4mg Isemid Tablet for Dogs - Sold Individually
935773
4mg Isemid Tablets for Dogs are used to manage the symptoms of congestive heart failure in dogs. Congestive heart failure is a medical condition where the dog's heart is unable to pump blood efficiently, leading to a fluid accumulation in the chest and lungs, clinically referred to as pulmonary oedema.
Isemid 4mg for Dogs works by enhancing the elimination of water and salt through the urine. This action subsequently decreases the overall blood volume, thereby reducing the strain on the heart to pump blood. The primary active ingredient in Isemid is Torasemide, a potent diuretic that facilitates the renal excretion of sodium, chloride, and water.
4mg Isemid Tablets are chewable, facilitating ease of administration. They can be given with or without food, providing flexibility in the regimen. VETERINARY PRESCRIPTION REQUIRED

Description
4mg Isemid Tablets for Dogs offer a reliable and effective solution for the management of congestive heart failure in dogs. With their easy administration and flexible dosing options, they provide a convenient way to help improve your pet's quality of life.
Certain small breeds such as Pomeranians, toy poodles, dachshunds, and Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are genetically predisposed to this condition. Symptoms of congestive heart failure can progress slowly, making it important to be vigilant for signs such as increased coughing, difficulty breathing or exercising, easy tiring, difficulty settling, or an increased breathing rate.
Isemid 4mg for Dogs is a prescription-only medication.

5mg Cardisure Tablet - per Tablet
Cardisure 5mg Tablets for Dogs
Cardisure 5mg is a veterinary prescription medication specifically formulated for the treatment and management of congestive heart failure (CHF) in dogs. Congestive heart failure is a serious cardiac condition characterised by the heart's inability to pump blood effectively throughout the body. Dogs suffering from CHF typically experience reduced exercise tolerance, lethargy, coughing, breathing difficulties, and fluid retention in various parts of the body, particularly the lungs and abdomen.
5mg Cardisure contains pimobendan as its active ingredient. Pimobendan belongs to a class of medications known as inodilators, which have a dual mode of action: they help to strengthen heart contractions while simultaneously causing blood vessels to dilate, thus improving overall circulation. Pimobendan’s effectiveness lies in its unique ability to enhance cardiac output without significantly increasing the heart’s oxygen demands. This makes it particularly suitable for long-term treatment of chronic heart conditions in dogs.

5mg/40mg Cardalis Tablet for Dogs - per tablet
5mg/40mg Cardalis Tablets for Dogs
Cardalis 5mg/40mg is a prescription-only tablet used as part of the management of congestive heart failure in dogs. Each tablet contains two active ingredients: benazepril (5mg) and spironolactone (40mg). They work in different but complementary ways to reduce strain on the heart and help control the fluid and pressure changes that can occur with heart failure.
Congestive heart failure in dogs
Congestive heart failure (CHF) describes a stage of heart disease where the heart can no longer pump efficiently enough to meet the body’s needs. When the heart struggles, pressure can build up in blood vessels and the body activates hormone systems that attempt to maintain circulation. These responses can cause the body to retain salt and water and can make blood vessels tighten. Over time, this can lead to fluid accumulation, commonly in the lungs, and it can increase the workload of the heart.
Dogs with CHF may show coughing, faster or more laboured breathing, reduced stamina, restless sleep, reduced appetite, or swelling in the abdomen. Symptoms can vary depending on the underlying heart problem and on where fluid builds up. CHF is a condition that requires ongoing veterinary care, and treatment is usually long term.
How Cardalis works
Cardalis combines an ACE inhibitor (benazepril) with an aldosterone antagonist (spironolactone). Together, they target two key pathways that are often overactive in CHF.
Benazepril works by reducing the production of angiotensin II, a substance that narrows blood vessels and encourages salt and water retention. By reducing angiotensin II, blood vessels can relax and blood pressure can reduce. This can lower the resistance the heart has to pump against, which may improve forward blood flow and reduce congestion. Benazepril can also help limit signals that contribute to fluid retention.
Spironolactone works by blocking the effects of aldosterone. Aldosterone is a hormone that tells the body to hold on to sodium and water. In CHF, aldosterone can remain high and can continue to drive fluid retention. By antagonising aldosterone, spironolactone helps reduce sodium and water retention while conserving potassium. Aldosterone can also influence longer-term changes in the heart and blood vessels, so controlling its effects can be valuable alongside other heart medicines.
