Two protocols for chemical restraint in howler-redheads were evaluated. We used 12 healthy red howler monkeys, weighing 6.4±0.4 kg, which were fasted and without water six and two hours, respectively. The animals were divided into two groups that received intramuscular injection: TZ (n=6) which received tiletamine-zolazepam (Zoletil®) at a dose of 3.6mg/kg and CEMTRA (n=6) which received ketamine S (+), tramadol and midazolan
(Cemtra®, pilot batch 001/10, Ouro Fino Saúde Animal Ltda, Cravinhos/SP, Brazil, comprising 100mg/ml of ketamine S (+), tramadol 20mg/ml and 10mg/ml of midazolam) in dose of 1ml of the association for each 10kg of body weight, equivalent doses of 10mg/kg,
1mg/kg and 2mg/kg, respectively. Prior to administration of drugs (M0) were evaluated: heart rate (HR), respiratory rate (RR), rectal temperature (RT), capillary refill time (CRT), systolic arterial pressure (SAP), hemoglobin oxygen saturation (SpO2 ), presence of salivation, degree of muscle relaxation and
