Provinces, Korea [R.]. The more the dose of xylazine, the earlier the onset of sedation, and the slower the recovery time to normal state. The optimal intramuscular dose of xylazine was found to be 0.8-1.4 mg per Kg of body weight for sika deer, 0.6-1.0 mg for red deer, 1.0-1.4 mg for elk, 0.2-0.4 mg for pere david deer, and 0.6-1.0 mg for reindeer.
