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.

Sileo Gel for Dogs – Treatment for Noise-Induced Anxiety and Fear

Sileo Gel for Dogs is a prescription medication designed to help manage acute anxiety and fear triggered by loud sounds. It contains dexmedetomidine, an active ingredient that reduces stress and panic responses without causing sedation. Sileo is commonly used during events such as thunderstorms, fireworks, and loud gatherings, where noise sensitivity can cause distress in dogs.

Noise-induced anxiety is a common behavioural issue in dogs. Sudden loud sounds can trigger an intense fear response, leading to pacing, trembling, excessive panting, or attempts to hide or escape. These reactions can be distressing for both the dog and the owner. Sileo Gel provides a targeted solution by calming the dog without impairing normal function, allowing them to remain alert and responsive while feeling more at ease.

How Sileo Gel Works

Sileo Gel contains dexmedetomidine hydrochloride, a selective alpha-2 adrenergic agonist that reduces the release of norepinephrine, a brain chemical responsible for stress and anxiety responses. By lowering norepinephrine levels, Sileo helps to calm the dog and reduce signs of fear without causing drowsiness or loss of coordination.

Administered as an oral transmucosal gel, Sileo is applied between the dog’s cheek and gum. It is absorbed through the mucous membranes, allowing for fast-acting relief within 30 to 60 minutes. The effects last for several hours, helping dogs remain calm during prolonged noise events. Unlike some sedatives, Sileo does not cause significant lethargy, meaning dogs can still interact normally with their surroundings.

Sileo is specifically designed for situational anxiety caused by loud sounds. It is not intended for general anxiety or long-term behavioural issues. It should be used under veterinary guidance, with dosage based on the dog's weight to ensure effectiveness and safety.

Optimmune Eye Ointment for Dogs

Optimmune Eye Ointment is a veterinary medication specifically designed to treat chronic eye conditions in dogs, particularly dry eye, also known as keratoconjunctivitis sicca (KCS), and chronic conjunctivitis. These conditions can cause severe discomfort and, if left untreated, may lead to more serious complications, including damage to the eye's surface and even vision loss. Optimmune offers a reliable and effective treatment, helping to manage the symptoms and improve your dog's quality of life.

How Optimmune Works

Optimmune contains cyclosporine, an immunosuppressive agent. Cyclosporine works by reducing the inflammatory response in the eyes, which is often triggered by the immune system attacking the tear-producing glands. This action helps to stimulate tear production, alleviating the dryness and irritation associated with keratoconjunctivitis sicca (KCS) and chronic conjunctivitis. By enhancing tear production and controlling inflammation, Optimmune prevents further damage to the eyes and maintains the health of the cornea and surrounding tissues.

The ointment is typically applied directly to the affected eye or eyes once or twice a day, as prescribed by your vet. The medication works at a cellular level, suppressing the activity of T-lymphocytes, a type of immune cell involved in the inflammatory process. By modulating the immune response, Optimmune not only soothes the symptoms of dry eye and conjunctivitis but also addresses the underlying cause of these conditions, providing long-term relief.
