Vetmedin Hard 5mg 1 Capsule (Pimobendan) is a Prescription-Only Medicine (POM-V) formulated to help manage congestive heart failure in dogs. This vital medication supports your beloved companion's heart function, helping them to live a more comfortable life.

Description

Vetmedin Hard 5mg 1 Capsule contains the active ingredient Pimobendan, which works in two crucial ways to alleviate symptoms of canine heart disease. Firstly, it acts as a positive inotrope, increasing the strength of your dog's heart contractions, making it more efficient at pumping blood. Secondly, it functions as a vasodilator, widening blood vessels to reduce the workload on the heart.

This dual action helps to improve blood flow, reduce fluid buildup, and ease the strain on your dog's cardiovascular system, particularly in cases of dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) and chronic valvular insufficiency (CVI). As a POM-V medication, Vetmedin Hard 5mg 1 Capsule (Pimobendan) must be prescribed by a veterinary surgeon after a thorough examination and diagnosis. Weldricks Pharmacy offers a secure and convenient service for fulfilling your dog's Vetmedin prescription online, ensuring you receive genuine medication with professional care. We pride ourselves on friendly service, accessible information, and professional care, supporting pet owners across the UK.

Directions


Vetmedin capsules should be administered orally (approximately one hour before feeding) at a dose of 0.2 mg to 0.6 mg pimobendan/kg body weight per day. The daily dose should be divided into two equal administrations, one half of the dose given in the morning and the other half approximately 12 hours later.
Determine the bodyweight accurately before prescribing to ensure administration of the correct dosage.
In cases of mild congestive heart failure, a daily dosage at the lower end of the dose range may be adequate. If, however, a clear response is not observable within one week, the dosage should be raised.
Vetmedin capsules may be combined with a diuretic treatment such as frusemide.
