Semintra for Cats - Semintra Oral Solution for Cats with Chronic Kidney Disease

Semintra

Seintra for Cats - The leading solution for feline proteinuria and hypertension

Semintra is a veterinary medicine used in cats to reduce proteinuria (protein in the urine) and to treat high blood pressure. Proteinuria can occur with chronic (long-term) kidney disease in cats, a common disease in elderly cats characterised by a progressive deterioration of kidney function over time. High blood pressure is also a long term problem of ageing cats which can occur with chronic kidney disease, hyperthyroidism (overactive thyroid gland) and other conditions.

Semintra has a highly targeted mode of action that provides rapid and reliable reduction in proteinuria in cats with chronic kidney disease.

The active substance in Semintra, telmisartan, is an ‘angiotensin II receptor antagonist’, which means that it blocks the action of a hormone in the body called angiotensin II. Angiotensin II is a powerful vasoconstrictor (a substance that constricts ...

Semintra is a veterinary medicine used in cats to reduce proteinuria (protein in the urine) and to treat high blood pressure. Proteinuria can occur with chronic (long-term) kidney disease in cats, a common disease in elderly cats characterised by a progressive deterioration of kidney function over time. High blood pressure is also a long term problem of ageing cats which can occur with chronic kidney disease, hyperthyroidism (overactive thyroid gland) and other conditions.

Semintra has a highly targeted mode of action that provides rapid and reliable reduction in proteinuria in cats with chronic kidney disease.

The active substance in Semintra, telmisartan, is an ‘angiotensin II receptor antagonist’, which means that it blocks the action of a hormone in the body called angiotensin II. Angiotensin II is a powerful vasoconstrictor (a substance that constricts blood vessels). By blocking the receptor to which angiotensin II normally attaches, telmisartan stops the hormone having an effect, allowing the blood vessels to expand. This allows blood pressure to drop with a resulting decrease in protein in the urine which may slow down progression of kidney disease.

Semintra is an oral treatment for cats with chronic kidney disease, which is used to lower protein in the urine (proteinuria). Semintra  also helps lower high blood pressure.

Semintra is available as:

  • 30ml (4mg/ml) - Blue Box
  • 100ml (4mg/ml) - Blue Box
  • 35ml (10mg/ml) - Red Box

A Veterinary Prescription is required for Semintra

Semintra Oral Solution for Cats - 30ml

Semintra Oral Solution for Cats - 30ml

30ml Semintra for Cats is a revolutionary product designed to combat proteinuria associated with CKD. Chronic kidney disease (CKD) in cats is a prevalent condition, especially as they age. One of the significant concerns associated with CKD is proteinuria, the unwanted loss of proteins in the urine. Addressing this issue is crucial for the overall health and well-being of your cat.

Proteinuria is not just a symptom but a direct contributor to the progression of CKD in cats. When proteins, which are usually retained in the body, are lost through urine, it can lead to a decrease in protein levels in the blood. This can result in various complications, including an imbalance in fluid retention and susceptibility to infections. Therefore, managing proteinuria is a pivotal step in treating CKD.

Semintra 30ml for Cats is an oral solution containing telmisartan, an active substance that plays a crucial role in reducing proteinuria. Telmisartan is an angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB). It works by modulating the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS), a system that can contribute to kidney damage when overactivated. By blocking specific receptors in this system, Semintra for Cats ensures that the harmful effects are mitigated, leading to a reduction in proteinuria.

Semintra Oral Solution for Cats - 100ml

Semintra 100ml Oral Solution for Cats is a prescription veterinary medicine used to treat systemic hypertension (high blood pressure) in cats. Semintra is specifically formulated to help manage this common but often undetected condition in older cats. The active ingredient in Semintra is telmisartan, a type of angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) that helps reduce blood pressure and protect internal organs from damage caused by prolonged hypertension.

Semintra 100ml comes as an oral solution that is easy to administer using the dosing syringe included. It is flavoured to support easier compliance and accurate measurement. Semintra is given once daily and is prescribed by a veterinarian following a diagnosis of hypertension.

What is Hypertension in Cats?

Systemic hypertension in cats refers to an abnormally high blood pressure within the arteries. It is more commonly seen in middle-aged and older cats and is often linked with underlying conditions such as chronic kidney disease (CKD) or hyperthyroidism. In some cases, it may occur without any identifiable cause, a condition known as idiopathic hypertension.
