Diazepam and chlorpromazine stimulate feeding in dwarf goats.
5 adult dwarf goats were injected intravenously with diazepam, chlorpromazine or isotonic saline. Both diazepam at 0.04 mg/kg and chlorpromazine at 0.5 mg/kg significantly stimulated food intake above the control 0.9% NaCl levels. The stimulatory effect appears to be most pronounced within the first 15 min post injection, and was no longer evident between 30 and 45 min after the bolus injection of the tranquillizers.
