ABSTRACT
This chapter aims to provide clinicians and scientists working with marine mammals with a convenient and rapidly accessible single source on the subject. A compilation of the available pharmacological information on cetaceans, pinnipeds, sirenians, sea otters (Enhydra lutris), and polar bears (Ursus maritimus) is provided. Readers must be aware at all times that drugs discussed in this chapter may have only been used on a limited number of individual animals from a narrow range of species, so all information must be interpreted with caution. No drugs have been licensed for use in marine mammals.
