Azathioprine for Animals
Azathioprine Azathioprine is used mainly in dogs with immune-mediated disease, often alongside a glucocorticoid. Clinical effects are delayed, and marrow or liver toxicity can precede obvious clinical deterioration. Group Thiopurine immunosuppressant Mechanism of Action Conversion to mercaptopurine and thioguanine metabolites interferes with purine metabolism and nucleic-acid synthesis, suppressing proliferating lymphocytes. Dose Rates Dog Use / stageDoseRouteScheduleInstructionsImmune-mediated disease — Initial2 mg/kgPOEvery…
Azithromycin for Animals
Azithromycin Azithromycin is a long-persisting macrolide-related antibiotic with high intracellular accumulation. It is also a partner drug in selected protozoal treatment regimens. Group Azalide antibacterial Mechanism of Action Binding to the bacterial 50S ribosomal subunit inhibits protein synthesis. Immunomodulatory effects may influence respiratory responses but do not imply susceptibility of resistant bacteria. Dose Rates Dog Use / stageDoseRouteScheduleInstructionsSusceptible bacterial infection10…
Atropine for Animals
Atropine Atropine is used for clinically important vagally mediated bradycardia and for muscarinic signs of cholinesterase-inhibitor poisoning. It does not reverse nicotinic muscle weakness. Group Antimuscarinic; parasympatholytic Mechanism of Action Competitive blockade of muscarinic acetylcholine receptors increases sinus rate, decreases secretions and reduces smooth-muscle motility. Dose Rates Dog Use / stageDoseRouteScheduleInstructionsVagal bradycardia0.02–0.04 mg/kgIV, IM, SCAs neededTitrate to clinically important bradycardia…
Atovaquone for Animals
Atovaquone Atovaquone is used with azithromycin for canine Babesia gibsoni infection and feline cytauxzoonosis. Absorption improves when it is given with a fatty meal. Group Hydroxynaphthoquinone antiprotozoal Mechanism of Action Inhibition of the protozoal mitochondrial cytochrome bc1 complex impairs electron transport and energy-dependent metabolic pathways. Dose Rates Dog Use / stageDoseRouteScheduleInstructionsBabesia gibsoni infection13–15 mg/kgPOEvery 8 hUp to 10 days; Give…
Atenolol for Animals
Atenolol Atenolol slows heart rate and AV conduction and is used in selected cardiac conditions in dogs and cats. Renal elimination makes kidney function relevant to dose selection. Control of hyperthyroid-associated tachycardia does not treat the underlying thyroid disorder and may mask its cardiovascular signs. Group Beta-1 adrenergic blocker Mechanism of Action Preferential beta-1 receptor antagonism reduces sympathetic cardiac stimulation,…
Aspirin for Animals
Aspirin Aspirin provides analgesic, anti-inflammatory and antiplatelet effects, but GI toxicity and variable platelet inhibition limit its veterinary use. Cats eliminate salicylate slowly. Group Salicylate NSAID; antiplatelet Mechanism of Action Irreversible cyclooxygenase acetylation suppresses platelet thromboxane synthesis; prostaglandin inhibition also contributes to analgesia, inflammation control and GI or renal adverse effects. Dose Rates Dog Use / stageDoseRouteScheduleInstructionsMild analgesia10 mg/kgPOEvery 12…
Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C) for Animals
Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C) Vitamin C is used to correct deficiency in species that require a dietary source. Healthy dogs and cats generally synthesize sufficient vitamin C; broad disease-prevention benefits of extra supplementation are unproven. Ascorbic acid solutions deteriorate with exposure to air and light. Stability of a particular compounded formulation cannot be assumed from another vitamin C product. Group…
Apomorphine for Animals
Apomorphine Apomorphine is used to induce emesis in dogs after suitable recent ingestions. Emetic selection depends on the substance, airway protection and neurologic status. Group Dopamine agonist emetic Mechanism of Action Stimulation of dopamine D2 receptors in the chemoreceptor trigger zone provokes vomiting. Swallowed drug has poor bioavailability because of extensive first-pass metabolism. Dose Rates Dog Use / stageDoseRouteScheduleInstructionsInduction of…
Amprolium for Animals
Amprolium Amprolium is an oral anticoccidial used particularly in calves and poultry. Prolonged or excessive exposure can induce host thiamine deficiency. Group Thiamine-antagonist anticoccidial Mechanism of Action Competition with thiamine uptake interferes with carbohydrate metabolism in susceptible coccidia. Dose Rates Cattle Use / stageDoseRouteScheduleInstructionsCoccidiosis prevention5 mg/kgPOEvery 24 hUp to 21 days; Calves; supply the full daily amount through the intended…
Ampicillin for Animals
Ampicillin Ampicillin is used for susceptible bacterial infections. Sodium injection is a soluble preparation; trihydrate injection is a suspension and must never be given intravenously. Group Aminopenicillin antibacterial Mechanism of Action Inhibition of bacterial penicillin-binding proteins blocks cell-wall peptidoglycan synthesis. Beta-lactamase production commonly confers resistance. Dose Rates Dog Use / stageDoseRouteScheduleInstructionsSusceptible infection — soluble injection10 mg/kgIV, IM, SCEvery 8 hAmpicillin…
