The choice is oral or intravenous. What are the pros and cons?
Thank you.

Intravenous is way faster, like general anesthesia. Oral takes longer and may produce nausea and vomit.

Either method will work and I don't see much of a con with either. Intravenous will be faster.

I do not just to understand that means Pegasos. I think it was a horse or something like this.....

If we talk about veterinary pentobarbital, of course....I do not know about strictly powders.
Oral is disgusting, it is so much hard to drink it; but my guessing if it could be disguised or hidden or mixed or whatever.........
Intravenous is better way, but technically it is not easy.

"Pegasos Swiss Association is a voluntary assisted dying (VAD) organization based in Basel, Switzerland. Pegasos believes that it is the human right of every rational adult of sound mind, regardless of state of health, to choose the manner and timing of their death."

Others explained well, so it is just a question of personal preference .

I'd prefer euthanasia without IV , despite its medical benefits , and I'd also improve procedure to make it more peaceful and personal . A person should ctb smiling . That's the least we can do .

Really appreciate for that explanation,................so far such association was unkown for me.
I guess soon there will be more associations than people who will want to die.
At the other hand, my post is totally useless because they are using pento powders, I guess..........then it is not the veterinary solution.
Thanks again.

with nurses, management and administration, IV might be a good choice...
if you are alone in you house, with N in the fridge like me, and you are no IV expert, oral is the choice...
