This 2ml syringe with an attached 21-gauge (21g) needle is suitable for administering specific medications to cats and dogs that require subcutaneous injections. Each syringe is individually packaged, sterile, and designed for single use only. This product is commonly used in veterinary practices and at home under veterinary guidance.
The syringe has a 2ml capacity and is fitted with a 21g needle. This needle size is considered suitable for administering certain subcutaneous or intramuscular injections in cats and dogs, depending on the medication and the animal’s size and condition. The 21g needle offers a balance between needle strength and minimal discomfort during injection, making it appropriate for routine use with specific veterinary biologics.
This type of syringe is appropriate for administering Solensia, Librela, and Cytopoint, which are injectable monoclonal antibody therapies used to manage chronic pain and allergic dermatitis in pets. These medications are typically prescribed for monthly administration and are given via subcutaneous injection. The 21g needle provides a suitable gauge for delivering the full dose efficiently while maintaining comfort for the animal.
Solensia is prescribed for the management of osteoarthritis pain in cats. It is given once a month via subcutaneous injection. The 2ml syringe allows for accurate dosing, and the 21g needle is appropriate for the viscosity of the Solensia solution and for delivering it under the skin in a cat with minimal stress and tissue trauma.
Librela is used in dogs to treat pain associated with osteoarthritis. Like Solensia, it is administered subcutaneously once a month. The 21g needle is appropriate for most dog breeds and sizes, as it enables smooth delivery of the medication while being strong enough to penetrate the skin effectively without bending or breaking.
Cytopoint is another monoclonal antibody therapy, used to manage allergic dermatitis in dogs. It is also given as a monthly subcutaneous injection. The 2ml capacity of the syringe provides ample volume to accommodate the required dose, and the 21g needle is compatible with the formulation’s consistency and administration method.
This syringe and needle combination should not be used for insulin administration in cats or dogs. Veterinary insulin products such as Caninsulin and Prozinc require specific insulin syringes that are calibrated differently from standard 2ml syringes. Insulin syringes are typically marked in units, not millilitres, and have finer, shorter needles such as 29g or 30g, which are designed to deliver precise insulin doses in small volumes. Using a standard 2ml syringe for insulin injections can lead to inaccurate dosing and can be dangerous to the animal.
Thyforon 400 is a veterinary medication designed to treat hypothyroidism in dogs. It contains levothyroxine sodium, a synthetic form of thyroxine (T4), which replaces the deficient thyroid hormone. This condition affects a dog’s metabolism, energy levels, and overall well-being. Thyforon 400 helps restore thyroid hormone levels, alleviating symptoms and supporting normal physiological functions.
Hypothyroidism is a common endocrine disorder in dogs, typically caused by autoimmune destruction of the thyroid gland or idiopathic atrophy. The condition results in a slowed metabolism, weight gain, lethargy, and poor coat quality. Thyforon 400 is a prescription medication and must be administered under veterinary supervision.
Thyforon 400 contains levothyroxine sodium, which acts as a replacement for thyroxine (T4), the hormone normally produced by the thyroid gland. Thyroxine is essential for regulating metabolism, body temperature, cardiovascular function, and skin and coat health.
When a dog has hypothyroidism, the thyroid gland fails to produce sufficient hormones, leading to metabolic slowdown and a range of health problems. By supplementing the missing hormone, Thyforon 400 restores normal metabolic activity. The body converts levothyroxine into triiodothyronine (T3), the active form of the hormone, which supports proper organ function and energy regulation.
8mg Reconcile for Dogs is a prescription medication that contains fluoxetine. Reconcile 8mg is available as chewable tablets and it's indicated as an aid in the treatment of separation-related disorders in dogs manifested by destruction and inappropriate behaviours (vocalisation and inappropriate defaecation and/or urination).
Reconcile is a prescription-only medication for dogs suffering from separation anxiety. The 8mg dose is typically prescribed for small to medium-sized dogs, depending on the animal's weight and condition. Reconcile is designed to be used in combination with a structured behaviour modification programme, under the guidance of a veterinary professional.
Reconcile contains fluoxetine hydrochloride, a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI). This active ingredient works by increasing the amount of serotonin available in the brain. Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that helps regulate mood, anxiety, and behaviour. In dogs with separation anxiety, serotonin levels may be imbalanced, which can contribute to distress when left alone. By restoring this balance, Reconcile can help reduce anxious behaviours over time.
Separation anxiety is a common behavioural issue in dogs. It occurs when a dog becomes distressed or exhibits undesirable behaviours when separated from their owner or primary caregiver. Common signs include excessive barking or howling, destructive chewing, attempts to escape, urinating or defecating indoors, and pacing. These behaviours often begin shortly after the owner leaves and can be distressing for both the dog and the household.
The 8mg strength of Reconcile is usually prescribed for dogs weighing between 8.1kg and 16kg. Dosage is typically given once daily, and it is important that the medication is administered at the same time each day to maintain a consistent effect. Tablets are flavoured to aid compliance and are often well-accepted by dogs when offered with food or as a treat.

16mg Apoquel for dogs is a prescription medication that is used to treat a variety of skin conditions in dogs. Apoquel works by blocking the signals that cause itching and inflammation, providing relief from symptoms associated with acute and chronic canine pruritus.
Canine pruritus (itchiness) is a condition that causes itching and inflammation of the skin in dogs. This condition can be caused by a variety of factors, including allergies, fleas, mites, and bacterial infections. Acute pruritus is a sudden onset of itching, while chronic pruritus is a more persistent form of itching that lasts for an extended period. Both types of pruritus can be debilitating for dogs, causing discomfort, pain, and even skin infections.
16mg Apoquel for dogs works by inhibiting the production of cytokines, which are molecules that contribute to inflammation and itching. By blocking these signals, Apoquel helps to reduce inflammation and provide relief from itching. Unlike other medications that suppress the immune system, Apoquel targets only the cells involved in the inflammatory response, minimizing the risk of side effects.

64mg Reconcile for Dogs is a veterinary prescription medication that contains fluoxetine.
Reconcile 64mg is available as chewable tablets and it's indicated as an aid in the treatment of separation-related disorders in dogs manifested by destruction and inappropriate behaviours (vocalisation and inappropriate defaecation and/or urination).
Reconcile for Dogs aids in the treatment of separation-related disorders in dogs. These disorders are often manifested by destructive and inappropriate behaviours, such as vocalisation and inappropriate defecation and/or urination, particularly when the dog is left alone.
Reconcile 64mg for Dogs is a once-a-day, flavoured, chewable tablet that is prescribed by your veterinarian. The active ingredient is fluoxetine, an antidepressant that works by increasing the levels of serotonin in the dog's brain. This helps to achieve a calmer frame of mind in dogs, making them more receptive to behaviour modification training.
Separation anxiety is a condition that affects up to 17% of dogs. It can be inherited or acquired, depending on the dog’s history and experiences. The anxiety develops when the dog is unable to soothe their anxiety without the assistance of their caregiver, or when being alone is associated with uncertainty or fear-inducing signals such as noise. Separation anxiety is a common condition in dogs, causing distress when they are left alone. Affected dogs may exhibit destructive behaviours, excessive barking, inappropriate urination, or attempts to escape. Reconcile is prescribed alongside a structured behavioural modification programme to help dogs develop healthier coping mechanisms and reduce anxiety symptoms over time.

Thyforon 200 is a veterinary medication used to treat hypothyroidism in dogs. It contains levothyroxine sodium, a synthetic form of the thyroid hormone thyroxine (T4), which is essential for regulating metabolism, energy levels, and overall health. Thyforon 200 is available in tablet form and is prescribed by veterinarians to manage thyroid hormone deficiencies in dogs.
Hypothyroidism is a common endocrine disorder in dogs, leading to symptoms such as weight gain, lethargy, hair loss, and skin problems. Thyforon 200 helps restore normal thyroid hormone levels, alleviating these symptoms and improving the dog’s quality of life.
Thyforon 200 contains levothyroxine sodium, a synthetic version of thyroxine (T4), which is the hormone naturally produced by the thyroid gland. In dogs with hypothyroidism, the thyroid gland does not produce enough thyroxine, resulting in a slow metabolism and a range of health problems.
When administered as prescribed, Thyforon 200 supplements the missing thyroid hormone, restoring normal metabolic function. The body converts levothyroxine into triiodothyronine (T3), the active form of the hormone. This process helps regulate energy levels, body temperature, heart rate, and overall well-being.
