  1. 6. – Cardiac glycoside, increases contractility; narrow therapeutic window.
  2. 7. – Alpha-blocker, used for urethral obstruction.
  3. 9. – Vitamin B1 supplement; deficiency causes neurologic issues.
  4. 11. – Aminoglycoside antibiotic, broad-spectrum, nephrotoxic risk.
  5. 14. – Stimulates adrenal cortex; used in ACTH stim tests.
  6. 15. – Antidote for venomous snake bites.
  7. 16. – Tricyclic antidepressant; used for anxiety or neuropathic pain in pets.
  8. 17. – Dissociative anesthetic (combined with zolazepam in Telazol).
  9. 18. – Beta-blocker, slows heart rate, used in cardiac disease.
  10. 19. – Expectorant; also used IV in equine anesthesia.
  11. 21. – Bronchodilator, relaxes airway smooth muscle.
  12. 22. – Calcium channel blocker; controls supraventricular tachycardia.
  13. 23. – Potent opioid analgesic.
  14. 24. – Reversal for xylazine.
  15. 25. – Opioid analgesic, less common in vet use.
Down
  1. 1. – Cephalosporin antibiotic, broad coverage including anaerobes.
  2. 2. – Increases water retention; used for diabetes insipidus & CPR.
  3. 3. – Benzodiazepine; combined with tiletamine (Telazol).
  4. 4. Oxide – Inhalant anesthetic gas; provides analgesia.
  5. 5. – Alpha-2 agonist; sedative/analgesic in large animals.
  6. 8. – Opioid agonist-antagonist; mild analgesia, less sedation.
  7. 10. – Macrolide antibiotic, often for respiratory infections.
  8. 12. – NSAID, platelet inhibitor; caution in cats.
  9. 13. – Aminoglycoside antibiotic; nephrotoxic, ototoxic risk.
  10. 14. – Third-generation cephalosporin antibiotic.
  11. 20. – Antidote for ethylene glycol (antifreeze) poisoning.
