16mg Cerenia for dogs is an effective solution specifically designed to manage travel sickness and vomiting in your canine companions.

Travel sickness, or motion sickness, is relatively common in dogs. It is caused by the mixed signals sent to the brain by the eyes and the inner ear when moving. Symptoms can include excessive drooling, uneasiness, and vomiting. Addressing these symptoms not only ensures the comfort of your pet but also makes travel experiences more pleasant for both the dog and the owner.

16mg Cerenia for dogs offers a reliable solution to prevent and alleviate these symptoms, making travel experiences more enjoyable for both you and your pet.

The active ingredient in 16mg Cerenia is Maropitant, which works by blocking a receptor in the brain. This effectively reduces vomiting caused by various stimuli, including motion sickness. By targeting the root cause of the problem, 16mg Cerenia tablets provide your dog with the relief they need during travel.

Description

Cerenia may only be supplied with a valid veterinary prescription issued by your vet. You should only purchase Cerenia if you have or are in the process of arranging such a prescription. See information bar for further details.  

Each 16mg Cerenia tablet contains 16mg maropitant as maropitant citrate monohydrate. Cerenia tablets also contain Sunset Yellow (E110) as a colourant. Cerenia tablets are pale orange and have a score line on both sides allowing the tablet to be halved. Each tablet is marked with the Pfizer logo on the reverse side. On the obverse side each half is marked with the letters �MPT� and figures denoting the quantity of maropitant.

16mg Cerenia for Dogs works by blocking the vomiting signal in the dog's brain. This action prevents the onset of vomiting that can be triggered by motion sickness or other causes. The active ingredient in Cerenia 16mg Tablets, maropitant citrate, is a neurokinin receptor antagonist, which effectively blocks the neurokinin-1 (NK1) receptor in the central nervous system. This blockade is what prevents the vomiting reflex.

Cerenia tablets are indicated for the following:

-For the prevention of vomiting including that induced by chemotherapy.
-For the treatment of vomiting in conjunction with Cerenia Solution for Injection and in combination with other supportive measures.
-For the prevention of vomiting including that induced by motion sickness.

Cerenia Dosage and administration
For oral use in dogs. Cerenia is used for the prevention of nausea induced by chemotherapy and treatment and prevention of vomiting (except motion sickness) Cerenia tablets should be administered once daily at a dose of 2 mg maropitant per kg bodyweight using the number of tablets given in the table below. Tablets are breakable along the score line on the tablet. To prevent vomiting tablets should be given more than 1 hour in advance. The duration of the effect is approximately 24 hours and therefore tablets can be given the night before administration of an agent that may cause emesis (e.g. chemotherapy). Cerenia can be used as either tablets or Solution for Injection once daily for up to five consecutive days to treat vomiting. Cerenia tablets are effective in the treatment of vomiting however in cases of frequent vomiting it is recommended to initiate treatment with Cerenia Solution for Injection. For prevention of vomiting induced by motion sickness Cerenia tablets should be administered once daily at a dose of 8 mg maropitant per kg bodyweight using the numbers of tablets given in the table below. Tablets are breakable along the score line on the tablet. Cerenia should be administered at least one hour before starting the journey. The anti-emetic effect persists for at least 12 hours which for convenience may allow administration the night before early morning travel. Treatment may be repeated for a maximum of two consecutive days.A light meal or snack before dosing is recommended; prolonged fasting before administration should be avoided.

Cerenia tablets should not be administered wrapped or encapsulated in food as this may delay dissolution of the tablet and consequently the onset of the effect. Dogs should be carefully observed following administration to ensure that each tablet is swallowed.
