Atopica dosage scheme: Body weight of dog Number of capsules given to obtain recommended dose Atopica 10 mg Atopica 25 mg Atopica 50 mg Atopica 100 mg 2 to < 3 kg 1 capsule 3 to < 4 kg 2 capsules 4 to < 7.5 kg 1 capsule 7.5 to < 15 kg 1 capsule 15 to < 29 kg 1 capsule 29 to < 36 kg 3 capsules 36 to 55 kg 2 capsules Atopica will initially be given daily until a satisfactory clinical improvement is seen. This will generally be the case within 4 weeks. If no response is obtained within the first 8 weeks the treatment should be stopped. Once the clinical signs of atopic dermatitis are satisfactorily controlled the preparation can then be given every other day as a maintenance dose. The veterinary surgeon should perform a clinical assessment at regular intervals and adjust the frequency of administration to the clinical response obtained.
In some cases where the clinical signs are controlled with every-other-day dosing the veterinary surgeon can decide to give Atopica every 3 to 4 days. Adjunct treatment (e.g. medicated shampoos fatty acids) may be considered before reducing the dosing interval. Treatment may be stopped when the clinical signs are controlled. Upon recurrence of clinical signs treatment should be resumed at daily dosing and in certain cases repeated treatment courses may be required.
Atopica should be given at least 2 hours before or after feeding. Insert the capsule directly into the dog's mouth.

Gomega Fish Oil Supplement – Omega-3 Support for Dogs
Gomega Fish Oil Supplement is a high-quality source of omega-3 fatty acids designed to support overall canine health. It contains essential fatty acids, including eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), which play a vital role in maintaining a healthy skin and coat, joint function, cardiovascular health, and cognitive function. This supplement is particularly beneficial for dogs with inflammatory conditions, dry skin, or mobility issues.
What Are Omega-3 Fatty Acids?
Omega-3 fatty acids are essential nutrients that dogs must obtain through their diet. They are not produced naturally by the body, making dietary supplementation an important way to ensure adequate intake. The primary sources of omega-3s are marine-based oils, such as fish oil, which provide EPA and DHA. These fatty acids contribute to various physiological functions, including reducing inflammation, maintaining skin integrity, and supporting brain development.
Dogs that do not receive enough omega-3s may experience dry skin, excessive shedding, joint stiffness, and reduced cognitive function. Supplementing with a high-quality fish oil can help address these deficiencies and promote long-term health.
