How to Order Prescriptions

Description

Vetmedin is indicated for the management of the signs of mild, moderate, or severe (modified NYHA Class IIa, IIIb, or IVc) congestive heart failure in dogs due to atrioventricular valvular insufficiency (AVVI) or dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM).

Vetmedin Chewable Tablets (pimobendan) come in either 1.25mg, 2.5, 5mg, or 10mg, 50 tablets per bottle.

Vetmedin is indicated for use with concurrent therapy for congestive heart failure (e.g., furosemide, etc.) as appropriate on a case-by-case basis.

a. A dog with modified New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class II heart failure has fatigue, shortness of breath, coughing, etc. apparent when ordinary exercise is exceeded.
b. A dog with modified NYHA Class III heart failure is comfortable at rest, but exercise capacity is minimal.
c. A dog with modified NYHA Class IV heart failure has no capacity for exercise and disabling clinical signs are present even at rest.

At the first clinical signs, use VetMedin right away to help your dog feel better.

*Studies show acting early can help improve the dog's quality and duration of life.

Dosage and Administration

Give orally at a total daily dose of 0.23 mg/lb (0.5 mg/kg) body weight, using a suitable combination of whole or half tablets.

The total daily dose should be divided into 2 portions that are not necessarily equal, and the portions should be administered approximately 12 hours apart (i.e., morning and evening).
The tablets are scored and the calculated dosage should be provided to the nearest half tablet increment.

I was devastated when my Basset Hound was diagnosed with DCM almost a year ago. I knew something was wrong when he would cough all night. With Vetmedin, he rarely coughs and is a happy boy. Love this product.

My coonhound was diagnosed with CHF 2 years ago. She is a 100 lb dog and just celebrated her 12th birthday. She has a great quality of life and still walks 2-3 miles a day. I think Vetmedin is terrific!

My dog was diagnosed with CHF over 3 years ago. With Vetmedin he is still around and enjoying life. A little slower but comfortable and happy.
