ATOPICA CATS 100 MG/ML SOL 17 ML | CHRONIC ALLERGIC DERMATITIS

Giving a pill to a wary cat is nearly impossible, which is why a liquid solution makes all the difference. Atopica for cats 100 mg/ml contains cyclosporine and comes in a 17 ml bottle to treat chronic allergic dermatitis; it is also indicated for small dogs.

What is it for

It relieves the signs of chronic allergic dermatitis: itching, redness, and lesions. The manufacturer reports a proven reduction in symptoms and an improvement in the skin's barrier function, which helps reduce inflammation. It doesn't work immediately: you need to allow time and maintain daily consistency during the first few weeks.

How it is used

The dose is 7 mg per kg, equivalent to 0,07 ml per kg, once a day. A 5 kg cat receives 0,35 ml. It can be mixed with a small amount of food or given directly. Once symptoms are controlled, doses are spaced out, and some cats require consecutive courses of treatment. Clean the syringe tip after each administration and store the bottle closed, away from heat.

Composition and presentation

Oral solution of 17 ml with cyclosporine A 10% (100 mg per ml), anhydrous ethanol 94,70 mg and propylene glycol 94,70 mg per ml.

Precautions

Do not use in cats with hypersensitivity to cyclosporine, a history of malignant disorders, or FeLV or FIV infection. In rare cases, prolonged immunosuppression or opportunistic infections have been reported in predisposed cats. Consult your veterinarian about any changes in your cat's behavior.
