The effect of certain drugs on the clinical, biochemical, hormonal and other changes induced by various stressful stimuli in farm animals is summarized in this review article. The drugs used include: sedatives that are adrenergic agonists and antagonists (such as xylazine, prazosin and acepromazine), dopamine, benzodiazepines (such as diazepam), opioid agonists (such as morphine), central nervous depressants (such as barbiturates), drugs with hormonal effects (such as metyrapone) and dietary substances (such as magnesium aspartate, tyrosine and ascorbic acid). From a welfare point of view, the use of vitamins, amino acids and other dietary substances may provide a less expensive alternative to other antistress drugs.
