Prescription Only Drugs

Amodip 1.25mg for Cats is a prescription-only medication used to manage systemic hypertension (high blood pressure) in cats. It contains the active ingredient amlodipine besylate, which belongs to a class of medicines called calcium channel blockers. This medicine is widely used in veterinary medicine to help reduce and control blood pressure in feline patients.

Amodip comes in chewable tablets that are flavoured to make administration easier. Each tablet contains 1.25mg of amlodipine, which is the most commonly recommended starting dose for cats. It is licensed for veterinary use in the UK and is usually prescribed by vets when a cat has been diagnosed with persistent high blood pressure.

How Amodip Works

Amodip works by relaxing the smooth muscles of the blood vessel walls. It does this by inhibiting the movement of calcium into the cells of the heart and blood vessels. This relaxation causes the vessels to widen (vasodilation), which lowers the resistance against blood flow and helps reduce blood pressure.

Lowering blood pressure reduces the strain on the heart and can help prevent damage to organs such as the kidneys, brain, and eyes. In cats, high blood pressure can lead to serious health issues including blindness, seizures, and kidney failure. By maintaining blood pressure within a normal range, Amodip can support long-term health and improve a cat's quality of life.

20mg Galliprant (grapiprant) is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) designed specifically for the treatment of osteoarthritis in dogs. It provides targeted relief from pain and inflammation, helping dogs maintain mobility and quality of life. Galliprant 20mg works differently from traditional NSAIDs, making it a safer option for long-term use in managing osteoarthritis symptoms.

Each tablet contains 20mg of grapiprant, a selective prostaglandin receptor antagonist (PRA). It is available in different strengths to suit various dog sizes and is administered once daily with or without food. Galliprant is a prescription-only medication and should only be used under veterinary supervision.

How Galliprant Works

Galliprant works by blocking the EP4 receptor, which is primarily responsible for pain and inflammation associated with osteoarthritis. Unlike traditional NSAIDs, which inhibit cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes, Galliprant specifically targets this receptor without affecting other prostaglandins that support normal bodily functions.

This selective action reduces the risk of gastrointestinal, kidney, and liver side effects that are commonly associated with other NSAIDs. Because it works at the root of inflammation rather than through broad suppression, Galliprant provides effective pain relief while maintaining overall health and well-being.

10mg Cytopoint for Dogs is an innovative medication designed to provide relief to dogs suffering from atopic dermatitis, a common and often debilitating skin condition. Cytopoint helps reduce the itchiness and inflammation associated with atopic dermatitis, allowing dogs to live more comfortably. Pack of 2 Vials.

10mg Cytopoint is a refrigerated medication - We will send it via Royal Mail Special Delivery using insulated packaging and ice packs. A signature is required on delivery and it must be put straight into a fridge. We cannot guarantee same day dispatch for orders placed after 12pm. VETERINARY PRESCRIPTION REQUIRED.

Cytopoint 10mg is a veterinary treatment designed to relieve itching caused by atopic dermatitis in dogs. It works by targeting specific proteins involved in the itch response, providing long-lasting relief. Unlike traditional allergy medications, Cytopoint does not suppress the immune system, making it a safe and effective option for managing allergic skin conditions.

Atopic dermatitis is a common inflammatory skin disease in dogs caused by allergic reactions to environmental allergens. It results in persistent itching, skin irritation, and inflammation. If left untreated, the condition can lead to secondary infections and a decline in the dog's quality of life.

Cytopoint is administered as an injection and provides relief for up to four to eight weeks. By reducing the urge to scratch, it helps prevent skin damage and supports overall skin health.

How Cytopoint 10mg Works

Cytopoint contains lokivetmab, a monoclonal antibody that specifically targets and neutralises interleukin-31 (IL-31), a protein responsible for sending itch signals to the brain. By blocking IL-31, Cytopoint helps reduce the sensation of itching at its source, preventing excessive scratching and further skin irritation.

Unlike steroids or immunosuppressive drugs, Cytopoint works by mimicking the body’s natural immune response without affecting other parts of the immune system. This targeted approach provides effective relief from atopic dermatitis without the side effects commonly associated with long-term steroid use.

The treatment is administered as a subcutaneous injection by a veterinary professional. Once in the system, the monoclonal antibodies remain active for several weeks, gradually breaking down like the body's natural proteins. This provides extended relief from itching without requiring daily medication.

Prozinc Insulin for Cats and Dogs

Prozinc Insulin is a vet-prescribed insulin used to manage diabetes mellitus in cats and dogs. Prozinc contains protamine zinc insulin, an intermediate-acting insulin derived from recombinant human insulin. Prozinc is specifically formulated to help regulate blood glucose levels and reduce the symptoms associated with diabetes in pets. Prozinc is most commonly prescribed for cats with diabetes mellitus, but it may also be used in dogs under veterinary direction.

Prozinc helps stabilise glucose levels by mimicking the action of naturally produced insulin in the pancreas. The use of Prozinc requires a vet’s diagnosis and ongoing monitoring to ensure proper dosage and effectiveness.

How Prozinc Insulin Works

Insulin is a hormone that plays a critical role in regulating glucose levels in the bloodstream. In healthy animals, insulin is naturally produced by the pancreas and helps transport glucose from the blood into the body’s cells, where it is used as a source of energy. In diabetic pets, the body either does not produce enough insulin or is unable to use it effectively. This leads to elevated blood glucose levels, which can result in various health complications over time. Prozinc contains protamine zinc recombinant human insulin, designed for a prolonged effect. Once injected subcutaneously, Prozinc gradually releases insulin into the bloodstream, helping to control glucose levels throughout the day. Its intermediate duration of action allows for fewer injections compared to shorter-acting insulins. This makes it a suitable option for ongoing diabetes management in both cats and dogs when prescribed and supervised by a veterinarian. Each dose of Prozinc is tailored to the specific needs of the pet, based on factors such as weight, blood glucose readings, and clinical signs. It is important that pet owners closely follow veterinary instructions and monitor their pet’s condition regularly.

250mg Epilease capsules are designed to help control seizures in dogs diagnosed with epilepsy. The capsules contain potassium bromide, an active ingredient that stabilises electrical activity in the brain and reduces seizure frequency. Epilepsy is a neurological condition that causes recurring seizures, which can vary in severity and duration.

Seizures occur when abnormal electrical impulses in the brain trigger involuntary movements, loss of consciousness, or behavioural changes. Epilease helps to regulate these electrical signals, reducing the likelihood of sudden seizures and providing long-term management of the condition.

Dogs with epilepsy require consistent medication to maintain stable brain function and prevent seizure episodes. Regular veterinary supervision and monitoring are essential to ensuring the effectiveness of treatment and adjusting dosage if necessary.

How 250mg Epilease Capsules Work

Epilease contains potassium bromide, which works by altering the way nerve cells in the brain transmit signals. Potassium bromide affects chloride channels in neurons, making them less excitable and reducing the risk of spontaneous electrical activity that leads to seizures. This stabilising effect helps to control epilepsy and prevent unpredictable episodes.

Potassium bromide is often used in cases where standard anti-seizure medications, such as phenobarbital, are not effective or cause side effects. It can be used as a primary treatment or in combination with other medications to improve seizure control.

As a long-term treatment, Epilease gradually builds up in the dog's system, requiring consistent daily administration. It may take several weeks before full effects are observed, and close monitoring is necessary to adjust dosage based on the dog’s response.

VETERINARY PRESCRIPTION REQUIRED

Zycortal for Dogs is a veterinary prescription medicine used to treat Addison’s disease (hypoadrenocorticism) in dogs. This injectable suspension is designed to help maintain electrolyte balance and prevent the life-threatening symptoms associated with this condition. It contains desoxycortone pivalate (DOCP), a synthetic mineralocorticoid that supports adrenal function by regulating sodium, potassium, and water levels in the body.

Addison’s disease occurs when a dog’s adrenal glands do not produce enough corticosteroid hormones, which are essential for various physiological functions. Without proper treatment, affected dogs may experience lethargy, vomiting, diarrhoea, dehydration, and in severe cases, collapse. Zycortal is used in combination with glucocorticoid therapy to provide long-term management of the condition, helping to stabilise a dog’s health and improve their quality of life.

How Zycortal Works

Zycortal contains desoxycortone pivalate (DOCP), which mimics the action of natural mineralocorticoid hormones that are normally produced by the adrenal glands. These hormones play a crucial role in maintaining the balance of electrolytes and fluids in the body. When a dog has Addison’s disease, their body fails to produce sufficient levels of aldosterone, a hormone responsible for regulating sodium and potassium levels. This imbalance can lead to serious complications, including dehydration, low blood pressure, and shock.

Once administered by a veterinarian as a subcutaneous injection, Zycortal helps to normalise sodium and potassium levels, reducing the risk of dangerous fluctuations. The active ingredient works over an extended period, typically requiring re-administration every 25 to 30 days. Since Zycortal only replaces mineralocorticoid function, dogs undergoing treatment will also need additional glucocorticoid therapy, such as prednisolone, to replace the deficient cortisol levels.
