Precedex push

Guys, does anyone know of any literature supportong precedex iv push dosing rather than the usual 10 minute infusion? most textbooks only discuss continuous infusions. is this mostly based on clinical practice/experience? I’m aware of the theoretical risk of bradycardia or hypotension, but I haven’t found any textbook or paper clearly explaining why the drug is recommended to be given over 10 minutes or where that recommendation originally came from. I’d appreciate any references.
