10mg Palladia is a prescription medication used to treat mast cell tumours in dogs. Each tablet contains 10mg of toceranib phosphate, a targeted therapy designed to slow tumour growth and prevent the spread of cancer cells.

Palladia is the first veterinary-approved cancer treatment specifically developed for dogs. It is commonly prescribed for dogs with grade II or III mast cell tumours that have spread or cannot be surgically removed. This medication works by blocking signals that allow tumour cells to grow, helping to manage the progression of the disease.

How 10mg Palladia Works

Palladia contains toceranib phosphate, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) that disrupts cancer cell growth. Tyrosine kinases are enzymes that regulate cell division and blood vessel formation. In mast cell tumours, these enzymes can become overactive, leading to uncontrolled tumour growth.

Palladia works by:

• Blocking tyrosine kinase activity, which prevents tumour cells from dividing and multiplying.
• Cutting off the blood supply to the tumour, restricting its ability to grow.
• Targeting cancerous cells while minimising damage to healthy tissue.

By interfering with these cancer growth mechanisms, Palladia helps slow the progression of mast cell tumours and may reduce their size over time. Some dogs experience tumour shrinkage, while others may see slowed disease progression.

Cartrophen Vet Injectable is a veterinary treatment designed to support dogs suffering from arthritis and degenerative joint disease. It contains pentosan polysulphate sodium, an active ingredient that promotes cartilage repair, improves joint lubrication, and reduces inflammation.

Arthritis and degenerative joint disease are common conditions in ageing dogs and those with joint abnormalities. These conditions cause pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility, affecting a dog’s quality of life. Cartrophen Vet works by targeting the underlying causes of joint degeneration, helping to slow the progression of the disease and improve comfort.

Cartrophen Vet is administered as a series of injections by a veterinary professional. The treatment helps protect and restore joint function, allowing dogs to remain active for longer.

How Cartrophen Vet Works

Cartrophen Vet contains pentosan polysulphate sodium, a disease-modifying osteoarthritis drug (DMOAD) that works in multiple ways to support joint health. It helps to improve blood flow to joint tissues, promoting healing and reducing the breakdown of cartilage.

The active ingredient stimulates the production of proteoglycans, essential components of cartilage that help maintain joint structure and function. By increasing proteoglycan production, Cartrophen Vet supports the repair of damaged cartilage and slows further degeneration.

Pentosan polysulphate sodium also enhances joint lubrication by increasing the production of synovial fluid. This helps to reduce friction between joint surfaces, improving mobility and decreasing discomfort.

Cartrophen Vet has anti-inflammatory properties that help reduce swelling and pain in affected joints. Unlike non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), which primarily focus on symptom relief, Cartrophen Vet addresses the underlying causes of arthritis and degenerative joint disease.

16mg Apoquel for dogs is a prescription medication that is used to treat a variety of skin conditions in dogs. Apoquel works by blocking the signals that cause itching and inflammation, providing relief from symptoms associated with acute and chronic canine pruritus.

Canine pruritus (itchiness) is a condition that causes itching and inflammation of the skin in dogs. This condition can be caused by a variety of factors, including allergies, fleas, mites, and bacterial infections. Acute pruritus is a sudden onset of itching, while chronic pruritus is a more persistent form of itching that lasts for an extended period. Both types of pruritus can be debilitating for dogs, causing discomfort, pain, and even skin infections.

16mg Apoquel for dogs works by inhibiting the production of cytokines, which are molecules that contribute to inflammation and itching. By blocking these signals, Apoquel helps to reduce inflammation and provide relief from itching. Unlike other medications that suppress the immune system, Apoquel targets only the cells involved in the inflammatory response, minimizing the risk of side effects.

30ml Semintra for Cats is a revolutionary product designed to combat proteinuria associated with CKD. Chronic kidney disease (CKD) in cats is a prevalent condition, especially as they age. One of the significant concerns associated with CKD is proteinuria, the unwanted loss of proteins in the urine. Addressing this issue is crucial for the overall health and well-being of your cat.

Proteinuria is not just a symptom but a direct contributor to the progression of CKD in cats. When proteins, which are usually retained in the body, are lost through urine, it can lead to a decrease in protein levels in the blood. This can result in various complications, including an imbalance in fluid retention and susceptibility to infections. Therefore, managing proteinuria is a pivotal step in treating CKD.

Semintra 30ml for Cats is an oral solution containing telmisartan, an active substance that plays a crucial role in reducing proteinuria. Telmisartan is an angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB). It works by modulating the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS), a system that can contribute to kidney damage when overactivated. By blocking specific receptors in this system, Semintra for Cats ensures that the harmful effects are mitigated, leading to a reduction in proteinuria.
