Atopica Oral Solution for Cats and Dogs
Description
Atopica Solution contain Ciclosporin at a concentration of 100mg/ml. This medication is licensed for the treatment of chronic manifestations of atopic dermatitis in dogs and symptomatic treatment of chronic allergic dermatitis in cats.
Ciclosporin (also known as cyclosporin) is a selective immunosuppressor. It exerts anti-inflammatory and antipruritic effects in the treatment of atopic dermatitis.
This is a prescription only medication and must be used as directed by the prescribing veterinary surgeon.
Precautions:
Clinical signs of atopic or allergic dermatitis such as pruritus and skin inflammation are not specific for this disease and therefore other causes of dermatitis such as ectoparasitic infestations, other allergies which cause dermatological signs (e.g. flea allergic dermatitis or food allergy) or bacterial and fungal infections should be ruled out before treatment is started. It is good practice to treat flea infestations before and during treatment of atopic or allergic dermatitis.
Not for use in FIV or FeLV positive cats.
Available in 2 sizes: 5ml and 17ml bottles.
