Mirataz for Cats - 20mg/g - 5g Tube

Mirataz for Cats - 20mg/g - 5g Tube

Mirataz for Cats – Appetite Stimulant for Managing Weight Loss

Mirataz (mirtazapine transdermal ointment) is a prescription medication formulated to manage weight loss in cats suffering from various underlying health conditions. It is the first and only FDA-approved transdermal medication designed specifically for feline weight management. By stimulating appetite and increasing food intake, Mirataz helps cats regain and maintain their body weight without the need for oral administration.

Feline weight loss can be a symptom of serious medical conditions, including hyperthyroidism, chronic kidney disease, inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), neoplasia, pancreatitis, and liver failure. Cats experiencing these conditions often suffer from reduced appetite, which leads to malnutrition, muscle wasting, and further health complications. Mirataz provides an effective and well-tolerated solution for encouraging weight gain in affected cats.

How Mirataz Works

Mirataz contains the active ingredient mirtazapine, an antidepressant with appetite-stimulating properties. In cats, mirtazapine acts as a serotonin and histamine receptor antagonist, which helps to increase appetite, reduce nausea, and improve food consumption.

Unlike traditional oral medications, Mirataz is formulated as a transdermal ointment. It is applied directly to the inner pinna (ear flap) of the cat’s ear, allowing the medication to be absorbed through the skin. This method of administration eliminates the stress associated with giving pills or liquids, making it easier for both cats and their owners to manage treatment.

What is Otitis Externa in Dogs?

Otitis externa is an inflammatory condition affecting the outer ear canal in dogs. It is a common problem, particularly in breeds with floppy ears or those prone to allergies. The condition can be caused by bacterial or fungal infections, parasites, allergies, excessive moisture, or underlying skin conditions.

If left untreated, otitis externa can progress, leading to chronic discomfort, pain, and potential damage to the ear canal. Early treatment is essential to prevent complications.

Causes of Otitis Externa

Several factors can contribute to the development of otitis externa in dogs. Common causes include:

  • Bacterial infections – Certain bacteria, such as Staphylococcus and Pseudomonas, can cause inflammation and infection.
  • Fungal infectionsMalassezia yeast is a frequent cause of ear infections in dogs.
  • Allergies – Food allergies or environmental allergens can trigger ear inflammation.
  • Excess moisture – Water trapped in the ear after swimming or bathing can create an environment for infections.
  • Ear mites – Parasites such as Otodectes cynotis can lead to irritation and infection.
  • Foreign objects – Grass seeds or debris lodged in the ear canal can cause irritation and infection.

Prinovox for Large Cats - 4 Pipettes

Prinovox for Large Cats - 4 Pipettes

Prinovox Spot-On Solution for Large Cats

Prinovox Spot-On Solution for Large Cats is a versatile, easy-to-use topical treatment designed for cats weighing over 4kg. This solution provides broad-spectrum protection against common parasites, including fleas, ear mites, mange, lungworms, and heartworms. By offering both treatment and prevention, Prinovox helps to keep your cat healthy and free from the discomfort and health risks associated with parasitic infestations.

The active ingredients in Prinovox are Imidacloprid and Moxidectin, which work together to eliminate parasites effectively. Imidacloprid targets external parasites such as fleas and ear mites, while Moxidectin provides protection against internal parasites, including worms. This dual-action formula makes Prinovox an essential part of your cat’s healthcare routine, particularly if they are exposed to outdoor environments where parasites are more common.

How Prinovox Spot-On Solution for Large Cats Works

Prinovox Spot-On Solution is applied directly to the skin at the back of your cat’s neck, where it is absorbed into the skin and spreads across the body. The active ingredients begin to work almost immediately. Imidacloprid is a powerful insecticidal agent that disrupts the nervous system of external parasites, such as fleas, leading to their death. It acts quickly to kill fleas on contact before they have the chance to bite your cat, making it an effective solution for flea infestations.

Moxidectin, the second active ingredient, is an antiparasitic agent that works internally. It targets and prevents infestations of roundworms, lungworms, and heartworms, which are parasites that can cause severe health issues if left untreated. Moxidectin interferes with the nerve and muscle function of these parasites, leading to paralysis and death, ensuring that your cat remains free from these harmful internal parasites.

150mg Masivet (licensed as Kinavet in the USA) is a prescription-only tablet for use against Mast Cell Tumours in dogs. Masivet 150mg is regarded as safe enough to be used at home, and is given as a tablet once daily.

Masivet is a prescription-only tablet for use against Mast Cell Tumours in dogs. Masivet 150mg is regarded as safe enough to be used at home, and is given as a tablet once daily. Not all dogs respond, but results can be very helpful for others. Close supervision by your vet is recommended.

150mg Masivet for Dogs contains an active ingredient called masitinib. This ingredient belongs to a class of medicines with an anti-cancer action. Masitinib is a protein-tyrosine kinase inhibitor, meaning it specifically targets and blocks certain enzymes, particularly the c-kit receptor found on the surface of cells. Some mast cell tumours are associated with a mutation that leads to excessive activity of the c-kit receptor, causing the mast cells to divide uncontrollably. By inhibiting these receptors, Masivet 150mg for Dogs helps control cell division, preventing further development of tumours with this specific mutation.

Pexion 400mg Tablet - per Tablet

Pexion 400mg Tablet - per Tablet

400mg Pexion is a prescription medication used to manage epilepsy in dogs. Each tablet contains 400mg of imepitoin, an antiepileptic drug that helps reduce the frequency and severity of seizures.

Pexion is primarily used to treat idiopathic epilepsy, a common neurological disorder in dogs. It may also be prescribed for dogs suffering from noise phobia, as it has calming effects on the nervous system. Unlike some traditional epilepsy medications, Pexion has a lower risk of liver toxicity and can be a suitable long-term treatment option for many dogs.

How Pexion Works

Pexion 400mg contains imepitoin, a drug that acts on the brain’s neurotransmitters to stabilise electrical activity and prevent seizures.

Seizures occur due to abnormal electrical signals in the brain, causing sudden and uncontrolled movements, loss of consciousness, or behavioural changes. Imepitoin works by enhancing the effects of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), a neurotransmitter that reduces excessive brain activity. By increasing GABA’s calming effects, Pexion helps to suppress abnormal electrical impulses and prevent seizure episodes.

Pexion also has anti-anxiety properties, which make it beneficial for dogs with noise-related anxiety, such as fear of fireworks or thunderstorms.
