea nitrogen, GOT, GPT, LDH and alkaline phosphatase. Respiratory rate and rectal temperature also remained unaffected at different recording in tervals though the heart rate was raised significantly.
