"html": "<strong>What is Amitriptyline?</strong><br>\nAmitriptyline is a prescription used in dogs and cats for the treatment of behavior problems, especially anxiety disorders. Amitriptyline treats separation anxiety in dogs and is also used to treat excessive-compulsive grooming behaviors, urine spraying and anxiety disorders in cats.\n<p><strong>Who is it for?</strong><br>\nAmitriptyline is for dogs and cats.\n\n<p><strong>What are the benefits?</strong><br>\n<table cellpadding=\"4\" cellspacing=\"0\" border=\"0\">\n <tr valign=\"top\">\n <td><strong>*</strong></td>\n\t <td>Prescription behavior modification medication for cats and dogs</td>\n </tr>\n <tr valign=\"top\">\n <td><strong>*</strong></span></td>\n\t <td>Helps to relieve behavior problems associated with anxiety</td>\n </tr>\n <tr valign=\"top\">\n <td><strong>*</strong></td>\n\t <td>Amitriptyline tablets are available in multiple prescription strengths</td>\n </tr>\n</table></p>\nAmitriptyline treats anxiety disorders, such as separation anxiety in dogs. It is also used to treat excessive-compulsive grooming behaviors, urine spraying and anxiety disorders in cats. Amitriptyline is a prescription antidepressant that may also be prescribed as an adjunct to other treatments for excessive scratching or other self-destructive behaviors. \n\n<p>Behavior modification medications are used to help treat behavior problems in pets. In almost all cases, the drug alone will not be sufficient and specific training techniques will need to be used. In some cases, your veterinarian may determine that the medication can be stopped when the behavior improves. </p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How does Amitriptyline work?</strong><br>\n\nAmitriptyline is a tricyclic antidepressant prescribed to treat certain pet anxiety disorders. Tricyclic antidepressants (TCA) work in the brain by changing the normal function of the chemicals serotonin and norepinephrine, which help communication between nerves. Use Amitriptyline in conjunction with behavior modification exercises for the most effective approach to treat anxiety and other pet behavior disorders.\n\n<p><strong>Is there a generic equivalent available?</strong><br>\nThis is a generic medication. \n\n<p><strong>How is it given?</strong><br>\nAmitriptyline tablets are given by mouth. Always follow the dosage instructions provided by your veterinarian. If you have difficulty giving the medication, contact your veterinarian.\n<p>Do not suddenly stop giving the medication unless advised by your veterinarian. </p>\n\n<p>This medication should only be given to the pet for whom it was prescribed.</p>\n\n\n<p><strong>What results can I expect?</strong><br>\nAmitriptyline, by itself, may not cure a behavior problem, but will help manage the symptoms.

It is also used to treat excessive-compulsive grooming behaviors, urine spraying and anxiety disorders in cats. Amitriptyline is a prescription antidepressant that may also be prescribed as an adjunct to other treatments for excessive scratching or other self-destructive behaviors. \n\n<p>Behavior modification medications are used to help treat behavior problems in pets. In almost all cases, the drug alone will not be sufficient and specific training techniques will need to be used. In some cases, your veterinarian may determine that the medication can be stopped when the behavior improves. </p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How does Amitriptyline work?</strong><br>\n\nAmitriptyline is a tricyclic antidepressant prescribed to treat certain pet anxiety disorders. Tricyclic antidepressants (TCA) work in the brain by changing the normal function of the chemicals serotonin and norepinephrine, which help communication between nerves. Use Amitriptyline in conjunction with behavior modification exercises for the most effective approach to treat anxiety and other pet behavior disorders.\n\n<p><strong>Is there a generic equivalent available?</strong><br>\nThis is a generic medication. \n\n<p><strong>How is it given?</strong><br>\nAmitriptyline tablets are given by mouth.

"html": "<strong>What is Prednisone?</strong><br>\nPrednisone reduces inflammation and is also used to suppress the actions of the immune system. It is used in the treatment of autoimmune diseases such as lupus or pemphigus, autoimmune hemolytic anemias, asthma and inhalant allergies (atopy), cancers, brain swelling, certain types of colitis, certain kidney diseases, and Addison's disease.</p>\n<p><strong>Who is it for?</strong><br>\nPrednisone is for dogs and cats.</p>\n\n<p><strong>What are the benefits?</strong><br>\n<table cellpadding=\"4\" cellspacing=\"0\" border=\"0\">\n <tr valign=\"top\">\n <td><strong>*</strong></td>\n\t <td>Prednisone is a powerful anti-inflammatory medication that treats inflammation from allergies and more</td>\n </tr>\n <tr valign=\"top\">\n <td><strong>*</strong></td>\n\t <td>Also helps treat auto-immune diseases, and certain types of brain swelling and cancers</td>\n </tr>\n <tr valign=\"top\">\n <td><strong>*</strong></td>\n\t <td>It is used to treat Addison's disease, in which the body does not produce enough corticosteroids</td>\n </tr>\n\t <tr valign=\"top\">\n <td><strong>*</strong></td>\n\t <td>Oral dosage regimen can be effectively individualized for your pet by your veterinarian</td>\n </tr>\n</table></p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How does Prednisone work?</strong><br>\nPrednisone has an effect on virtually every organ system in the body. Prednisone is a corticosteroid that blocks the production of substances that trigger allergic and inflammatory actions. Prednisone is used to modify the body's immune response. At lower doses it helps to reduce inflammation by decreasing the activity of certain cells and chemicals produced by the body that cause inflammation. At higher doses, it can suppress the immune system by decreasing the number of cells necessary for a proper immune response.</p>\n\n\n<p><strong>Is there a generic equivalent available?</strong><br>\nPrednisone is the common drug name and there are multiple generic equivalents available.</p>\n\n<p><strong>How is it given?</strong><br>\nPrednisone is an oral tablet, given by mouth. It may be given with food to avoid stomach upset. Always follow the dosage instructions provided by your veterinarian. If you have difficulties giving the medication, contact your veterinarian. Dosage depends on the product used. Your veterinarian may recommend starting at a higher dose and then reducing the dose every few days to a week. If on long-term therapy, do not discontinue the drug abruptly. The dose needs to be tapered off over several days to weeks to allow the body to start making its own cortisol again. This medication should only be given to the pet for which it was prescribed.</p>\n\n<p><strong>What results can I expect?</strong><br>\nWhen used to treat inflammatory conditions, such as allergies, the success rate is very good and improvements can be seen in several days. If the Prednisone is stopped, signs of the disease may reappear. Autoimmune diseases and cancers are more difficult to treat and the success rate will depend on the type and severity of the condition.</p>\n\n\n<p><strong>What form(s) does it come in?</strong><br>\nPrednisone comes in an oral tablet form. </p>\n\n<p>Please click on <strong>\"More Information\"</strong> for possible drug and food interactions with this medication.</p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<p><strong>Brand Name</strong><br>\nThere are no veterinary brand names for prednisone tablets. There are multiple human brand names including Mericorten, Deltasone, and Sterapred.</p>\n\n<p><strong>Pronunciation</strong><br>\nPRED-ni-zone</p>\n\n<p><strong>Common Drug Name</strong><br>\nPrednisone</p>\n\n<p><strong>What should I discuss with my veterinarian while considering Prednisone?</strong><br>\nAsk your veterinarian what dose will provide the most benefit while minimizing any side effects. Also discuss how long the treatment period will be and what type of outcome is expected. You and your veterinarian should talk about any other treatment options that are recommended for your pet.</p>\n<p>Tell your veterinarian if your pet has diabetes; stomach ulcers; Cushings disease; a bacterial, viral or fungal infection; heart, liver or kidney disease; may be pregnant or is nursing, or if you intend to breed your dog.</p>\n<p>Notify your veterinarian of any other medications or supplements your dog is taking. Also if your dog has had any reactions to previous medications.</p>\n\n<p><strong>What should I do if I miss a dose?</strong><br>\nSince dosage regimens differ greatly, if you miss a dose, contact your veterinarian to determine when to give the next dose.</p>\n\n<p><strong>What is the most important information I should know?</strong><br>\nSide effects can be minimized by tailoring the treatment regimen for your pet's specific condition. You will need to work closely with your veterinarian to determine the proper dose. If used long-term, this medication should not be stopped abruptly. The dose needs to be tapered over a course of time as determined by your veterinarian.</p>\n\n<p><strong>Who should not take it?</strong><br>\nNot for use in animals with systemic fungal infections, some types of mange (mites), stomach ulcers, Cushing's disease, high blood pressure, kidney disease, or congestive heart failure. Do not use in pregnant animals. It may cause premature birth and birth defects in some animals. Predisone may stunt growth if used in young, growing animals or is given to nursing mothers.</p>\n\n<p><strong>What side effects may be seen when taking Prednisone?</strong><br>\n<p>Side effects are usually dose dependent. If side effects occur, contact your veterinarian, who may decrease the dosage, frequency, or type of corticosteroid. </p>\n<p>The most common side effects are increased appetite, drinking, and urination. Your pet may have more \"accidents\" and need to go outside or use the litter box more often. Less common side effects include weight gain, panting, diarrhea, vomiting, and behavior changes. </p>\n<p>Side effects of daily long-term use include muscle loss, weakness, and the development of diabetes or hyperadrenocorticism (Cushing's disease). The typical signs of these diseases are increased thirst, urination, and appetite. Animals with Cushing's disease may also develop thin skin, a poor hair coat, and a \"pot-belly.\" Side effects may also include activation or worsening of hypothyroidism or pancreatitis.</p>\n<p>Immune system suppression may occur at high doses, making a pet more susceptible to infection. Contact your veterinarian if your pet has a fever (over 103° F), painful urination (a sign of urinary tract infection), tiredness, sneezing, coughing, or runny eyes. </p>\n\n<p><strong>How is it stored?</strong><br>\nStore at room temperature, in tight, light resistant, childproof container.</p>\n\n<p><strong>What should I do if I know of or suspect there has been an overdose?</strong><br>\nA short-term overdose is unlikely to cause problems. Chronic, or long-term, overdose is likely to cause signs of Cushing's disease or diabetes mellitus; both diseases commonly cause increased urinating, drinking, and eating. Abruptly stopping long-term treatment may cause signs of Addison's disease, including vomiting, weakness, collapse and sudden death. If you know or suspect your pet has had an overdose, or if you observe any of these signs in your pet, contact your veterinarian immediately.</p>\n\n<p><strong>What should I avoid when giving my pet Prednisone?</strong><br>\nConsult your veterinarian before using prednisone with vitamins and supplements or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) such as aspirin, carprofen (Novox or Rimadyl), deracoxib (Deramaxx), etodolac (EtoGesic), meloxicam (Metacam),firocoxib (Previcox), or tepoxalin (Zubrin). Discuss the use of prednisone with your veterinarian if it will be used along with insulin, modified live vaccines, phenytoin, phenobarbital, rifampin, cyclosporine, estrogens, erythromycin, or mitotane, amphotericin B, furosemide, or thiazide, since interactions may occur.</p>\n<p>Prednisone may cause abnormal levels of hepatic enzymes, thyroid hormone, cholesterol, and potassium in the blood, and can affect many laboratory tests. Make sure your veterinarian knows your pet is taking Prednisone prior to any testing.</p>\n\n"

Tricyclic antidepressants (TCA) work in the brain by changing the normal function of the chemicals serotonin and norepinephrine, which help communication between nerves. Use Amitriptyline in conjunction with behavior modification exercises for the most effective approach to treat anxiety and other pet behavior disorders.\n\n<p><strong>Is there a generic equivalent available?</strong><br>\nThis is a generic medication. \n\n<p><strong>How is it given?</strong><br>\nAmitriptyline tablets are given by mouth. Always follow the dosage instructions provided by your veterinarian. If you have difficulty giving the medication, contact your veterinarian.\n<p>Do not suddenly stop giving the medication unless advised by your veterinarian. </p>\n\n<p>This medication should only be given to the pet for whom it was prescribed.</p>\n\n\n<p><strong>What results can I expect?</strong><br>\nAmitriptyline, by itself, may not cure a behavior problem, but will help manage the symptoms. It should be used in combination with techniques to try to change the unwanted behavior. It generally takes several weeks to reach an effective level in the body.\n\n\n<p><strong>What form(s) does it come in?</strong><br>\nTablets\n\t<p>Please click on <strong>\"More Information\"</strong> for possible drug and food interactions with this medication.</p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\n\n<p><strong>Brand Name</strong><br>\nElavil\n\n<p><strong>Pronunciation</strong><br>\nELA-vil<br>\nA-ME-trip-ta-lean\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Common Drug Name</strong><br>\nAmitriptyline\n\n<p><strong>What should I discuss with my veterinarian while considering Amitriptyline?</strong><br>\nAmitriptyline should be used in conjunction with techniques to try to change the unwanted behavior. Discuss, in detail, what behavior modification techniques will work on your pet. Also discuss how long the treatment period will be and what type of outcome is expected. You and your veterinarian should talk about any other treatment options that are recommended for your pet. \n<p>Tell your veterinarian if your pet has had seizures, or has diabetes, liver disease, thyroid disease, heart disease, glaucoma, \"dry eye\", or adrenal tumors. Also tell your veterinarian if your pet may be pregnant, is nursing, or if you intend to breed your pet. </p>\n<p>Notify your veterinarian of any other medications or supplements your pet is taking, especially selegiline (Anipryl) or amitraz (Preventic tick collars or Mitaban), and if your pet has had any reactions to previous medications.</p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What should I do if I miss a dose?</strong><br>\nIf you miss a dose, give it as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for the next dose, skip the one you missed and go back to the regular schedule. Do not give two doses at once. \n\n<p><strong>What is the most important information I should know?</strong><br>\nTo be most effective, Amitriptyline needs to be used in combination with behavior modification techniques.\n\n<p>Consult your veterinarian before using other medications or tick collars along with Amitriptyline.</p>\n<p>Contact your veterinarian immediately if your pet has a seizure while taking Amitriptyline.</p>\n\n\n<p><strong>Who should not take it?</strong><br>\nDo not use in animals hypersensitive (allergic) to tricyclic antidepressants. Use with extreme caution in animals with seizure disorders/epilepsy, diabetes mellitus, liver disease, or heart disease. Do not use in pregnant or lactating animals (female animals nursing their young) unless the benefits outweigh the risks. This medication should only be given to the pet for which it was prescribed.\n\n<p><strong>What side effects may be seen when taking Amitriptyline?</strong><br>\nDogs: May see an increase in excitability or sedation; lack of appetite, vomiting, constipation, or diarrhea; increased appetite and weight gain; increased water consumption, caused by dry mouth; abnormal heart rhythms, which may cause weakness or collapse; bone marrow suppression with anemia, causing weakness and pale gums; or low platelets, causing an increased tendency to bruise or bleed.\n\n<p>Cats: May see drooling, sedation, urinary retention, loss of appetite, vomiting, constipation; increased appetite and weight gain; increased water consumption, caused by dry mouth; unkempt hair coat; incoordination, disorientation; abnormal heart rhythms, which may cause weakness or collapse; or low platelets, causing an increased tendency to bruise or bleed.</p>\n\n\n<p><strong>How is it stored?</strong><br>\nStore at room temperature in a tight, light-resistant, childproof container. Keep out of reach of children and pets.\n\n<p><strong>What should I do if I know of or suspect there has been an overdose?</strong><br>\nIf you know or suspect your pet has had an overdose, contact your veterinarian immediately. An overdose can be life-threatening. \n\n<p><strong>What should I avoid when giving my pet Amitriptyline?</strong><br>\nConsult your veterinarian before using Amitriptyline with vitamins, supplements, ephedrine, monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs) such as selegiline (deprenyl, Anipryl) or amitraz (an ingredient in some tick collars, and in Mitaban, a treatment for mange), anticholinergic medications (atropine), central nervous system (CNS) depressants, or sympathomimetic agents like phenylpropanolamine (Proin, Cystolamine), methimazole, or other antithyroid drugs, or cimetidine, since interactions may occur.\n\n"

While taking K BroVet, your pet will probably continue to have seizures but they will generally occur less frequently and be less severe. Keep a journal of when your pet has seizures, how long they last, if they are related to any other event, etc. This will help monitor the effectiveness of the K BroVet. \n<p>Your pet may need periodic blood tests while taking K BroVet.</p>\n<p>Do not miss a dose and try to give the K BroVet at the same time every day.</p>\n<p>Contact your veterinarian if you notice any side effects.</p>\n\n\n<p><strong>Who should not take it?</strong><br>\nNot for use in animals hypersensitive (allergic) to it.

This may last several weeks. May also see changes in appetite, vomiting, constipation, or personality changes. Other side effects include increased thirst, drinking, and urination. \n<p>Consult your veterinarian if you notice any of the above side effects.</p>\n<p>When giving high doses, may see severe vomiting, muscle pain, twitching, staggering, an inability to use one or more limbs, or pupils of different sizes. If you observe any of these signs, contact your veterinarian immediately.</p>\n<p>Potassium bromide, when used in conjunction with phenobarbital, has been associated with the development of pancreatitis, with signs that include loss of appetite, abdominal pain, and vomiting. </p>\n<p>If your pet experiences an allergic reaction to the medication, signs may include facial swelling, hives, scratching, sudden onset of diarrhea, vomiting, shock, seizures, pale gums, cold limbs, or coma. If you observe any of these signs, contact your veterinarian immediately.</p>\n\n\n<p><strong>How is it stored?</strong><br>\nStore at room temperature in a tight, light-resistant, childproof container. Keep out of reach of children and pets. \n\n<p><strong>What should I do if I know of or suspect there has been an overdose?</strong><br>\nOverdosing is more likely seen from chronic overdosing than with a single large dose.

Salt intake needs to remain steady since chloride levels in the blood can affect the levels of bromide. Do not restrict salt intake or give salty foods or treats (e.g., pig ears) while your pet is receiving K BroVet. Contact your veterinarian before changing diets or types of treats. \n\n"

It is used for the treatment of heart disease, including arrhythmias, in cats, dogs, and certain other small animals. It slows the heart rate and causes the heart to work more efficiently. \n\n\n<p><strong>How does Atenolol work?</strong><br>\nAtenolol works by blocking a specific type of receptor in the heart. This decreases the heart rate, blood pressure, and the workload of the heart.\n\n\n<p><strong>Is there a generic equivalent available?</strong><br>\nThis is a generic medication.\n\n<p><strong>How is it given?</strong><br>\nAtenolol tablets are given by mouth, with or without food.

If it is almost time for the next dose, skip the one you missed and go back to the regular schedule. Do not give two doses at once.\n\n<p><strong>What is the most important information I should know?</strong><br>\nConditions requiring treatment with Atenolol are serious and require close monitoring by your veterinarian. Follow your veterinarian's directions closely and do not discontinue the drug abruptly or without directions from your veterinarian, or your pet's condition may become worse.\n\n<p><strong>Who should not take it?</strong><br>\nAtenolol is not for use in animals hypersensitive (allergic) to Atenolol. Use with caution in animals with kidney disease. Use with caution in animals with diabetes since it can affect blood sugar levels.

May constrict the bronchi, causing coughing, wheezing, or difficulty breathing. It may cause the heart\nrate to be too slow if given at an improper dose. Consult with your veterinarian if you notice any of the above side effects.\n\n<p>If your pet experiences an allergic reaction to the medication, signs may include facial swelling, hives, scratching, sudden onset of diarrhea, vomiting, shock, seizures, pale gums, cold limbs, or coma. If you observe any of these signs, contact your veterinarian immediately.</p>\n\n\n<p><strong>How is it stored?</strong><br>\nStore at room temperature in a tight, light-resistant, childproof container. Keep out of reach of children and pets.\n\n<p><strong>What should I do if I know of or suspect there has been an overdose?</strong><br>\nShould overdose occur, you may see very slow heart rate, inability to exercise, shortness of breath, cough, or change in behavior or attitude. If you know or suspect your pet has had an overdose, or if you observe any of these signs in your pet, contact your veterinarian immediately.\n\n<p><strong>What should I avoid when giving my pet Atenolol?</strong><br>\nConsult your veterinarian before using Atenolol with vitamins, supplements, terbutaline, epinephrine, phenylpropanolamine, phenothiazines (tranquilizers such as acepromazine), furosemide (Lasix), hydralazine, or insulin since interactions may occur.\n\n"

It is also used to treat excessive-compulsive grooming behaviors, urine spraying and anxiety disorders in cats. Amitriptyline is a prescription antidepressant that may also be prescribed as an adjunct to other treatments for excessive scratching or other self-destructive behaviors. \n\n<p>Behavior modification medications are used to help treat behavior problems in pets. In almost all cases, the drug alone will not be sufficient and specific training techniques will need to be used. In some cases, your veterinarian may determine that the medication can be stopped when the behavior improves. </p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How does Amitriptyline work?</strong><br>\n\nAmitriptyline is a tricyclic antidepressant prescribed to treat certain pet anxiety disorders. Tricyclic antidepressants (TCA) work in the brain by changing the normal function of the chemicals serotonin and norepinephrine, which help communication between nerves. Use Amitriptyline in conjunction with behavior modification exercises for the most effective approach to treat anxiety and other pet behavior disorders.\n\n<p><strong>Is there a generic equivalent available?</strong><br>\nThis is a generic medication. \n\n<p><strong>How is it given?</strong><br>\nAmitriptyline tablets are given by mouth. Always follow the dosage instructions provided by your veterinarian. If you have difficulty giving the medication, contact your veterinarian.\n<p>Do not suddenly stop giving the medication unless advised by your veterinarian. </p>\n\n<p>This medication should only be given to the pet for whom it was prescribed.</p>\n\n\n<p><strong>What results can I expect?</strong><br>\nAmitriptyline, by itself, may not cure a behavior problem, but will help manage the symptoms. It should be used in combination with techniques to try to change the unwanted behavior. It generally takes several weeks to reach an effective level in the body.\n\n\n<p><strong>What form(s) does it come in?</strong><br>\nTablets\n\t<p>Please click on <strong>\"More Information\"</strong> for possible drug and food interactions with this medication.</p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\n\n<p><strong>Brand Name</strong><br>\nElavil\n\n<p><strong>Pronunciation</strong><br>\nELA-vil<br>\nA-ME-trip-ta-lean\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Common Drug Name</strong><br>\nAmitriptyline\n\n<p><strong>What should I discuss with my veterinarian while considering Amitriptyline?</strong><br>\nAmitriptyline should be used in conjunction with techniques to try to change the unwanted behavior. Discuss, in detail, what behavior modification techniques will work on your pet. Also discuss how long the treatment period will be and what type of outcome is expected. You and your veterinarian should talk about any other treatment options that are recommended for your pet. \n<p>Tell your veterinarian if your pet has had seizures, or has diabetes, liver disease, thyroid disease, heart disease, glaucoma, \"dry eye\", or adrenal tumors. Also tell your veterinarian if your pet may be pregnant, is nursing, or if you intend to breed your pet. </p>\n<p>Notify your veterinarian of any other medications or supplements your pet is taking, especially selegiline (Anipryl) or amitraz (Preventic tick collars or Mitaban), and if your pet has had any reactions to previous medications.</p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What should I do if I miss a dose?</strong><br>\nIf you miss a dose, give it as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for the next dose, skip the one you missed and go back to the regular schedule. Do not give two doses at once. \n\n<p><strong>What is the most important information I should know?</strong><br>\nTo be most effective, Amitriptyline needs to be used in combination with behavior modification techniques.\n\n<p>Consult your veterinarian before using other medications or tick collars along with Amitriptyline.</p>\n<p>Contact your veterinarian immediately if your pet has a seizure while taking Amitriptyline.</p>\n\n\n<p><strong>Who should not take it?</strong><br>\nDo not use in animals hypersensitive (allergic) to tricyclic antidepressants. Use with extreme caution in animals with seizure disorders/epilepsy, diabetes mellitus, liver disease, or heart disease. Do not use in pregnant or lactating animals (female animals nursing their young) unless the benefits outweigh the risks. This medication should only be given to the pet for which it was prescribed.\n\n<p><strong>What side effects may be seen when taking Amitriptyline?</strong><br>\nDogs: May see an increase in excitability or sedation; lack of appetite, vomiting, constipation, or diarrhea; increased appetite and weight gain; increased water consumption, caused by dry mouth; abnormal heart rhythms, which may cause weakness or collapse; bone marrow suppression with anemia, causing weakness and pale gums; or low platelets, causing an increased tendency to bruise or bleed.\n\n<p>Cats: May see drooling, sedation, urinary retention, loss of appetite, vomiting, constipation; increased appetite and weight gain; increased water consumption, caused by dry mouth; unkempt hair coat; incoordination, disorientation; abnormal heart rhythms, which may cause weakness or collapse; or low platelets, causing an increased tendency to bruise or bleed.</p>\n\n\n<p><strong>How is it stored?</strong><br>\nStore at room temperature in a tight, light-resistant, childproof container. Keep out of reach of children and pets.\n\n<p><strong>What should I do if I know of or suspect there has been an overdose?</strong><br>\nIf you know or suspect your pet has had an overdose, contact your veterinarian immediately. An overdose can be life-threatening. \n\n<p><strong>What should I avoid when giving my pet Amitriptyline?</strong><br>\nConsult your veterinarian before using Amitriptyline with vitamins, supplements, ephedrine, monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs) such as selegiline (deprenyl, Anipryl) or amitraz (an ingredient in some tick collars, and in Mitaban, a treatment for mange), anticholinergic medications (atropine), central nervous system (CNS) depressants, or sympathomimetic agents like phenylpropanolamine (Proin, Cystolamine), methimazole, or other antithyroid drugs, or cimetidine, since interactions may occur.\n\n"

Treatment with SENTINEL FLAVOR TABS may begin at any time of year.

However, preexisting flea populations may continue to develop and emerge after treatment with SENTINEL FLAVOR TABS has begun. Based on results of clinical studies, this emergence generally occurs during the first 30-60 days.</div><div>Therefore, noticeable control may not be observed until several weeks after dosing when a preexisting infestation is present. Cooler geographic areas may have longer lag periods due to a prolonged flea life cycle.

"html": "<strong>What is Metoclopramide?</strong><br>\nMetoclopramide is a medication used to treat vomiting and acid reflux in many animal species. It also may be used to control side effects, such as vomiting, resulting from chemotherapy. In rabbits, it may aid in the treatment of hairballs. \n<p><strong>Who is it for?</strong><br>\nIt is for dogs, cats, and many other species. \n\n<p><strong>What are the benefits?</strong><br>\n<table cellpadding=\"4\" cellspacing=\"0\" border=\"0\">\n <tr valign=\"top\">\n <td><strong>*</strong></td>\n\t <td>Controls vomiting and esophageal reflux</td>\n </tr>\n <tr valign=\"top\">\n <td><strong>*</strong></span></td>\n\t <td>Can be used in many species of animals</td>\n </tr>\n <tr valign=\"top\">\n <td><strong>*</strong></td>\n\t <td>May also help control side effects resulting from chemotherapy, such as vomiting</td>\n </tr>\n</table></p>\n<p>Metoclopramide is commonly used in many species to treat vomiting, and reflux disease. It may aid in the treatment of hairballs in rabbits, and is often prescribed to prevent the side effects of chemotherapy, such as vomiting.</p>\n\n\n<p><strong>How does Metoclopramide work?</strong><br>\nWhen muscles in the stomach do not push the food through to the intestines, un-passed food can cause a sensation of nausea and bloating. In some cases, bile refluxes from the intestine back into the stomach, causing irritation and more nausea. Metoclopramide normalizes stomach contractions so that food and bile can pass in the correct direction. Metoclopramide also acts directly on the brain to help reduce vomiting.\n\n\n<p><strong>Is there a generic equivalent available?</strong><br>\nThis is a generic medication.\n\n<p><strong>How is it given?</strong><br>\nMetoclopramide is given orally with plenty of water. Always follow the dosage instructions provided by your veterinarian. If you have difficulty giving the medication, contact your veterinarian.\n\n<p>This medication should only be given to the pet for whom it was prescribed.</p>\n\n\n<p><strong>What results can I expect?</strong><br>\nMetoclopramide will not cure the underlying cause of the vomiting. Metoclopramide acts quite rapidly, but is short-acting, so generally must be given several times a day.\n\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What form(s) does it come in?</strong><br>\nThis medication comes in tablet form.\n<p>Please click on <strong>\"More Information\"</strong> for possible drug and food interactions with this medication.</p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<p><strong>Brand Name</strong><br>\nReglan, Maxolon\n\n<p><strong>Pronunciation</strong><br>\nmeht-oh-KLOE-pra-mide\n\n\n<p><strong>Common Drug Name</strong><br>\nMetoclopramide\n\n<p><strong>What should I discuss with my veterinarian while considering Metoclopramide?</strong><br>\nTalk to your veterinarian about what type of outcome is expected. Have your veterinarian explain the other treatment options that may be necessary to treat the cause of the vomiting in your pet.\n<p>Tell your veterinarian if your pet has a history of seizures or an adrenal gland tumor called a pheochromocytoma.</p>\n<p> Notify your veterinarian of any other medications or supplements your pet is taking, including insulin, and also if your pet has had any reactions to previous medications.</p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What should I do if I miss a dose?</strong><br>\nIf you miss a dose, give it as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for the next dose, skip the one you missed and go back to the regular schedule. Do not give two doses at once.\n\n<p><strong>What is the most important information I should know?</strong><br>\nMetoclopramide may help control the vomiting, but the underlying cause of the vomiting must also be treated. \n\n<p><strong>Who should not take it?</strong><br>\nNot for use in animals hypersensitive (allergic) to Metoclopramide. Do not use in an animal who has a\nstomach or intestinal blockage, or bleeding into the stomach. Do not use in an animal with a history of\nseizures. Metoclopramide could cause seizures.\n\n<p>Do not use in an animal with an adrenal tumor called a pheochromocytoma. It could result in a potentially fatal increase in blood pressure. </p>\n\n<p>Use with caution in pregnant or lactating animals (female animals nursing their young). Metoclopramide can cross the placenta and enter the milk.</p>\n\n\n<p><strong>What side effects may be seen when taking Metoclopramide?</strong><br>\nThe most common side effect is constipation. May also see behavior and attitude changes such as disorientation and frenzy. Consult your veterinarian if you notice any of the above side effects.\n\n<p>If your pet experiences an allergic reaction to the medication, signs may include facial swelling, hives, scratching, sudden onset of diarrhea, vomiting, shock, seizures, pale gums, cold limbs, or coma. If you observe any of these signs, contact your veterinarian immediately.</p>\n\n\n<p><strong>How is it stored?</strong><br>\nStore at room temperature in a tight, light-resistant, childproof container. Metoclopramide is destroyed by light. Keep out of the reach of children and pets.\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What should I do if I know of or suspect there has been an overdose?</strong><br>\nMay see sleepiness, staggering, agitation, seizures, vomiting, constipation, a rigid posture or involuntary movement of the eyes and limbs. If you know or suspect your pet has had an overdose, or if you observe any of these signs in your pet, contact your veterinarian immediately.\n\n<p><strong>What should I avoid when giving my pet Metoclopramide?</strong><br>\nConsult your veterinarian before using Metoclopramide with any other medications, including vitamins and supplements, since interactions may occur.\n\n<p>Because Metoclopramide increases the movement of stomach and intestinal contents, it can affect the absorption of many oral drugs. Metoclopramide may change the insulin requirements of diabetic animals. Sedatives and tranquilizers may increase the chance of behavior and attitude changes caused by Metoclopramide.</p>\n\n\n"

Treatment with SENTINEL FLAVOR TABS may begin at any time of year.

"html": "<strong>What is Amitriptyline?</strong><br>\nAmitriptyline is a prescription used in dogs and cats for the treatment of behavior problems, especially anxiety disorders. Amitriptyline treats separation anxiety in dogs and is also used to treat excessive-compulsive grooming behaviors, urine spraying and anxiety disorders in cats.\n<p><strong>Who is it for?</strong><br>\nAmitriptyline is for dogs and cats.\n\n<p><strong>What are the benefits?</strong><br>\n<table cellpadding=\"4\" cellspacing=\"0\" border=\"0\">\n <tr valign=\"top\">\n <td><strong>*</strong></td>\n\t <td>Prescription behavior modification medication for cats and dogs</td>\n </tr>\n <tr valign=\"top\">\n <td><strong>*</strong></span></td>\n\t <td>Helps to relieve behavior problems associated with anxiety</td>\n </tr>\n <tr valign=\"top\">\n <td><strong>*</strong></td>\n\t <td>Amitriptyline tablets are available in multiple prescription strengths</td>\n </tr>\n</table></p>\nAmitriptyline treats anxiety disorders, such as separation anxiety in dogs. It is also used to treat excessive-compulsive grooming behaviors, urine spraying and anxiety disorders in cats. Amitriptyline is a prescription antidepressant that may also be prescribed as an adjunct to other treatments for excessive scratching or other self-destructive behaviors. \n\n<p>Behavior modification medications are used to help treat behavior problems in pets. In almost all cases, the drug alone will not be sufficient and specific training techniques will need to be used. In some cases, your veterinarian may determine that the medication can be stopped when the behavior improves. </p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How does Amitriptyline work?</strong><br>\n\nAmitriptyline is a tricyclic antidepressant prescribed to treat certain pet anxiety disorders. Tricyclic antidepressants (TCA) work in the brain by changing the normal function of the chemicals serotonin and norepinephrine, which help communication between nerves. Use Amitriptyline in conjunction with behavior modification exercises for the most effective approach to treat anxiety and other pet behavior disorders.\n\n<p><strong>Is there a generic equivalent available?</strong><br>\nThis is a generic medication. \n\n<p><strong>How is it given?</strong><br>\nAmitriptyline tablets are given by mouth. Always follow the dosage instructions provided by your veterinarian. If you have difficulty giving the medication, contact your veterinarian.\n<p>Do not suddenly stop giving the medication unless advised by your veterinarian. </p>\n\n<p>This medication should only be given to the pet for whom it was prescribed.</p>\n\n\n<p><strong>What results can I expect?</strong><br>\nAmitriptyline, by itself, may not cure a behavior problem, but will help manage the symptoms. It should be used in combination with techniques to try to change the unwanted behavior. It generally takes several weeks to reach an effective level in the body.\n\n\n<p><strong>What form(s) does it come in?</strong><br>\nTablets\n\t<p>Please click on <strong>\"More Information\"</strong> for possible drug and food interactions with this medication.</p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\n\n<p><strong>Brand Name</strong><br>\nElavil\n\n<p><strong>Pronunciation</strong><br>\nELA-vil<br>\nA-ME-trip-ta-lean\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Common Drug Name</strong><br>\nAmitriptyline\n\n<p><strong>What should I discuss with my veterinarian while considering Amitriptyline?</strong><br>\nAmitriptyline should be used in conjunction with techniques to try to change the unwanted behavior. Discuss, in detail, what behavior modification techniques will work on your pet. Also discuss how long the treatment period will be and what type of outcome is expected. You and your veterinarian should talk about any other treatment options that are recommended for your pet. \n<p>Tell your veterinarian if your pet has had seizures, or has diabetes, liver disease, thyroid disease, heart disease, glaucoma, \"dry eye\", or adrenal tumors. Also tell your veterinarian if your pet may be pregnant, is nursing, or if you intend to breed your pet. </p>\n<p>Notify your veterinarian of any other medications or supplements your pet is taking, especially selegiline (Anipryl) or amitraz (Preventic tick collars or Mitaban), and if your pet has had any reactions to previous medications.</p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What should I do if I miss a dose?</strong><br>\nIf you miss a dose, give it as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for the next dose, skip the one you missed and go back to the regular schedule. Do not give two doses at once. \n\n<p><strong>What is the most important information I should know?</strong><br>\nTo be most effective, Amitriptyline needs to be used in combination with behavior modification techniques.\n\n<p>Consult your veterinarian before using other medications or tick collars along with Amitriptyline.</p>\n<p>Contact your veterinarian immediately if your pet has a seizure while taking Amitriptyline.</p>\n\n\n<p><strong>Who should not take it?</strong><br>\nDo not use in animals hypersensitive (allergic) to tricyclic antidepressants. Use with extreme caution in animals with seizure disorders/epilepsy, diabetes mellitus, liver disease, or heart disease. Do not use in pregnant or lactating animals (female animals nursing their young) unless the benefits outweigh the risks. This medication should only be given to the pet for which it was prescribed.\n\n<p><strong>What side effects may be seen when taking Amitriptyline?</strong><br>\nDogs: May see an increase in excitability or sedation; lack of appetite, vomiting, constipation, or diarrhea; increased appetite and weight gain; increased water consumption, caused by dry mouth; abnormal heart rhythms, which may cause weakness or collapse; bone marrow suppression with anemia, causing weakness and pale gums; or low platelets, causing an increased tendency to bruise or bleed.\n\n<p>Cats: May see drooling, sedation, urinary retention, loss of appetite, vomiting, constipation; increased appetite and weight gain; increased water consumption, caused by dry mouth; unkempt hair coat; incoordination, disorientation; abnormal heart rhythms, which may cause weakness or collapse; or low platelets, causing an increased tendency to bruise or bleed.</p>\n\n\n<p><strong>How is it stored?</strong><br>\nStore at room temperature in a tight, light-resistant, childproof container. Keep out of reach of children and pets.\n\n<p><strong>What should I do if I know of or suspect there has been an overdose?</strong><br>\nIf you know or suspect your pet has had an overdose, contact your veterinarian immediately. An overdose can be life-threatening. \n\n<p><strong>What should I avoid when giving my pet Amitriptyline?</strong><br>\nConsult your veterinarian before using Amitriptyline with vitamins, supplements, ephedrine, monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs) such as selegiline (deprenyl, Anipryl) or amitraz (an ingredient in some tick collars, and in Mitaban, a treatment for mange), anticholinergic medications (atropine), central nervous system (CNS) depressants, or sympathomimetic agents like phenylpropanolamine (Proin, Cystolamine), methimazole, or other antithyroid drugs, or cimetidine, since interactions may occur.\n\n"

Because most dogs find Tri-Heart Plus chewable tablets palatable, the product can be offered to the dog by hand. Alternatively, it may be added intact to a small amount of dry food or placed in the back of the dog’s mouth for forced swallowing.</div><div><br></div><div>Care should be taken that the dog consumes the complete dose, and treated animals should be observed for a few minutes after administration to ensure that part of the dose is not lost or rejected. If it is suspected that any of the dose has been lost, redosing is recommended.</div><div><br></div><div>Tri-Heart Plus chewable tablets should be given at monthly intervals during the period of the year when mosquitoes (vectors), potentially carrying infective heartworm larvae, are active. The initial dose must be given within a month (30 days) after the dog’s first exposure to mosquitoes. The final dose must be given within a month (30 days) after the dog’s last exposure to mosquitoes.</div><div><br></div><div>When replacing another heartworm preventive product in a heartworm disease preventive program, the first dose of Tri-Heart Plus chewable tablets must be given within a month (30 days) of the last dose of the former medication.</div><div><br></div><div>If the interval between doses exceeds a month (30 days), the efficacy of ivermectin can be reduced. Therefore, for optimal performance, the chewable tablet must be given once a month on or about the same day of the month. If treatment is delayed, whether by a few days or many, immediate treatment with Tri-Heart Plus chewable tablets and resumption of the recommended dosing regimen minimizes the opportunity for the development of adult heartworms.</div><div><br></div><div>Monthly treatment with Tri-Heart Plus chewable tablets also provides effective treatment and control of ascarids (<i>T. canis, T. leonina</i>) and hookworms (<i>A. caninum, U. stenocephala, A. braziliense</i>). Clients should be advised of measures to be taken to prevent reinfection with intestinal parasites.</div><div><br></div><div><b>Missed doses</b></div><div>If a dose is missed: give Tri-Heart Plus immediately to resume monthly dosing and notify your veterinarian. Do not give two doses at once.</div><div>If multiple doses have been missed, consult your veterinarian prior to restarting the monthly dosing schedule.</div><div><br></div><div><b>Storage</b></div><div>Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature between 59 and 86°F. Protect product from light. Keep out of the reach of children and pets. Tablets should remain sealed in their original packaging and should only be taken out of the blister pack at the time of dosing. Store away from heat and direct sunlight.</div><div>Do not store in the bathroom, near the kitchen sink, or in damp places. The medicine may break down if exposed to heat or moisture.</div><div><br></div><div><hr></div><div><br></div><div><b>Side effects</b></div><div>Tri-Heart Plus is generally well tolerated, and side effects are considered uncommon when given at the recommended dosage. The most common side effects of this medication are vomiting and diarrhea.</div><div>Other reported side effects include (but may not be limited to) decreased appetite, depression/lethargy, hypersalivation (drooling), and pupil dilation.</div><div><br></div><div>Contact your veterinarian immediately if your pet experiences severe/excessive drooling, seizures or tremors, or exhibits decreased coordination (e.g., staggering, stumbling, difficulty walking).</div><div><br></div><div>Notify your veterinarian if your pet experiences any of the effects described above, or if you notice any other side effects that are persistent or troublesome.</div><div>If you notice anything unusual, please consult your veterinarian.</div><div><br></div><div><b>Precautions</b></div><div><i>*For complete product information including warnings and precautions, please refer to the manufacturer package insert.</i></div><div><br></div><div>For oral use in dogs only- not for use in humans. Keep this and all drugs out of the reach of children. In case of ingestion by humans, consult a physician immediately.</div><div><br></div><div>All dogs should be tested for existing heartworm infection before starting treatment with Tri-Heart Plus chewable tablets which are not effective against adult <i>D. immitis</i>.

A mild hypersensitivity-type reaction, presumably due to dead or dying microfilariae and particularly involving a transient diarrhea has been observed in clinical trials with ivermectin alone after treatment of some dogs that have circulating microfilariae.</div><div><br></div><div>Do not administer to animals with a known history or suspected allergy/hypersensitivity to any avermectin or tetrahydropyrimidine drug, including this medication or any of its ingredients.

"html": "<strong><p>Your pet must have a current heartworm test result on file with your veterinarian in order to be prescribed heartworm medication. Heartworm testing is performed annually by your veterinarian to help protect your furry friend.</strong></p><br>\r\n\r\n<strong>What is Heartgard?</strong><br>\r\nHeartgard is a monthly oral pet med used in dogs and puppies as a heartworm preventive.</p>\r\n<p><strong>Who is it for?</strong><br>\r\nDogs and puppies over 6 weeks. Safe for pregnant/breeding females.</p>\r\n\r\n<p><strong>What are the benefits?</strong><br>\r\n<table cellpadding=\"4\" cellspacing=\"0\" border=\"0\">\r\n <tr valign=\"top\">\r\n <td><strong>*</strong></td>\r\n\t <td>Prescription pet med prevents heartworm infection in dogs and puppies </td>\r\n </tr>\r\n <tr valign=\"top\">\r\n <td><strong>*</strong></span></td>\r\n\t <td>Heartgard dog medication comes in convenient chewables </td>\r\n </tr>\r\n <tr valign=\"top\">\r\n <td><strong>*</strong></td>\r\n\t <td>Easy once-a-month administration</td>\r\n </tr>\r\n</table></p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>How does Heartgard work?</strong><br>\r\nHeartgard is used in the prevention of heartworm infections. It kills the immature form of the heartworm (Dirofilaria immitis). Heartgard contains ivermectin, which interferes with the parasite's nerve transmission, causing paralysis and death of the immature heartworms (larvae).</p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Is there a generic equivalent available?</strong><br>\r\nWe do not carry a generic form of Heartgard tablets/chewables.\r\n\r\n<p><strong>How is it given?</strong><br>\r\nHeartgard must be administered monthly, preferably on the same date each month. It is recommended (and our guarantee requires) that Heartgard be given year round, although some veterinarians may recommend giving it only during the mosquito season. If given seasonally, the first dose must be given within 30 days of the dog's first exposure to mosquitoes. The last dose must be given within 30 days after the dog's last exposure to mosquitoes.</p>\r\n<p>Remove only one Heartgard Chewable at a time from the foil-backed blister card. Put the remaining Heartgard Chewables back into the box to protect from light. Most dogs like the taste of Heartgard Chewables and will accept the chewable tablet as a treat. The chewable should be administered in a manner that encourages the dog to chew, rather than to swallow without chewing. Heartgard Chewables may be broken into pieces and fed to dogs that normally swallow treats whole. Care should be taken that the dog consumes the complete dose, and treated animals should be observed for a few minutes after administration to ensure that part of the dose is not lost or rejected. If not entirely consumed, give another full recommended dose as soon as possible.</p>\r\n\r\n<p><strong>What results can I expect?</strong><br>\r\nHeartgard will kill the immature heartworms the dog was exposed to in the preceding month. </p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>What form(s) does it come in?</strong><br>\r\nChewables, Tablets<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t<p><strong>Brand Name</strong><br>\r\nHeartgard for Dogs</p>\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Pronunciation</strong><br>\r\nHeart Guard</p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Common Drug Name</strong><br>\r\nIvermectin</p>\r\n\r\n<p><strong>What should I discuss with my veterinarian while considering Heartgard?</strong><br>\r\nTalk to your veterinarian about the heartworm testing that is recommended before starting your dog on a heartworm prevention program.</P>\r\n<p>Collies or other herding breeds may have a reaction to ivermectin if given over the recommended heartworm prevention dose. If your dog is one of these breeds, and your veterinarian has prescribed Heartgard, observe your pet for at least 8 hours after giving the medication for weakness, staggering, dilated pupils, trembling, drooling, or pressing the head against a wall. Contact your veterinarian immediately if you see these signs.</p>\r\n<p>Notify your veterinarian of any other medications or supplements your dog is taking, and also if your dog has had any reactions to previous medications.</p>\r\n\r\n<p><strong>What should I do if I miss a dose?</strong><br>\r\nIf a dose is missed and over 30 days have gone by since the last dose, give Heartgard immediately and resume the monthly dosing schedule. Tell your veterinarian that a dose was missed.</p>\r\n\r\n<p><strong>What is the most important information I should know?</strong><br>\r\nIf the interval between doses is longer than one month, the efficacy of the drug is reduced.</p>\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Who should not take it?</strong><br>\r\nDo not use in puppies less than 6 weeks of age. Considered to be safe to use in pregnant and lactating dogs (female animals nursing their young).</p>\r\n<p>Collies and herding breeds may have a reaction to Heartgard.</p>\r\n<p>This medication should only be given to the pet for which it was prescribed.</p>\r\n\r\n<p><strong>What side effects may be seen when taking Heartgard?</strong><br>\r\nSide effects of Heartgard are very rare, but may included vomiting and diarrhea. Even more uncommon ar incoordination, convulsions, or drooling. Contact your veterinarian immediately if you observe these signs.</p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>How is it stored?</strong><br>\r\nStore between 68°F-77°F (20°C-25°C). Short time periods between 59°F-86°F (15°C-30°C) are permitted. Protect product from light. The chewable form of the drug is appealing to pets and children. Store in a secure area to prevent an accidental overdose.</p>\r\n\r\n<p><strong>What should I do if I know of or suspect there has been an overdose?</strong><br>\r\nIf you know or suspect your pet has had an overdose, or if you observe diarrhea, vomiting, incoordination, convulsions or drooling, contact your veterinarian immediately.</p>\r\n\r\n<p><strong>What should I avoid when giving my pet Heartgard?</strong><br>\r\nAlthough there are no known drug or food interactions with this medication, consult with your veterinarian before using Heartgard with any other medications, including vitamins and supplements, since interactions may occur.</p>"

It is also used to treat excessive-compulsive grooming behaviors, urine spraying and anxiety disorders in cats. Amitriptyline is a prescription antidepressant that may also be prescribed as an adjunct to other treatments for excessive scratching or other self-destructive behaviors. \n\n<p>Behavior modification medications are used to help treat behavior problems in pets.

Prednisone is a corticosteroid that blocks the production of substances that trigger allergic and inflammatory actions. Prednisone is used to modify the body's immune response. At lower doses it helps to reduce inflammation by decreasing the activity of certain cells and chemicals produced by the body that cause inflammation. At higher doses, it can suppress the immune system by decreasing the number of cells necessary for a proper immune response.</p>\n\n\n<p><strong>Is there a generic equivalent available?</strong><br>\nPrednisone is the common drug name and there are multiple generic equivalents available.</p>\n\n<p><strong>How is it given?</strong><br>\nPrednisone is an oral tablet, given by mouth. It may be given with food to avoid stomach upset. Always follow the dosage instructions provided by your veterinarian. If you have difficulties giving the medication, contact your veterinarian. Dosage depends on the product used. Your veterinarian may recommend starting at a higher dose and then reducing the dose every few days to a week. If on long-term therapy, do not discontinue the drug abruptly. The dose needs to be tapered off over several days to weeks to allow the body to start making its own cortisol again. This medication should only be given to the pet for which it was prescribed.</p>\n\n<p><strong>What results can I expect?</strong><br>\nWhen used to treat inflammatory conditions, such as allergies, the success rate is very good and improvements can be seen in several days. If the Prednisone is stopped, signs of the disease may reappear. Autoimmune diseases and cancers are more difficult to treat and the success rate will depend on the type and severity of the condition.</p>\n\n\n<p><strong>What form(s) does it come in?</strong><br>\nPrednisone comes in an oral tablet form. </p>\n\n<p>Please click on <strong>\"More Information\"</strong> for possible drug and food interactions with this medication.</p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<p><strong>Brand Name</strong><br>\nThere are no veterinary brand names for prednisone tablets.

You and your veterinarian should talk about any other treatment options that are recommended for your pet.</p>\n<p>Tell your veterinarian if your pet has diabetes; stomach ulcers; Cushings disease; a bacterial, viral or fungal infection; heart, liver or kidney disease; may be pregnant or is nursing, or if you intend to breed your dog.</p>\n<p>Notify your veterinarian of any other medications or supplements your dog is taking. Also if your dog has had any reactions to previous medications.</p>\n\n<p><strong>What should I do if I miss a dose?</strong><br>\nSince dosage regimens differ greatly, if you miss a dose, contact your veterinarian to determine when to give the next dose.</p>\n\n<p><strong>What is the most important information I should know?</strong><br>\nSide effects can be minimized by tailoring the treatment regimen for your pet's specific condition. You will need to work closely with your veterinarian to determine the proper dose. If used long-term, this medication should not be stopped abruptly. The dose needs to be tapered over a course of time as determined by your veterinarian.</p>\n\n<p><strong>Who should not take it?</strong><br>\nNot for use in animals with systemic fungal infections, some types of mange (mites), stomach ulcers, Cushing's disease, high blood pressure, kidney disease, or congestive heart failure. Do not use in pregnant animals. It may cause premature birth and birth defects in some animals. Predisone may stunt growth if used in young, growing animals or is given to nursing mothers.</p>\n\n<p><strong>What side effects may be seen when taking Prednisone?</strong><br>\n<p>Side effects are usually dose dependent. If side effects occur, contact your veterinarian, who may decrease the dosage, frequency, or type of corticosteroid. </p>\n<p>The most common side effects are increased appetite, drinking, and urination. Your pet may have more \"accidents\" and need to go outside or use the litter box more often. Less common side effects include weight gain, panting, diarrhea, vomiting, and behavior changes. </p>\n<p>Side effects of daily long-term use include muscle loss, weakness, and the development of diabetes or hyperadrenocorticism (Cushing's disease). The typical signs of these diseases are increased thirst, urination, and appetite. Animals with Cushing's disease may also develop thin skin, a poor hair coat, and a \"pot-belly.\" Side effects may also include activation or worsening of hypothyroidism or pancreatitis.</p>\n<p>Immune system suppression may occur at high doses, making a pet more susceptible to infection. Contact your veterinarian if your pet has a fever (over 103° F), painful urination (a sign of urinary tract infection), tiredness, sneezing, coughing, or runny eyes. </p>\n\n<p><strong>How is it stored?</strong><br>\nStore at room temperature, in tight, light resistant, childproof container.</p>\n\n<p><strong>What should I do if I know of or suspect there has been an overdose?</strong><br>\nA short-term overdose is unlikely to cause problems. Chronic, or long-term, overdose is likely to cause signs of Cushing's disease or diabetes mellitus; both diseases commonly cause increased urinating, drinking, and eating. Abruptly stopping long-term treatment may cause signs of Addison's disease, including vomiting, weakness, collapse and sudden death. If you know or suspect your pet has had an overdose, or if you observe any of these signs in your pet, contact your veterinarian immediately.</p>\n\n<p><strong>What should I avoid when giving my pet Prednisone?</strong><br>\nConsult your veterinarian before using prednisone with vitamins and supplements or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) such as aspirin, carprofen (Novox or Rimadyl), deracoxib (Deramaxx), etodolac (EtoGesic), meloxicam (Metacam),firocoxib (Previcox), or tepoxalin (Zubrin). Discuss the use of prednisone with your veterinarian if it will be used along with insulin, modified live vaccines, phenytoin, phenobarbital, rifampin, cyclosporine, estrogens, erythromycin, or mitotane, amphotericin B, furosemide, or thiazide, since interactions may occur.</p>\n<p>Prednisone may cause abnormal levels of hepatic enzymes, thyroid hormone, cholesterol, and potassium in the blood, and can affect many laboratory tests.

Also, discuss what type of outcome is expected. Have your veterinarian explain the other treatment options for hyperthyroidism in cats.\n<p>Tell your veterinarian if your pet has a blood disease, liver disease, or autoimmune disease; or may be pregnant, is nursing, or if you intend to breed your pet. </p>\n<p>Notify your veterinarian of any other medications or supplements your pet is taking, and also if your pet has had any reactions to previous medications.</p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What should I do if I miss a dose?</strong><br>\nIf you miss a dose, give it as soon as you remember.

Methimazole has a very bitter taste.\n\n<p><strong>Who should not take it?</strong><br>\nNot for use in pets who are hypersensitive (allergic) to it. Use with extreme caution in pets with anemia, clotting disorders, bleeding, low white cell and platelet counts, or diseases of the immune system, liver, or kidney.\n\n<p>Use with extreme caution in pregnant or lactating animals (females nursing their young). If the mother is receiving Methimazole, place the young on milk replacer after they have received the colostrum (first milk immediately after birth). </p>\n\n<p>In addition to monitoring of thyroid hormone levels, laboratory tests to check liver and kidney function and blood cell counts may be performed before starting treatment and then regularly thereafter.</p>\n\n\n<p><strong>What side effects may be seen when taking Methimazole?</strong><a id=\"Treat 1\" name=\"Title 1\">\n<a href=\"#Important\">[Back]</a></a><br>\nSide effects tend to occur in the first three months of treatment. If you observe any of the effects listed below, contact your veterinarian immediately. \n<p>May see loss of appetite, vomiting, or lethargy. These usually occur within the first two weeks of treatment and may stop even with continuation of treatment. </p>\n\n<p>Less common side effects include liver problems resulting in the above signs plus yellowing of the gums, skin, or eyes; itching of the face, resulting in scratching; or bleeding tendencies. Your veterinarian will determine if these effects necessitate stopping the medication and treating with surgery or radioactive iodine therapy. </p>\n\n<p>Treatment with Methimazole may unmask hidden kidney disease. </p>\n\n<p>Rarely, you may see the development of myasthenia gravis, a neuromuscular disease that severely weakens muscles and may cause difficulty swallowing. If your pet is unusually tired, has a fever (temperature over 103°F), or shows signs of bruising or bleeding, contact your veterinarian immediately. </p>\n\n<p>If your pet experiences an allergic reaction to the medication, signs may include facial swelling, hives, scratching, and sudden onset of diarrhea, vomiting, shock, seizures, pale gums, cold limbs, or coma. If you observe any of these signs, contact your veterinarian immediately. </p>\n\n<p><strong>How is it stored?</strong><br>\nStore tablets at room temperature in a tightly closed container protected from light. Refrigerate oral suspension. Keep away from children and pets. \n\n<p><strong>What should I do if I know of or suspect there has been an overdose?</strong><br>\nIf you know or suspect your pet has had an overdose, contact your veterinarian immediately. Signs of an overdose are similar to the common side effects listed above.\n\n<p><strong>What should I avoid when giving my pet Methimazole?</strong><br>\nConsult your veterinarian before using Methimazole with any other medications, including vitamins and supplements, since interactions may occur. The drugs clomipramine, amitriptylline, omeprazole, and cyclophosamide may interact with Methimazole and cause severe side effects.\n\n"

"html": "<strong>What is Lysodren?</strong><br>\nLysodren is a prescription medication used to treat pituitary-dependent Cushing's disease (hyperadrenocorticism). It may also be prescribed to treat some of the symptoms of some types of cancer of the adrenal glands.\n<p><strong>Who is it for?</strong><br>\nLysodren is for dogs.\n\n<p><strong>What are the benefits?</strong><br>\n<table cellpadding=\"4\" cellspacing=\"0\" border=\"0\">\n <tr valign=\"top\">\n <td><strong>*</strong></td>\n\t <td>Effectively treats Cushing's disease in dogs</td>\n </tr>\n <tr valign=\"top\">\n <td><strong>*</strong></span></td>\n\t <td>Can be used to ease symptoms of certain types of cancers of the adrenal glands</td>\n </tr>\n <tr valign=\"top\">\n <td><strong>*</strong></td>\n\t <td>Tablets are easily given within a fatty treat or food to increase absorption</td>\n </tr>\n</table></p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How does Lysodren work?</strong><br>\nThe adrenal gland produces steroids (cortisone-like hormones) that have multiple effects in the body. In Cushing's disease and some types of tumors, too many of these steroids are produced. Lysodren acts on the adrenal gland so it produces less of these steroids.\n\n\n<p><strong>Is there a generic equivalent available?</strong><br>\nNo.\n\n<p><strong>How is it given?</strong><br>\nLysodren is given orally, with food, preferably a food high in fat content to increase absorption. Carefully follow your veterinarian's directions as to how it should be given. \n\n<p>Lysodren is usually given at high doses for the first 1-10 days, and then the dose is lowered under the direction of the veterinarian. Your veterinarian will work with you closely to determine when the dose is changed and by how much. This medication should only be given to the pet for whom it was prescribed.</p>\n\n\n<p><strong>What results can I expect?</strong><br>\nEach individual dog responds to Lysodren differently, but the goal of therapy is to decrease the symptoms related to Cushing's disease (increased thirst and appetite, poor hair coat, etc.). In most cases, the therapy needs to be continued for the life of the dog.\n\n\n<p><strong>What form(s) does it come in?</strong><br>\nLysodren comes in tablet form.\n<p>Please click on <strong>\"More Information\"</strong> for possible drug and food interactions with this medication.</p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t<p><strong>Brand Name</strong><br>\nLysodren\n\n<p><strong>Pronunciation</strong><br>\nLye-zoe-drenn\n\n\n<p><strong>Common Drug Name</strong><br>\nMitotane\n\n<p><strong>What should I discuss with my veterinarian while considering Lysodren?</strong><br>\nThe treatment program is based upon the dog's response to the Lysodren, so be sure to understand what signs you should watch for, and when to contact your veterinarian. Understand what type of exams and tests will be necessary while your pet is taking Lysodren. Discuss the risks associated with the treatment and if any additional medications are necessary. \n\n<p>Tell your veterinarian if your dog has liver or kidney disease, diabetes, or could be pregnant. </p>\n\n<p>Notify your veterinarian of any other medications or supplements your pet is taking, and also if your pet has had any reactions to previous medications.</p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What should I do if I miss a dose?</strong><br>\nIf you miss a dose, give it as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for the next dose, skip the one you missed and go back to the regular schedule. Do not give two doses at once.\n\n<p><strong>What is the most important information I should know?</strong><br>\nFully understand your veterinarian's instructions and what side effects of the drug to watch for. \n\n<p>Wear gloves and wash your hands after giving Lysodren to your dog. </p>\n\n\n<p><strong>Who should not take it?</strong><br>\nNot for use in animals hypersensitive (allergic) to it or drugs similar to it. Do not use in pregnant or lactating animals (female animals nursing their young).\n\n<p>Use with caution in animals with liver or kidney disease.</p>\n\n\n<p><strong>What side effects may be seen when taking Lysodren?</strong><br>\nYou may see lethargy, weakness, lack of appetite, vomiting, diarrhea, incoordination, or depression. \n\n<p>May cause liver damage, which could result in loss of appetite and jaundice (yellowing of the gums, skin, or eyes). Consult your veterinarian if you notice any of the above side effects.</p>\n\n<p>As the drug becomes effective, you will notice a decrease in your pet's food and water intake, and urination. </p>\n\n<p>If your pet experiences an allergic reaction to the medication, signs may include facial\nswelling, hives, scratching, sudden onset of diarrhea, vomiting, shock, seizures, pale gums, cold limbs, or coma. If you observe any of these signs, contact your veterinarian immediately. \n</p>\n\n<p><strong>How is it stored?</strong><br>\nStore at room temperature in a tight, light-resistant, childproof container. Keep out of reach of children and pets.\n\n<p><strong>What should I do if I know of or suspect there has been an overdose?</strong><br>\nThe signs of overdose include loss of appetite, vomiting, diarrhea, weakness, depression, or lethargy.\nIf you know or suspect your pet has had an overdose, or if you observe any of these signs in your pet, contact your veterinarian immediately.\n\n\n<p><strong>What should I avoid when giving my pet Lysodren?</strong><br>\nPregnant women or women trying to get pregnant should not handle this medication. Wear gloves when handling this medication. Wash hands after handling the medication. It can be very toxic.\nDo not allow Lysodren to enter the environment through the soil or water. Any leftover drug should be returned to your veterinarian for disposal.\n\n<p>Consult your veterinarian before using with any other medications, including vitamins and supplements, prednisone, prednisolone, barbiturates, warfarin, phenobarbital, or spironolactone, since interactions may occur.</p>\n\n<p>May see an increase in depressant effects if given with other central nervous system (CNS) depressants.\nStarting therapy with this drug may cause a rapid change in the insulin requirement of diabetic animals.\n</p>\n\n"

Clemastine belongs to a group of antihistamines called H1 blockers.\n\n<p><strong>Is there a generic equivalent available?</strong><br>\nClemastine is a generic medication.\n\n<p><strong>How is it given?</strong><br>\nClemastine is given by mouth. Duration of treatment depends on the reason for and response to treatment. Always follow the dosage instructions provided by your veterinarian. If you have difficulty giving the medication, contact your veterinarian. This medication should only be given to the pet for whom it was prescribed.\n\n<p><strong>What results can I expect?</strong><br>\nClemastine will not cure allergies, but can help reduce the symptoms. The effects will disappear if the medication is discontinued.\n\n<p><strong>What form(s) does it come in?</strong><br>\nTablet\n<p>Please click on <strong>\"More Information\"</strong> for possible drug and food interactions with this medication.</p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t<p><strong>Brand Name</strong><br>\nTavist\n\n<p><strong>Pronunciation</strong><br>\nKLEM-as-teen\n\n\n<p><strong>Common Drug Name</strong><br>\nClemastine fumarate.\n\n<p><strong>What should I discuss with my veterinarian while considering Clemastine?</strong><br>\n\nTalk to your veterinarian about what tests and exams may be necessary while your pet is taking Clemastine. Also discuss how long the treatment period will be and what type of outcome is expected. You and your veterinarian should talk about any other treatment options that are recommended for your pet.\n\n<p>Tell your veterinarian if your pet has prostate disease, urinary obstruction, heart disease, glaucoma, or gastrointestinal obstruction, is pregnant or may be used for breeding.</p>\n\n<p>Notify your veterinarian of any other medications or supplements your pet is taking. Also if your pet has had any reactions to previous medications.</p>\n\n\n<p><strong>What should I do if I miss a dose?</strong><br>\nIf you miss a dose, give it as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for the next dose, skip the one you missed and go back to the regular schedule. Do not give two doses at once.\n\n<p><strong>What is the most important information I should know?</strong><br>\nClemastine is not a cure, and symptoms will return if the Clemastine is discontinued. This medication may cause sedation.\n\n<p><strong>Who should not take it?</strong><br>\nNot for use in animals hypersensitive (allergic) to it. Use with caution in animals with glaucoma, enlarged prostate, severe cardiac failure, or obstruction of the urinary bladder (problems urinating), or obstruction of the pylorus (junction between the stomach and intestine). Do not use in working animals (military dogs, police dogs, seeing eye dogs, hearing dogs, etc.) as it may cause too much sedation. Clemastine may enter the milk and have adverse effects on the young.\n\n<p><strong>What side effects may be seen when taking Clemastine?</strong><br>\nDogs: Side effects include dry mouth, sleepiness, sedation, or hyperexcitability.<br>\nCats: Most common side effect is diarrhea.\n\n\n<p><strong>How is it stored?</strong><br>\nStore in a tight, light-resistant, childproof container at room temperature. Keep out of reach of children and pets.\n\n<p><strong>What should I do if I know of or suspect there has been an overdose?</strong><br>\nIf you know or suspect your pet has had an overdose, contact your veterinarian immediately.\n\n<p><strong>What should I avoid when giving my pet Clemastine?</strong><br>\nConsult your veterinarian before using Clemastine with vitamins and supplements, other central nervous system (CNS) depressant drugs such as barbiturates or antidepressants, monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs), such as furazolidine, selegiline (Anipryl), isoniazid, or amitraz (an ingredient in some tick collars, and in Mitaban, a treatment for mange), or flea and tick collars, since interactions may occur.\n\n"

The tablet form is very bitter, and it may be difficult to administer. Use a \"pill pocket\" treat or hide it in your pet's favorite treat. Always follow the dosage instructions provided by your veterinarian. If you have difficulty giving the medication, contact your veterinarian.\n\n\n<p>Blood levels of thyroid hormone will be checked by your veterinarian at regular intervals, and the dose increased or decreased as needed. The lowest effective dose should be used.</p>\n\nThis medication should only be given to the pet for whom it was prescribed.\n\n\n<p><strong>What results can I expect?</strong><br>\nIn most cases methimazole will lower the level of thyroid hormone in hyperthyroid cats. It will generally take 1-3 weeks before the level of thyroid hormone produced by the body will start to decrease.

"html": "<strong>What is Prednisone?</strong><br>\nPrednisone reduces inflammation and is also used to suppress the actions of the immune system. It is used in the treatment of autoimmune diseases such as lupus or pemphigus, autoimmune hemolytic anemias, asthma and inhalant allergies (atopy), cancers, brain swelling, certain types of colitis, certain kidney diseases, and Addison's disease.</p>\n<p><strong>Who is it for?</strong><br>\nPrednisone is for dogs and cats.</p>\n\n<p><strong>What are the benefits?</strong><br>\n<table cellpadding=\"4\" cellspacing=\"0\" border=\"0\">\n <tr valign=\"top\">\n <td><strong>*</strong></td>\n\t <td>Prednisone is a powerful anti-inflammatory medication that treats inflammation from allergies and more</td>\n </tr>\n <tr valign=\"top\">\n <td><strong>*</strong></td>\n\t <td>Also helps treat auto-immune diseases, and certain types of brain swelling and cancers</td>\n </tr>\n <tr valign=\"top\">\n <td><strong>*</strong></td>\n\t <td>It is used to treat Addison's disease, in which the body does not produce enough corticosteroids</td>\n </tr>\n\t <tr valign=\"top\">\n <td><strong>*</strong></td>\n\t <td>Oral dosage regimen can be effectively individualized for your pet by your veterinarian</td>\n </tr>\n</table></p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How does Prednisone work?</strong><br>\nPrednisone has an effect on virtually every organ system in the body. Prednisone is a corticosteroid that blocks the production of substances that trigger allergic and inflammatory actions. Prednisone is used to modify the body's immune response. At lower doses it helps to reduce inflammation by decreasing the activity of certain cells and chemicals produced by the body that cause inflammation. At higher doses, it can suppress the immune system by decreasing the number of cells necessary for a proper immune response.</p>\n\n\n<p><strong>Is there a generic equivalent available?</strong><br>\nPrednisone is the common drug name and there are multiple generic equivalents available.</p>\n\n<p><strong>How is it given?</strong><br>\nPrednisone is an oral tablet, given by mouth. It may be given with food to avoid stomach upset. Always follow the dosage instructions provided by your veterinarian. If you have difficulties giving the medication, contact your veterinarian. Dosage depends on the product used. Your veterinarian may recommend starting at a higher dose and then reducing the dose every few days to a week. If on long-term therapy, do not discontinue the drug abruptly. The dose needs to be tapered off over several days to weeks to allow the body to start making its own cortisol again. This medication should only be given to the pet for which it was prescribed.</p>\n\n<p><strong>What results can I expect?</strong><br>\nWhen used to treat inflammatory conditions, such as allergies, the success rate is very good and improvements can be seen in several days. If the Prednisone is stopped, signs of the disease may reappear. Autoimmune diseases and cancers are more difficult to treat and the success rate will depend on the type and severity of the condition.</p>\n\n\n<p><strong>What form(s) does it come in?</strong><br>\nPrednisone comes in an oral tablet form. </p>\n\n<p>Please click on <strong>\"More Information\"</strong> for possible drug and food interactions with this medication.</p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<p><strong>Brand Name</strong><br>\nThere are no veterinary brand names for prednisone tablets. There are multiple human brand names including Mericorten, Deltasone, and Sterapred.</p>\n\n<p><strong>Pronunciation</strong><br>\nPRED-ni-zone</p>\n\n<p><strong>Common Drug Name</strong><br>\nPrednisone</p>\n\n<p><strong>What should I discuss with my veterinarian while considering Prednisone?</strong><br>\nAsk your veterinarian what dose will provide the most benefit while minimizing any side effects. Also discuss how long the treatment period will be and what type of outcome is expected. You and your veterinarian should talk about any other treatment options that are recommended for your pet.</p>\n<p>Tell your veterinarian if your pet has diabetes; stomach ulcers; Cushings disease; a bacterial, viral or fungal infection; heart, liver or kidney disease; may be pregnant or is nursing, or if you intend to breed your dog.</p>\n<p>Notify your veterinarian of any other medications or supplements your dog is taking. Also if your dog has had any reactions to previous medications.</p>\n\n<p><strong>What should I do if I miss a dose?</strong><br>\nSince dosage regimens differ greatly, if you miss a dose, contact your veterinarian to determine when to give the next dose.</p>\n\n<p><strong>What is the most important information I should know?</strong><br>\nSide effects can be minimized by tailoring the treatment regimen for your pet's specific condition. You will need to work closely with your veterinarian to determine the proper dose. If used long-term, this medication should not be stopped abruptly. The dose needs to be tapered over a course of time as determined by your veterinarian.</p>\n\n<p><strong>Who should not take it?</strong><br>\nNot for use in animals with systemic fungal infections, some types of mange (mites), stomach ulcers, Cushing's disease, high blood pressure, kidney disease, or congestive heart failure. Do not use in pregnant animals. It may cause premature birth and birth defects in some animals. Predisone may stunt growth if used in young, growing animals or is given to nursing mothers.</p>\n\n<p><strong>What side effects may be seen when taking Prednisone?</strong><br>\n<p>Side effects are usually dose dependent. If side effects occur, contact your veterinarian, who may decrease the dosage, frequency, or type of corticosteroid. </p>\n<p>The most common side effects are increased appetite, drinking, and urination. Your pet may have more \"accidents\" and need to go outside or use the litter box more often. Less common side effects include weight gain, panting, diarrhea, vomiting, and behavior changes. </p>\n<p>Side effects of daily long-term use include muscle loss, weakness, and the development of diabetes or hyperadrenocorticism (Cushing's disease). The typical signs of these diseases are increased thirst, urination, and appetite. Animals with Cushing's disease may also develop thin skin, a poor hair coat, and a \"pot-belly.\" Side effects may also include activation or worsening of hypothyroidism or pancreatitis.</p>\n<p>Immune system suppression may occur at high doses, making a pet more susceptible to infection. Contact your veterinarian if your pet has a fever (over 103° F), painful urination (a sign of urinary tract infection), tiredness, sneezing, coughing, or runny eyes. </p>\n\n<p><strong>How is it stored?</strong><br>\nStore at room temperature, in tight, light resistant, childproof container.</p>\n\n<p><strong>What should I do if I know of or suspect there has been an overdose?</strong><br>\nA short-term overdose is unlikely to cause problems. Chronic, or long-term, overdose is likely to cause signs of Cushing's disease or diabetes mellitus; both diseases commonly cause increased urinating, drinking, and eating. Abruptly stopping long-term treatment may cause signs of Addison's disease, including vomiting, weakness, collapse and sudden death. If you know or suspect your pet has had an overdose, or if you observe any of these signs in your pet, contact your veterinarian immediately.</p>\n\n<p><strong>What should I avoid when giving my pet Prednisone?</strong><br>\nConsult your veterinarian before using prednisone with vitamins and supplements or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) such as aspirin, carprofen (Novox or Rimadyl), deracoxib (Deramaxx), etodolac (EtoGesic), meloxicam (Metacam),firocoxib (Previcox), or tepoxalin (Zubrin). Discuss the use of prednisone with your veterinarian if it will be used along with insulin, modified live vaccines, phenytoin, phenobarbital, rifampin, cyclosporine, estrogens, erythromycin, or mitotane, amphotericin B, furosemide, or thiazide, since interactions may occur.</p>\n<p>Prednisone may cause abnormal levels of hepatic enzymes, thyroid hormone, cholesterol, and potassium in the blood, and can affect many laboratory tests. Make sure your veterinarian knows your pet is taking Prednisone prior to any testing.</p>\n\n"

"html": "<strong>What is K BroVet?</strong><br>\nK BroVet is a prescription medication used in the treatment of seizures in dogs. The active ingredient is potassium bromide.\n<p><strong>Who is it for?</strong><br>\nK BroVet is labeled for use in dogs.\n\n<p><strong>What are the benefits?</strong><br>\n<table cellpadding=\"4\" cellspacing=\"0\" border=\"0\">\n <tr valign=\"top\">\n <td><strong>*</strong></td>\n\t <td>Anticonvulsant used in the treatment of seizures </td>\n </tr>\n <tr valign=\"top\">\n <td><strong>*</strong></span></td>\n\t <td>Can be used in combination with other anti-seizure medications as prescribed by your veterinarian</td>\n </tr>\n <tr valign=\"top\">\n <td><strong>*</strong></td>\n\t <td>Comes in two flavored forms for easy administration</td>\n </tr>\n</table></p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How does K BroVet work?</strong><br>\nThe potassium bromide in K BroVet works at the cellular level to decrease seizure activity by depressing nerve activity and excitability. \n\n\n<p><strong>Is there a generic equivalent available?</strong><br>\nNo.\n\n<p><strong>How is it given?</strong><br>\nK BroVet is given by mouth. Giving with food may decrease some side effects. The first doses may be larger than subsequent doses. Always follow the dosage instructions provided by your veterinarian. It is vital that you not miss a dose and that you give the medication exactly as your veterinarian prescribes. \n<p>If you have difficulty giving the medication, contact your veterinarian.</p>\n<p>This medication should only be given to the pet for whom it was prescribed.</p>\n\n\n<p><strong>What results can I expect?</strong><br>\nK BroVet, like all other medications for epilepsy and seizures, will not cure the disease. While taking K BroVet your pet will probably continue to have seizures but they will generally occur less frequently and be less severe. \n\n\n<p><strong>What form(s) does it come in?</strong><br>\nThis medication comes in a flavored liquid or flavored tablet form. \n<p>Please click on <strong>\"More Information\"</strong> for possible drug and food interactions with this medication.</p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t<p><strong>Pronunciation</strong><br>\nkay-broh-vet \n\n\n<p><strong>Common Drug Name</strong><br>\nPotassium Bromide \n\n<p><strong>What should I discuss with my veterinarian while considering BroVet?</strong><br>\nTalk to your veterinarian about what tests and exams may be necessary while your pet is taking K BroVet. Also discuss how long the treatment period will be and what type of outcome is expected. \n<p>Tell your veterinarian if your pet has kidney disease, may be pregnant or is nursing, or if you intend to breed your pet.</p>\n<p>Notify your veterinarian of any other medications or supplements your pet is taking, and also if your pet has had any reactions to previous medications.</p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What should I do if I miss a dose?</strong><br>\nIt is important that you DO NOT miss a dose of this medication. Missing a dose could cause a seizure. If you miss a dose, give it as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for the next dose, skip the one you missed and go back to the regular schedule. Do not give two doses at once. \n\n<p><strong>What is the most important information I should know?</strong><br>\nK BroVet, like all other medications for epilepsy and seizures, will not cure the disease. While taking K BroVet, your pet will probably continue to have seizures but they will generally occur less frequently and be less severe. Keep a journal of when your pet has seizures, how long they last, if they are related to any other event, etc. This will help monitor the effectiveness of the K BroVet. \n<p>Your pet may need periodic blood tests while taking K BroVet.</p>\n<p>Do not miss a dose and try to give the K BroVet at the same time every day.</p>\n<p>Contact your veterinarian if you notice any side effects.</p>\n\n\n<p><strong>Who should not take it?</strong><br>\nNot for use in animals hypersensitive (allergic) to it. The safety of this drug in pregnant or lactating animals (female animals nursing their young) has not been determined. Use with extreme caution in these animals. \n<p>Use with caution in animals with kidney disease, older animals, and those with other health problems.</p>\n\n\n<p><strong>What side effects may be seen when taking K BroVet?</strong><br>\nSide effects most often include transient sedation (drowsiness), especially when used with phenobarbital. This may last several weeks. May also see changes in appetite, vomiting, constipation, or personality changes. Other side effects include increased thirst, drinking, and urination. \n<p>Consult your veterinarian if you notice any of the above side effects.</p>\n<p>When giving high doses, may see severe vomiting, muscle pain, twitching, staggering, an inability to use one or more limbs, or pupils of different sizes. If you observe any of these signs, contact your veterinarian immediately.</p>\n<p>Potassium bromide, when used in conjunction with phenobarbital, has been associated with the development of pancreatitis, with signs that include loss of appetite, abdominal pain, and vomiting. </p>\n<p>If your pet experiences an allergic reaction to the medication, signs may include facial swelling, hives, scratching, sudden onset of diarrhea, vomiting, shock, seizures, pale gums, cold limbs, or coma. If you observe any of these signs, contact your veterinarian immediately.</p>\n\n\n<p><strong>How is it stored?</strong><br>\nStore at room temperature in a tight, light-resistant, childproof container. Keep out of reach of children and pets. \n\n<p><strong>What should I do if I know of or suspect there has been an overdose?</strong><br>\nOverdosing is more likely seen from chronic overdosing than with a single large dose. Signs may include extreme sedation, loss of appetite, vomiting, diarrhea, muscle pain or twitching, staggering, inability to use one or more limbs, drooling, decreased/slow reflexes, pupils of different sizes, tremors, and other central nervous system (CNS) symptoms. \n<p>If you know or suspect your pet has had an overdose, or if you observe any of these signs in your pet, contact your veterinarian immediately.</p>\n<p><strong>What should I avoid when giving my pet K BroVet?</strong><br>\nConsult your veterinarian before using K BroVet with vitamins, supplements, diuretics (e.g., furosemide, Lasix), or drugs that affect the nervous system (e.g. sedatives), since interactions may occur. Salt intake needs to remain steady since chloride levels in the blood can affect the levels of bromide. Do not restrict salt intake or give salty foods or treats (e.g., pig ears) while your pet is receiving K BroVet. Contact your veterinarian before changing diets or types of treats. \n\n"

"html": "<strong>What is Ketoconazole?</strong><br>\nKetoconazole is used for the treatment of serious fungal infections. It may also be used against some yeast and dermatophyte (ringworm) infections.\n<p><strong>Who is it for?</strong><br>\nDogs, birds, reptiles, ferrets, rabbits, and other small mammals. The use of Ketoconazole in cats is controversial because of its potential for toxicity in that species.\n\n<p><strong>What are the benefits?</strong><br>\n<table cellpadding=\"4\" cellspacing=\"0\" border=\"0\">\n <tr valign=\"top\">\n <td><strong>*</strong></td>\n\t <td>Treats internal and external fungal infections</td>\n </tr>\n <tr valign=\"top\">\n <td><strong>*</strong></span></td>\n\t <td>Also useful in the treatment of some yeast and ringworm infections and Cushing's Disease (hyperadrenocorticism) </td>\n </tr>\n <tr valign=\"top\">\n <td><strong>*</strong></td>\n\t <td>Cost-effective generic</td>\n </tr>\n</table></p>\n<p><strong>How does Ketoconazole work?</strong><br>\nIt is believed that Ketoconazole works on the cell membrane of the fungus or yeast to slow their growth or to kill them. It can also block the production of corticosteroids by the adrenal gland, which is the reason it may be used to treat Cushing's disease.\n<p><strong>Is there a generic equivalent available?</strong><br>\nYes.\n<p><strong>How is it given?</strong><br>\nKetoconazole is given orally. If you have difficulty giving the medication, contact your veterinarian. This medication should only be given to the pet for which it was prescribed.\n\n<p><strong>What results can I expect?</strong><br>\nIt generally takes a number of weeks to effectively treat a fungal or yeast infection, however some improvement may be seen in 1-2 weeks. If doses are missed or the entire treatment regimen is not completed, symptoms could recur or worsen, even if your pet appears to feel better. Consult your veterinarian if the animal's condition does not improve or worsens after beginning treatment with Ketoconazole.\n\n<p><strong>What form(s) does it come in?</strong><br>\nTablet\n<p>Please click on <strong>\"More Information\"</strong> for possible drug and food interactions with this medication.</p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t<p><strong>Brand Name</strong><br>\nNizoral\n\n<p><strong>Pronunciation</strong><br>\nkee-toe-KAH-na-zole\n<p><strong>Common Drug Name</strong><br>\nKetoconazole\n\n<p><strong>What should I discuss with my veterinarian while considering Ketoconazole?</strong><br>\nTalk to your veterinarian about what type of outcome is expected.

If it is almost time for the next dose, skip the one you missed and go back to the regular schedule.

Consult your veterinarian if the animal's condition does not improve or worsens after beginning treatment with Ketoconazole.\n\n<p><strong>Who should not take it?</strong><br>\nKetoconazole is not for use in animals hypersensitive (allergic) to it. Not for use in pregnant or lactating animals (female animals nursing their young) and may cause infertility in males. Ketoconazole is also for use in animals with liver disease or clotting problems.\n\n<p><strong>What side effects may be seen when taking Ketoconazole?</strong><br>\nMay see lack of appetite, vomiting, diarrhea, or liver toxicity (jaundice - yellowing of gums, skin or eyes) or bleeding problems. Consult your veterinarian if you notice any of these.\n\n<p>May see a reversible lightening of the haircoat.</p>\n\n<p>Signs of an allergic reaction may include facial swelling, hives, scratching, sudden onset of diarrhea, vomiting, shock, seizures, pale gums, cold limbs, or coma. If you observe any of these signs, contact your veterinarian immediately.</p>\n\n<p><strong>How is it stored?</strong><br>\nStore in a tight, light-resistant, childproof container at room temperature. Keep out of reach of children and pets.\n\n<p><strong>What should I do if I know of or suspect there has been an overdose?</strong><br>\nIf you know or suspect your pet has had an overdose, contact your veterinarian immediately.\n\n<p><strong>What should I avoid when giving my pet Ketoconazole?</strong><br>\nConsult your veterinarian before using Ketoconazole with any other medications, including vitamins and supplements, antacids, antidepressants, Mitotane, cisapride, astemizole, terfenadine, digoxin, warfarin or other anticoagulants, hypoglycemic agents, theophylline, cyclosporine, corticosteroids, and many others since interactions may occur.\n\n<p>Do not give with antacids or other products that alkalinize the stomach pH level.

"html": "<strong>What is Prednisone?</strong><br>\nPrednisone reduces inflammation and is also used to suppress the actions of the immune system. It is used in the treatment of autoimmune diseases such as lupus or pemphigus, autoimmune hemolytic anemias, asthma and inhalant allergies (atopy), cancers, brain swelling, certain types of colitis, certain kidney diseases, and Addison's disease.</p>\n<p><strong>Who is it for?</strong><br>\nPrednisone is for dogs and cats.</p>\n\n<p><strong>What are the benefits?</strong><br>\n<table cellpadding=\"4\" cellspacing=\"0\" border=\"0\">\n <tr valign=\"top\">\n <td><strong>*</strong></td>\n\t <td>Prednisone is a powerful anti-inflammatory medication that treats inflammation from allergies and more</td>\n </tr>\n <tr valign=\"top\">\n <td><strong>*</strong></td>\n\t <td>Also helps treat auto-immune diseases, and certain types of brain swelling and cancers</td>\n </tr>\n <tr valign=\"top\">\n <td><strong>*</strong></td>\n\t <td>It is used to treat Addison's disease, in which the body does not produce enough corticosteroids</td>\n </tr>\n\t <tr valign=\"top\">\n <td><strong>*</strong></td>\n\t <td>Oral dosage regimen can be effectively individualized for your pet by your veterinarian</td>\n </tr>\n</table></p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How does Prednisone work?</strong><br>\nPrednisone has an effect on virtually every organ system in the body. Prednisone is a corticosteroid that blocks the production of substances that trigger allergic and inflammatory actions. Prednisone is used to modify the body's immune response. At lower doses it helps to reduce inflammation by decreasing the activity of certain cells and chemicals produced by the body that cause inflammation. At higher doses, it can suppress the immune system by decreasing the number of cells necessary for a proper immune response.</p>\n\n\n<p><strong>Is there a generic equivalent available?</strong><br>\nPrednisone is the common drug name and there are multiple generic equivalents available.</p>\n\n<p><strong>How is it given?</strong><br>\nPrednisone is an oral tablet, given by mouth. It may be given with food to avoid stomach upset. Always follow the dosage instructions provided by your veterinarian. If you have difficulties giving the medication, contact your veterinarian. Dosage depends on the product used. Your veterinarian may recommend starting at a higher dose and then reducing the dose every few days to a week. If on long-term therapy, do not discontinue the drug abruptly. The dose needs to be tapered off over several days to weeks to allow the body to start making its own cortisol again. This medication should only be given to the pet for which it was prescribed.</p>\n\n<p><strong>What results can I expect?</strong><br>\nWhen used to treat inflammatory conditions, such as allergies, the success rate is very good and improvements can be seen in several days. If the Prednisone is stopped, signs of the disease may reappear. Autoimmune diseases and cancers are more difficult to treat and the success rate will depend on the type and severity of the condition.</p>\n\n\n<p><strong>What form(s) does it come in?</strong><br>\nPrednisone comes in an oral tablet form. </p>\n\n<p>Please click on <strong>\"More Information\"</strong> for possible drug and food interactions with this medication.</p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<p><strong>Brand Name</strong><br>\nThere are no veterinary brand names for prednisone tablets. There are multiple human brand names including Mericorten, Deltasone, and Sterapred.</p>\n\n<p><strong>Pronunciation</strong><br>\nPRED-ni-zone</p>\n\n<p><strong>Common Drug Name</strong><br>\nPrednisone</p>\n\n<p><strong>What should I discuss with my veterinarian while considering Prednisone?</strong><br>\nAsk your veterinarian what dose will provide the most benefit while minimizing any side effects. Also discuss how long the treatment period will be and what type of outcome is expected. You and your veterinarian should talk about any other treatment options that are recommended for your pet.</p>\n<p>Tell your veterinarian if your pet has diabetes; stomach ulcers; Cushings disease; a bacterial, viral or fungal infection; heart, liver or kidney disease; may be pregnant or is nursing, or if you intend to breed your dog.</p>\n<p>Notify your veterinarian of any other medications or supplements your dog is taking. Also if your dog has had any reactions to previous medications.</p>\n\n<p><strong>What should I do if I miss a dose?</strong><br>\nSince dosage regimens differ greatly, if you miss a dose, contact your veterinarian to determine when to give the next dose.</p>\n\n<p><strong>What is the most important information I should know?</strong><br>\nSide effects can be minimized by tailoring the treatment regimen for your pet's specific condition. You will need to work closely with your veterinarian to determine the proper dose. If used long-term, this medication should not be stopped abruptly. The dose needs to be tapered over a course of time as determined by your veterinarian.</p>\n\n<p><strong>Who should not take it?</strong><br>\nNot for use in animals with systemic fungal infections, some types of mange (mites), stomach ulcers, Cushing's disease, high blood pressure, kidney disease, or congestive heart failure. Do not use in pregnant animals. It may cause premature birth and birth defects in some animals. Predisone may stunt growth if used in young, growing animals or is given to nursing mothers.</p>\n\n<p><strong>What side effects may be seen when taking Prednisone?</strong><br>\n<p>Side effects are usually dose dependent. If side effects occur, contact your veterinarian, who may decrease the dosage, frequency, or type of corticosteroid. </p>\n<p>The most common side effects are increased appetite, drinking, and urination. Your pet may have more \"accidents\" and need to go outside or use the litter box more often. Less common side effects include weight gain, panting, diarrhea, vomiting, and behavior changes. </p>\n<p>Side effects of daily long-term use include muscle loss, weakness, and the development of diabetes or hyperadrenocorticism (Cushing's disease). The typical signs of these diseases are increased thirst, urination, and appetite. Animals with Cushing's disease may also develop thin skin, a poor hair coat, and a \"pot-belly.\" Side effects may also include activation or worsening of hypothyroidism or pancreatitis.</p>\n<p>Immune system suppression may occur at high doses, making a pet more susceptible to infection. Contact your veterinarian if your pet has a fever (over 103° F), painful urination (a sign of urinary tract infection), tiredness, sneezing, coughing, or runny eyes. </p>\n\n<p><strong>How is it stored?</strong><br>\nStore at room temperature, in tight, light resistant, childproof container.</p>\n\n<p><strong>What should I do if I know of or suspect there has been an overdose?</strong><br>\nA short-term overdose is unlikely to cause problems. Chronic, or long-term, overdose is likely to cause signs of Cushing's disease or diabetes mellitus; both diseases commonly cause increased urinating, drinking, and eating. Abruptly stopping long-term treatment may cause signs of Addison's disease, including vomiting, weakness, collapse and sudden death. If you know or suspect your pet has had an overdose, or if you observe any of these signs in your pet, contact your veterinarian immediately.</p>\n\n<p><strong>What should I avoid when giving my pet Prednisone?</strong><br>\nConsult your veterinarian before using prednisone with vitamins and supplements or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) such as aspirin, carprofen (Novox or Rimadyl), deracoxib (Deramaxx), etodolac (EtoGesic), meloxicam (Metacam),firocoxib (Previcox), or tepoxalin (Zubrin). Discuss the use of prednisone with your veterinarian if it will be used along with insulin, modified live vaccines, phenytoin, phenobarbital, rifampin, cyclosporine, estrogens, erythromycin, or mitotane, amphotericin B, furosemide, or thiazide, since interactions may occur.</p>\n<p>Prednisone may cause abnormal levels of hepatic enzymes, thyroid hormone, cholesterol, and potassium in the blood, and can affect many laboratory tests. Make sure your veterinarian knows your pet is taking Prednisone prior to any testing.</p>\n\n"

In some cases, your veterinarian may determine that the medication can be stopped when the behavior improves. </p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How does Amitriptyline work?</strong><br>\n\nAmitriptyline is a tricyclic antidepressant prescribed to treat certain pet anxiety disorders. Tricyclic antidepressants (TCA) work in the brain by changing the normal function of the chemicals serotonin and norepinephrine, which help communication between nerves. Use Amitriptyline in conjunction with behavior modification exercises for the most effective approach to treat anxiety and other pet behavior disorders.\n\n<p><strong>Is there a generic equivalent available?</strong><br>\nThis is a generic medication. \n\n<p><strong>How is it given?</strong><br>\nAmitriptyline tablets are given by mouth. Always follow the dosage instructions provided by your veterinarian. If you have difficulty giving the medication, contact your veterinarian.\n<p>Do not suddenly stop giving the medication unless advised by your veterinarian. </p>\n\n<p>This medication should only be given to the pet for whom it was prescribed.</p>\n\n\n<p><strong>What results can I expect?</strong><br>\nAmitriptyline, by itself, may not cure a behavior problem, but will help manage the symptoms. It should be used in combination with techniques to try to change the unwanted behavior. It generally takes several weeks to reach an effective level in the body.\n\n\n<p><strong>What form(s) does it come in?</strong><br>\nTablets\n\t<p>Please click on <strong>\"More Information\"</strong> for possible drug and food interactions with this medication.</p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\n\n<p><strong>Brand Name</strong><br>\nElavil\n\n<p><strong>Pronunciation</strong><br>\nELA-vil<br>\nA-ME-trip-ta-lean\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Common Drug Name</strong><br>\nAmitriptyline\n\n<p><strong>What should I discuss with my veterinarian while considering Amitriptyline?</strong><br>\nAmitriptyline should be used in conjunction with techniques to try to change the unwanted behavior. Discuss, in detail, what behavior modification techniques will work on your pet. Also discuss how long the treatment period will be and what type of outcome is expected. You and your veterinarian should talk about any other treatment options that are recommended for your pet. \n<p>Tell your veterinarian if your pet has had seizures, or has diabetes, liver disease, thyroid disease, heart disease, glaucoma, \"dry eye\", or adrenal tumors. Also tell your veterinarian if your pet may be pregnant, is nursing, or if you intend to breed your pet. </p>\n<p>Notify your veterinarian of any other medications or supplements your pet is taking, especially selegiline (Anipryl) or amitraz (Preventic tick collars or Mitaban), and if your pet has had any reactions to previous medications.</p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What should I do if I miss a dose?</strong><br>\nIf you miss a dose, give it as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for the next dose, skip the one you missed and go back to the regular schedule. Do not give two doses at once. \n\n<p><strong>What is the most important information I should know?</strong><br>\nTo be most effective, Amitriptyline needs to be used in combination with behavior modification techniques.\n\n<p>Consult your veterinarian before using other medications or tick collars along with Amitriptyline.</p>\n<p>Contact your veterinarian immediately if your pet has a seizure while taking Amitriptyline.</p>\n\n\n<p><strong>Who should not take it?</strong><br>\nDo not use in animals hypersensitive (allergic) to tricyclic antidepressants. Use with extreme caution in animals with seizure disorders/epilepsy, diabetes mellitus, liver disease, or heart disease. Do not use in pregnant or lactating animals (female animals nursing their young) unless the benefits outweigh the risks. This medication should only be given to the pet for which it was prescribed.\n\n<p><strong>What side effects may be seen when taking Amitriptyline?</strong><br>\nDogs: May see an increase in excitability or sedation; lack of appetite, vomiting, constipation, or diarrhea; increased appetite and weight gain; increased water consumption, caused by dry mouth; abnormal heart rhythms, which may cause weakness or collapse; bone marrow suppression with anemia, causing weakness and pale gums; or low platelets, causing an increased tendency to bruise or bleed.\n\n<p>Cats: May see drooling, sedation, urinary retention, loss of appetite, vomiting, constipation; increased appetite and weight gain; increased water consumption, caused by dry mouth; unkempt hair coat; incoordination, disorientation; abnormal heart rhythms, which may cause weakness or collapse; or low platelets, causing an increased tendency to bruise or bleed.</p>\n\n\n<p><strong>How is it stored?</strong><br>\nStore at room temperature in a tight, light-resistant, childproof container. Keep out of reach of children and pets.\n\n<p><strong>What should I do if I know of or suspect there has been an overdose?</strong><br>\nIf you know or suspect your pet has had an overdose, contact your veterinarian immediately. An overdose can be life-threatening. \n\n<p><strong>What should I avoid when giving my pet Amitriptyline?</strong><br>\nConsult your veterinarian before using Amitriptyline with vitamins, supplements, ephedrine, monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs) such as selegiline (deprenyl, Anipryl) or amitraz (an ingredient in some tick collars, and in Mitaban, a treatment for mange), anticholinergic medications (atropine), central nervous system (CNS) depressants, or sympathomimetic agents like phenylpropanolamine (Proin, Cystolamine), methimazole, or other antithyroid drugs, or cimetidine, since interactions may occur.\n\n"

"html": "<strong>What is Methimazole?</strong><br>\nMethimazole treats hyperthyroidism in cats, a condition in which too much thyroid hormone is produced. It will not cure the disease, but will usually control it if given for the rest of the cat's life. \n\n<p>Methimazole may also be used to protect the kidneys in dogs receiving cisplatin, an anti-cancer drug.</p>\n\n<p><strong>Who is it for?</strong><br>\nDogs and Cats\n\n<p><strong>What are the benefits?</strong><br>\n<table cellpadding=\"4\" cellspacing=\"0\" border=\"0\">\n <tr valign=\"top\">\n <td><strong>*</strong></td>\n\t <td>Controls the symptoms of hyperthyroidism for an improved quality of life</td>\n </tr>\n <tr valign=\"top\">\n <td><strong>*</strong></span></td>\n\t <td>Treats hyperthyroidism without surgery or anesthesia </td>\n </tr>\n <tr valign=\"top\">\n <td><strong>*</strong></td>\n\t <td>Affordable per-tablet price!</td>\n </tr>\n</table></p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How does Methimazole work?</strong><br>\nMethimazole reduces the amount of thyroid hormone produced by the thyroid gland.\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How is it given?</strong><br>\nMethimazole tablets are given by mouth. The tablet form is very bitter, and it may be difficult to administer. Use a \"pill pocket\" treat or hide it in your pet's favorite treat. Always follow the dosage instructions provided by your veterinarian. If you have difficulty giving the medication, contact your veterinarian.\n\n\n<p>Blood levels of thyroid hormone will be checked by your veterinarian at regular intervals, and the dose increased or decreased as needed. The lowest effective dose should be used.</p>\n\nThis medication should only be given to the pet for whom it was prescribed.\n\n\n<p><strong>What results can I expect?</strong><br>\nIn most cases methimazole will lower the level of thyroid hormone in hyperthyroid cats. It will generally take 1-3 weeks before the level of thyroid hormone produced by the body will start to decrease. Methimazole will not cure the disease, but will usually control it if given for the rest of the cat's life. \n\n\n<p><strong>What form(s) does it come in?</strong><br>\nTablet form\n<p>Please click on <strong>\"More Information\"</strong> for possible drug and food interactions with this medication.</p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t<p><strong>Brand Name</strong><br>\nTapazol\n\n<p><strong>Pronunciation</strong><br>\nmeth-EYE-miz-zal\n\n\n<p><strong>Common Drug Name</strong><br>\nMethimazole\n\n<p><strong>What should I discuss with my veterinarian while considering Methimazole?</strong><br>\nTalk to your veterinarian about what tests and exams may be necessary while your pet is taking Methimazole. Also, discuss what type of outcome is expected.

Use with extreme caution in pets with anemia, clotting disorders, bleeding, low white cell and platelet counts, or diseases of the immune system, liver, or kidney.\n\n<p>Use with extreme caution in pregnant or lactating animals (females nursing their young). If the mother is receiving Methimazole, place the young on milk replacer after they have received the colostrum (first milk immediately after birth). </p>\n\n<p>In addition to monitoring of thyroid hormone levels, laboratory tests to check liver and kidney function and blood cell counts may be performed before starting treatment and then regularly thereafter.</p>\n\n\n<p><strong>What side effects may be seen when taking Methimazole?</strong><a id=\"Treat 1\" name=\"Title 1\">\n<a href=\"#Important\">[Back]</a></a><br>\nSide effects tend to occur in the first three months of treatment.

Your veterinarian will determine if these effects necessitate stopping the medication and treating with surgery or radioactive iodine therapy. </p>\n\n<p>Treatment with Methimazole may unmask hidden kidney disease. </p>\n\n<p>Rarely, you may see the development of myasthenia gravis, a neuromuscular disease that severely weakens muscles and may cause difficulty swallowing. If your pet is unusually tired, has a fever (temperature over 103°F), or shows signs of bruising or bleeding, contact your veterinarian immediately. </p>\n\n<p>If your pet experiences an allergic reaction to the medication, signs may include facial swelling, hives, scratching, and sudden onset of diarrhea, vomiting, shock, seizures, pale gums, cold limbs, or coma. If you observe any of these signs, contact your veterinarian immediately. </p>\n\n<p><strong>How is it stored?</strong><br>\nStore tablets at room temperature in a tightly closed container protected from light. Refrigerate oral suspension.

Because most dogs find Tri-Heart Plus chewable tablets palatable, the product can be offered to the dog by hand. Alternatively, it may be added intact to a small amount of dry food or placed in the back of the dog’s mouth for forced swallowing.</div><div><br></div><div>Care should be taken that the dog consumes the complete dose, and treated animals should be observed for a few minutes after administration to ensure that part of the dose is not lost or rejected. If it is suspected that any of the dose has been lost, redosing is recommended.</div><div><br></div><div>Tri-Heart Plus chewable tablets should be given at monthly intervals during the period of the year when mosquitoes (vectors), potentially carrying infective heartworm larvae, are active. The initial dose must be given within a month (30 days) after the dog’s first exposure to mosquitoes. The final dose must be given within a month (30 days) after the dog’s last exposure to mosquitoes.</div><div><br></div><div>When replacing another heartworm preventive product in a heartworm disease preventive program, the first dose of Tri-Heart Plus chewable tablets must be given within a month (30 days) of the last dose of the former medication.</div><div><br></div><div>If the interval between doses exceeds a month (30 days), the efficacy of ivermectin can be reduced. Therefore, for optimal performance, the chewable tablet must be given once a month on or about the same day of the month. If treatment is delayed, whether by a few days or many, immediate treatment with Tri-Heart Plus chewable tablets and resumption of the recommended dosing regimen minimizes the opportunity for the development of adult heartworms.</div><div><br></div><div>Monthly treatment with Tri-Heart Plus chewable tablets also provides effective treatment and control of ascarids (<i>T. canis, T. leonina</i>) and hookworms (<i>A. caninum, U. stenocephala, A. braziliense</i>). Clients should be advised of measures to be taken to prevent reinfection with intestinal parasites.</div><div><br></div><div><b>Missed doses</b></div><div>If a dose is missed: give Tri-Heart Plus immediately to resume monthly dosing and notify your veterinarian. Do not give two doses at once.</div><div>If multiple doses have been missed, consult your veterinarian prior to restarting the monthly dosing schedule.</div><div><br></div><div><b>Storage</b></div><div>Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature between 59 and 86°F. Protect product from light. Keep out of the reach of children and pets. Tablets should remain sealed in their original packaging and should only be taken out of the blister pack at the time of dosing. Store away from heat and direct sunlight.</div><div>Do not store in the bathroom, near the kitchen sink, or in damp places. The medicine may break down if exposed to heat or moisture.</div><div><br></div><div><hr></div><div><br></div><div><b>Side effects</b></div><div>Tri-Heart Plus is generally well tolerated, and side effects are considered uncommon when given at the recommended dosage. The most common side effects of this medication are vomiting and diarrhea.</div><div>Other reported side effects include (but may not be limited to) decreased appetite, depression/lethargy, hypersalivation (drooling), and pupil dilation.</div><div><br></div><div>Contact your veterinarian immediately if your pet experiences severe/excessive drooling, seizures or tremors, or exhibits decreased coordination (e.g., staggering, stumbling, difficulty walking).</div><div><br></div><div>Notify your veterinarian if your pet experiences any of the effects described above, or if you notice any other side effects that are persistent or troublesome.</div><div>If you notice anything unusual, please consult your veterinarian.</div><div><br></div><div><b>Precautions</b></div><div><i>*For complete product information including warnings and precautions, please refer to the manufacturer package insert.</i></div><div><br></div><div>For oral use in dogs only- not for use in humans. Keep this and all drugs out of the reach of children. In case of ingestion by humans, consult a physician immediately.</div><div><br></div><div>All dogs should be tested for existing heartworm infection before starting treatment with Tri-Heart Plus chewable tablets which are not effective against adult <i>D. immitis</i>. Infected dogs must be treated to remove adult heartworms and microfilariae before initiating a program with Tri-Heart Plus chewable tablets.</div><div><br></div><div>While some microfilariae may be killed by the ivermectin in Tri-Heart Plus chewable tablets at the recommended dose level, Tri-Heart Plus chewable tablets are not effective for microfilariae clearance. A mild hypersensitivity-type reaction, presumably due to dead or dying microfilariae and particularly involving a transient diarrhea has been observed in clinical trials with ivermectin alone after treatment of some dogs that have circulating microfilariae.</div><div><br></div><div>Do not administer to animals with a known history or suspected allergy/hypersensitivity to any avermectin or tetrahydropyrimidine drug, including this medication or any of its ingredients. Allergic reactions to medications may occur. Be sure to inform Vetsource and your veterinarian if your pet has any known drug sensitivities or allergies.</div><div>If your pet displays symptoms of an allergic reaction, discontinue therapy and call your veterinarian immediately or seek emergency veterinary attention. Symptoms may include (but are not limited to): swollen lips, tongue, face, or airways; difficulty breathing; agitation; profuse salivation; and widespread hives or itching.</div><div><br></div><div><b>Drug and food interactions</b></div><div>There are no documented drug or food interactions with this medication when given at the recommended dosage.</div><div>*NOTE: this may not be a comprehensive list.

It is used in the treatment of autoimmune diseases such as lupus or pemphigus, autoimmune hemolytic anemias, asthma and inhalant allergies (atopy), cancers, brain swelling, certain types of colitis, certain kidney diseases, and Addison's disease.</p>\n<p><strong>Who is it for?</strong><br>\nPrednisolone is for dogs and as an off-label use in cats.</p>\n\n<p><strong>What are the benefits?</strong><br>\n<table cellpadding=\"4\" cellspacing=\"0\" border=\"0\">\n <tr valign=\"top\">\n <td><strong>*</strong></td>\n\t <td>Prednisolone is a powerful anti-inflammatory medication that treats inflammation from allergies and more</td>\n </tr>\n <tr valign=\"top\">\n <td><strong>*</strong></td>\n\t <td>Also helps treat auto-immune diseases, and certain types of brain swelling and cancers</td>\n </tr>\n <tr valign=\"top\">\n <td><strong>*</strong></td>\n\t <td>It is used to treat Addison's disease, in which the body does not produce enough corticosteroids</td>\n </tr>\n\t <tr valign=\"top\">\n <td><strong>*</strong></td>\n\t <td>Oral dosage regimen can be effectively individualized for your pet by your veterinarian</td>\n </tr>\n</table></p>\n<p>Prednisolone is a synthetic glucocorticoid used in the treatment of many different conditions, including autoimmune diseases such as lupus or pemphigus, autoimmune hemolytic anemias, allergies including asthma and atopy (inhalant allergies), cancers, brain swelling, certain types of colitis, certain kidney diseases, and Addison's disease. When used correctly, side effects can be kept to a minimum.</p>\n\n\n<p><strong>How does Prednisolone work?</strong><br>\nPrednisolone has an effect on virtually every organ system in the body. Prednisolone is a corticosteroid that blocks the production of substances that trigger allergic and inflammatory actions. Prednisolone is used to modify the body's immune response. At lower doses it helps to reduce inflammation by decreasing the activity of certain cells and chemicals produced by the body that cause inflammation. At higher doses, it can suppress the immune system by decreasing the number of cells necessary for a proper immune response.</p>\n\n\n<p><strong>Is there a generic equivalent available?</strong><br>\nPrednisolone is the common drug name and there are multiple generic equivalents available.</p>\n\n<p><strong>How is it given?</strong><br>\nPrednisolone is an oral tablet, given by mouth. It may be given with food to avoid stomach upset. Always follow the dosage instructions provided by your veterinarian. If you have difficulties giving the medication, contact your veterinarian. Dosage depends on the product used. Your veterinarian may recommend starting at a higher dose and then reducing the dose every few days to a week. If on long-term therapy, do not discontinue the drug abruptly. The dose needs to be tapered off over several days to weeks to allow the body to start making its own cortisol again. This medication should only be given to the pet for which it was prescribed.</p>\n\n<p><strong>What results can I expect?</strong><br>\nWhen used to treat inflammatory conditions, such as allergies, the success rate is very good and improvements can be seen in several days. If the Prednisolone is stopped, signs of the disease may reappear. Autoimmune diseases and cancers are more difficult to treat and the success rate will depend on the type and severity of the condition.</p>\n\n\n<p><strong>What form(s) does it come in?</strong><br>\nPrenisolone comes in an oral tablet form.</p>\n\n<p>Please click on <strong>\"More Information\"</strong> for possible drug and food interactions with this medication.</p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<p><strong>Brand Name</strong><br>\nPrednistab is a veterinary brand name for prednisolone tablets. A human form is Orapred ODT.</p>\n\n<p><strong>Pronunciation</strong><br>\npred-NISS-oh-lone</p>\n\n<p><strong>Common Drug Name</strong><br>\nPrednisolone</p>\n\n<p><strong>What should I discuss with my veterinarian while considering Prednisolone?</strong><br>\nAsk your veterinarian what dose will provide the most benefit while minimizing any side effects. Also discuss how long the treatment period will be and what type of outcome is expected. You and your veterinarian should talk about any other treatment options that are recommended for your pet.</p>\n<p>Tell your veterinarian if your pet has diabetes; stomach ulcers; Cushings disease; a bacterial, viral or fungal infection; heart, liver or kidney disease; may be pregnant or is nursing, or if you intend to breed your dog.</p>\n<p>Notify your veterinarian of any other medications or supplements your dog is taking. Also if your dog has had any reactions to previous medications.</p>\n\n<p><strong>What should I do if I miss a dose?</strong><br>\nSince dosage regimens differ greatly, if you miss a dose, contact your veterinarian to determine when to give the next dose.</p>\n\n<p><strong>What is the most important information I should know?</strong><br>\nSide effects can be minimized by tailoring the treatment regimen for your pet's specific condition. You will need to work closely with your veterinarian to determine the proper dose. If used long-term, this medication should not be stopped abruptly. The dose needs to be tapered over a course of time as determined by your veterinarian.</p>\n\n<p><strong>Who should not take it?</strong><br>\nNot for use in animals with systemic fungal infections, some types of mange (mites), stomach ulcers, Cushing's disease, high blood pressure, kidney disease, or congestive heart failure. Do not use in pregnant animals. It may cause premature birth and birth defects in some animals. Predisolone may stunt growth if used in young, growing animals or is given to nursing mothers.</p>\n\n<p><strong>What side effects may be seen when taking Prednisolone?</strong><br>\nSide effects are usually dose dependent. If side effects occur, contact your veterinarian, who may decrease the dosage, frequency, or type of corticosteroid.</p>\n<p>The most common side effects are increased appetite, drinking, and urination. Your pet may have more \"accidents\" and need to go outside or use the litter box more often. Less common side effects include weight gain, panting, diarrhea, vomiting, and behavior changes.</p>\n<p>Side effects of daily long-term use include muscle loss, weakness, and the development of diabetes or hyperadrenocorticism (Cushing's disease). The typical signs of these diseases are increased thirst, urination, and appetite. Animals with Cushing's disease may also develop thin skin, a poor hair coat, and a \"pot-belly.\" Side effects may also include activation or worsening of hypothyroidism or pancreatitis.</p>\n<p>Immune system suppression may occur at high doses, making a pet more susceptible to infection. Contact your veterinarian if your pet has a fever (over 103° F), painful urination (a sign of urinary tract infection), tiredness, sneezing, coughing, or runny eyes.</p>\n\n<p><strong>How is it stored?</strong><br>\nStore at room temperature, in tight, light resistant, childproof container.</p>\n\n<p><strong>What should I do if I know of or suspect there has been an overdose?</strong><br>\nA short-term overdose is unlikely to cause problems. Chronic, or long-term, overdose is likely to cause signs of Cushing's disease or diabetes mellitus; both diseases commonly cause increased urinating, drinking, and eating. Abruptly stopping long-term treatment may cause signs of Addison's disease, including vomiting, weakness, collapse and sudden death. If you know or suspect your pet has had an overdose, or if you observe any of these signs in your pet, contact your veterinarian immediately.</p>\n\n<p><strong>What should I avoid when giving my pet Prednisolone?</strong><br>\nConsult your veterinarian before using Prednisolone with vitamins and supplements or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) such as aspirin, carprofen (Novox or Rimadyl), deracoxib (Deramaxx), etodolac (EtoGesic), meloxicam (Metacam),firocoxib (Previcox), or tepoxalin (Zubrin). Discuss the use of prednisolone with your veterinarian if it will be used along with insulin, modified live vaccines, phenytoin, phenobarbital, rifampin, cyclosporine, estrogens, erythromycin, or mitotane, amphotericin B, furosemide, or thiazide, since interactions may occur.</p>\n<p>Prednisolone may cause abnormal levels of hepatic enzymes, thyroid hormone, cholesterol, and potassium in the blood, and can affect many laboratory tests. Make sure your veterinarian knows your pet is taking Prednisolone prior to any testing.</p>\n\n"

PROIN is not effective in dogs with incontinence due to neurologic disease or malformations.</div><div>PROIN may cause hypertension; therefore, use with caution in dogs with preexisting heart disease, hypertension, liver disease, kidney insufficiency, diabetes, glaucoma, and conditions with a predilection for hypertension (e.g., hyperthyroidism). Use with caution in dogs receiving sympathomimetic drugs, tricyclic antidepressants, or monoamine oxidase inhibitors as increased toxicity may result.</div><div>Because this medication should NOT be used within at least 2 weeks of any monoamine oxidase inhibitor (e.g., selegiline, amitraz), it is NOT compatible with flea and tick collars that contain amitraz as an active ingredient. If your pet is currently using one of these collars, consult your veterinarian before starting this medication.</div><div>The safe use of PROIN has not been evaluated in dogs that are intended for breeding, or that are pregnant or lactating.

For dogs over 100 lbs., administer the appropriate combination of tablets.</div><div><br></div><div>SENTINEL FLAVOR TABS are palatable, and most dogs will consume the tablet when offered by the owner. As an alternative to direct dosing, the tablets can be hidden in food. Be certain the dog consumes the entire tablet or tablets.</div><div><br></div><div>Administer SENTINEL FLAVOR TABS to dogs immediately after or in conjunction with a normal meal. Food is essential for adequate absorption of lufenuron. Watch the dog closely following administration to be sure the entire dose has been consumed. If it is not entirely consumed, redose with the full recommended dose as soon as possible.</div><div><br></div><div>SENTINEL FLAVOR TABS must be administered monthly, preferably on the same date each month. Treatment with SENTINEL FLAVOR TABS may begin at any time of year. In geographic areas where mosquitoes and fleas are seasonal, the treatment schedule should begin one month prior to the expected onset and should continue until the end of \"mosquito and flea season.\" In areas with year-round infestations, treatment should continue through the entire year without interruption.</div><div><br></div><div>If a dose is missed and a 30-day interval between dosing is exceeded, administer SENTINEL FLAVOR TABS immediately and resume the monthly dosing schedule. If SENTINEL FLAVOR TABS replace daily diethylcarbamazine (DEC) for heartworm prevention, the first dose must be given within 30 days after the last dose of DEC.</div><div><br></div><div><b>Missed doses</b></div><div>If a dose is missed: give SENTINEL FLAVOR TABS immediately to resume monthly dosing and notify your veterinarian. Do not give two doses at once.</div><div>If multiple doses have been missed, consult your veterinarian prior to restarting the monthly dosing schedule.</div><div><br></div><div><b>Storage</b></div><div>Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature, between 59 and 77°F. Keep out of the reach of children and pets. Tablets should remain sealed in their original packaging and should only be taken out of the blister pack at the time of dosing. Store away from heat and direct sunlight.</div><div>Do not store in the bathroom, near the kitchen sink, or in damp places. The medicine may break down if exposed to heat or moisture.</div><div><br></div><div><hr></div><div><br></div><div><b>Side effects</b></div><div>SENTINEL FLAVOR TABS are generally well tolerated, and side effects are considered uncommon when given at the recommended dosage. Reported side effects include (but may not be limited to) vomiting, depression/lethargy, itching, skin reactions (e.g., redness, rash), diarrhea, decreased appetite, decreased coordination, salivation/drooling, and weakness.</div><div><br></div><div>Contact your veterinarian immediately if your pet experiences a shock-like reaction, severe or persistent vomiting, excessive drooling, fainting/collapse, or if you notice your pet has a seizure, extreme weakness/tiredness, dilated pupils, or severely decreased coordination (e.g., stumbling, difficulty walking).</div><div><br></div><div>Notify your veterinarian if your pet experiences any of the effects described above, or if you notice any other side effects that are persistent or troublesome.</div><div>If you notice anything unusual, please consult your veterinarian.</div><div><br></div><div><b>Precautions</b></div><div><i>*For complete product information including warnings and precautions, please refer to the manufacturer package insert.</i></div><div><br></div><div>For oral use in dogs only- not for use in humans. Keep this and all drugs out of the reach of children.</div><div><br></div><div>Do not use in puppies less than four weeks of age and less than two pounds of body weight.</div><div>Prior to administration of SENTINEL FLAVOR TABS, dogs should be tested for existing heartworm infections. Infected dogs should be treated to remove adult heartworms and microfilariae prior to initiating treatment with SENTINEL FLAVOR TABS.</div><div>Mild, transient hypersensitivity reactions manifested as labored respiration, vomiting, salivation and lethargy have been noted in some treated dogs carrying a high number of circulating microfilariae. These reactions are presumably caused by release of protein from dead or dying microfilariae.</div><div><br></div><div>SENTINEL FLAVOR TABS immediately break the flea life cycle by inhibiting egg development. However, preexisting flea populations may continue to develop and emerge after treatment with SENTINEL FLAVOR TABS has begun. Based on results of clinical studies, this emergence generally occurs during the first 30-60 days.</div><div>Therefore, noticeable control may not be observed until several weeks after dosing when a preexisting infestation is present. Cooler geographic areas may have longer lag periods due to a prolonged flea life cycle. The concurrent use of an approved adulticide may be employed depending on the severity of the infestation.</div><div>If a SENTINEL FLAVOR TABS-treated dog comes in contact with a flea-infested environment, adult fleas may infest the treated animal. These adult fleas are unable to produce viable offspring. The temporary use of an adulticide product may be necessary to kill these adult fleas.</div><div><br></div><div>The safety of SENTINEL FLAVOR TABS has not been established and should be used with caution in breeding, pregnant, or lactating dogs. Discuss the risks of using this medication with your veterinarian if your pet is in one of these groups.</div><div><br></div><div>Do not administer to animals with a known history or suspected allergy/hypersensitivity to this medication or any of its ingredients.

"html": "<strong>What is Enalapril?</strong><br>\nEnalapril is a prescription medication used in the treatment of mild, moderate or severe heart failure and high blood pressure.\n<p><strong>Who is it for?</strong><br>\nEnalapril is for dogs and cats.\n\n<p><strong>What are the benefits?</strong><br>\n<table cellpadding=\"4\" cellspacing=\"0\" border=\"0\">\n <tr valign=\"top\">\n <td><strong>*</strong></td>\n\t <td>Treats heart failure, dilated cardiomyopathy, and high blood pressure</td>\n </tr>\n <tr valign=\"top\">\n <td><strong>*</strong></span></td>\n\t <td>Also used in the treatment of some types of chronic renal failure</td>\n </tr>\n <tr valign=\"top\">\n <td><strong>*</strong></td>\n\t <td>Results can be seen in as little as two weeks</td>\n </tr>\n</table></p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How does Enalapril work?</strong><br>\nEnalapril is in a class of drugs called ACE inhibitors. ACE stands for angiotensin-converting enzyme. Enalpril works by blocking an enzyme in the body required to cause blood vessels to narrow (constrict). As a result, the blood vessels relax. This lowers blood pressure and increases the supply of blood and oxygen to the heart.\n\n\n<p><strong>Is there a generic equivalent available?</strong><br>\nThis is a generic medication.\n\n<p><strong>How is it given?</strong><br>\nEnalapril tablets are given orally, with or without food. Always follow the dosage instructions provided by your veterinarian. If you have difficulty giving the medication, contact your veterinarian. Do not abruptly stop giving the medication.\n<p>This medication should only be given to the pet for which it was prescribed.</p>\n<p><strong>What results can I expect?</strong><br>\nEnalapril will not cure heart or kidney disease, but can be helpful in reducing some of the symptoms. It may take several weeks to see an improvement in your pet's condition.\n\n\n<p><strong>What form(s) does it come in?</strong><br>\nEnalapril comes in tablet form.\n<p>Please click on <strong>\"More Information\"</strong> for possible drug and food interactions with this medication.</p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t<p><strong>Brand Name</strong><br>\nEnacard\n\n<p><strong>Pronunciation</strong><br>\ne-NAL-a-pril\n\n\n<p><strong>Common Drug Name</strong><br>\nEnalapril\n\n<p><strong>What should I discuss with my veterinarian while considering Enalapril?</strong><br>\nTalk to your veterinarian about what type of outcome is expected. Have your veterinarian explain the other treatment options that may be available to treat your pet's condition. Understand what type of monitoring may be necessary while your pet is taking Enalapril.\n<p>Tell your veterinarian if your pet has kidney disease, blood abnormalities, a vascular disease such as systemic lupus erythematosis (SLE), may be pregnant, or may be used for breeding.</p>\n<p>Notify your veterinarian of any other medications or supplements your pet is taking, and if your pet has had any reactions to previous medications. </p>\n<p><strong>What should I do if I miss a dose?</strong><br>\nIf you miss a dose, give it as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for the next dose, skip the one you missed and go back to the regular schedule. Do not give two doses at once.\n\n<p><strong>What is the most important information I should know?</strong><br>\nGive Enalapril exactly as your veterinarian prescribes. Do not stop the medication or decrease the dose unless instructed to do so by your veterinarian. If your pet experience diarrhea, vomiting, or the symptoms worsen while on Enalapril, contact your veterinarian.\n\n<p><strong>Who should not take it?</strong><br>\nDo not use in animals that are hypersensitive (allergic) to this drug or other ACE inhibitors. Not for use in pregnant and lactating animals (female animals nursing their young).\n\n<p>Use with caution in animals with kidney disease.</p>\n\n\n<p><strong>What side effects may be seen when taking Enalapril?</strong><br>\nYou may see loss of appetite, vomiting, diarrhea, listlessness, and incoordination. You may also see low blood pressure, which may cause weakness or collapse; kidney dysfunction, which may cause increased thirst and/or changes in urination; and abnormally high potassium levels, which may cause weakness, a slow heart rate, and a weak pulse. Contact your veterinarian if your pet has any of these signs.\n\n<p>If your pet experiences an allergic reaction to the medication, signs may include facial swelling, hives, scratching, sudden onset of diarrhea, vomiting, shock, seizures, pale gums, cold limbs, or coma. If you observe any of these signs, contact your veterinarian immediately.</p>\n\n\n<p><strong>How is it stored?</strong><br>\nStore at room temperatures (less than 86° F) in a tightly closed, childrproof container, protected from moisture. Do not remove the desiccant. Keep out of reach of children and pets.\n\n<p><strong>What should I do if I know of or suspect there has been an overdose?</strong><br>\nThe most common sign of an overdose is weakness. May also see any of the other side effects listed above. If you know or suspect your pet has had an overdose, or if you observe any of these signs in your pet, contact your veterinarian immediately.\n\n<p><strong>What should I avoid when giving my pet Enalapril?</strong><br>\nConsult your veterinarian before using Enalapril with any other medications, including vitamins and supplements, diuretics (e.g. Lasix, Salix), other vasodilators, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS) e.g., aspirin, etodolac (EtoGesic), carprofen (Novox or Rimadyl), meloxicam (Metacam, firocoxib (previcox), tepoxalin (Zubrin), or deracoxib (Deramaxx), since interactions may occur.\n\n<p>This medication is commonly given along with diuretics such as furosemide (Lasix, Salix), and may require adjustment of the diuretic dose by your veterinarian.</p>\n\n\n"
