Cited dose rules for Xylazine in pet rat are available with a free ExoticRx account. Each row carries the route, dose range, frequency, indication, evidence level, and primary-source citation.
Why a species-specific page? Xylazine pharmacokinetics differ across species: dose ranges, intervals, and route preferences are not interchangeable. Cross-extrapolation from canine doses is unsafe in pet rat — the rules above are the citations specific to this species, not generic recommendations.
