Tranquilizing a broodmare to allow the foal to nurse is generally not recommended, as it can pose risks to both the mare and the foal. Tranquilizers can affect the mare's ability to care for and bond with her foal, as well as impact the foal's ability to nurse effectively. If a mare is having difficulty allowing her foal to nurse, it's better to consult a veterinarian for alternative solutions that prioritize the health and safety of both the mare and foal.
