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.

100mg Pexion is a treatment for dogs with primary epilepsy. Pexion acts on a specific receptor in the brain cells to reduce the amount of excessive electrical activity present.

Pexion is is specifically designed to reduce the number of seizures your dog has and the impact they have on your dog’s life. This can mean a more normal life for them, less disruption to you, and less stress for the whole family.

30ml Propalin Syrup is used for the treatment of urinary incontinence associated with urethral sphincter incompetence in the bitch. The condition is particularly prevalent during the first three months of pregnancy and during whelping. Propalin is also used in cases of spay incontinence.

VET PRESCRIPTION REQUIRED

Propalin 100ml is a veterinary medication used to manage urinary incontinence in dogs caused by urethral sphincter incompetence. It contains phenylpropanolamine, a compound that strengthens the muscles controlling the bladder, reducing involuntary urine leakage. Propalin is commonly prescribed for spayed female dogs, as they are more prone to this condition due to hormonal changes affecting sphincter function.

Urinary incontinence is a condition where a dog is unable to control urination, often resulting in leakage during rest or sleep. It is commonly seen in middle-aged and older dogs but can occur in younger animals as well. Propalin helps restore bladder control, improving the dog's comfort and hygiene while reducing the need for frequent cleaning of bedding and living areas.

How Propalin Works

Propalin contains phenylpropanolamine hydrochloride, a sympathomimetic agent that stimulates alpha-adrenergic receptors. These receptors play a crucial role in maintaining urethral sphincter tone, which is necessary for preventing urine leakage. By increasing the contraction strength of the urethral sphincter, Propalin helps dogs regain better bladder control.

The active ingredient in Propalin works by enhancing the tone of the smooth muscle surrounding the urethra. This prevents involuntary leakage by keeping the bladder outlet closed when the dog is at rest. Unlike hormone-based treatments, Propalin directly targets the muscular function of the urethral sphincter without affecting the dog’s overall hormone levels.

The medication is typically administered as an oral syrup, allowing for easy dosage adjustments based on the dog's weight and severity of symptoms. It is usually given two to three times daily, as recommended by a veterinarian. Regular use can significantly reduce urine leakage and improve a dog's ability to maintain normal bladder function.

Pardale-V is a prescription medication used to relieve mild to moderate pain in dogs. It contains two active ingredients, paracetamol and codeine, which work together to provide effective pain management. This medication is commonly used to treat musculoskeletal pain, joint discomfort, and post-operative pain.

Pardale-V is formulated as an oral tablet, making it easy to administer. It is only available with a veterinary prescription and should always be used under veterinary supervision.

How Pardale-V Works

Pardale-V combines two pain-relieving compounds:

• Paracetamol – A widely used analgesic and antipyretic that reduces pain and fever. It works by inhibiting the production of prostaglandins, chemicals in the body responsible for pain and inflammation. By blocking these chemicals, paracetamol helps reduce pain perception.

• Codeine – An opioid analgesic that provides additional pain relief by acting on the central nervous system. Codeine binds to opioid receptors in the brain and spinal cord, altering the way pain signals are processed and reducing the sensation of pain.

The combination of these two active ingredients makes Pardale-V effective in managing pain while minimising inflammation and discomfort.
