How to Order Prescriptions

Description

Fluoxetine is a prescription antidepressant that may be used by veterinarians to help manage certain behavioral conditions in dogs. It is commonly prescribed as part of a treatment plan for separation anxiety, typically in combination with behavior modification strategies. Fluoxetine affects serotonin levels in the brain to help support behavioral health. Use and dosage should always be determined by a veterinarian.

Handling of your-oil based compounded liquid

This compounded prescription does not need to be refrigerated and can be stored at room temperature
This compound prescription is an oil-based suspension. Because of this, it will be separated into two different liquid phases. The oil will rest at the top and the suspended medication at the bottom.
Shake the suspension thoroughly between doses to fully suspend the medication in the oil.

Dosing Instructions

Each compounded liquid will be dispensed with a clear bottle adapter which seals the top of your prescription bottle. DO NOT REMOVE THIS ADAPTER.

To begin, pull the plunger of the dosing syringe back to the correct dose line on your syringe.
Place the tip of the dosing syringe into the middle of the bottle adapter as far as it will go.
With the tip of the dosing syringe fully pushed into the bottle adapter, flip the bottle upside down and hold it upside down with one hand.
Using your other hand, push the plunger fully into the syringe.
Pull the plunger back to the correct dose line on your syringe.
Once you have the correct dose, flip the bottle back over and pull the dosing syringe out of the bottle adapter. The bottle adapter will self-seal once it's removed.

Give your dog the drawn up dose in the syringe orally.

Caring for your dosing syringe

Oil-based compounded liquid suspensions often cause the dosing syringe to drag or get stuck because of the consistency of the oil-based liquid.
To help minimize this from happening try the following:

Rinse the syringe and plunger with hot water between doses.
Wash the syringe and plunger with a drop of dish soap to fully wash the syringe between doses. This will help get the oil out of the syringe between doses to ensure an easier dosing experience.

Please Note
