Description
100ml Thyronorm for Cats - An effective treatment for Hyperthyroidism in cats
Thyronorm may only be supplied with a valid veterinary prescription issued by your vet. You should only purchase Thyronorm if you have or are in the process of arranging such a prescription. See information bar for further details.
Thyronorm Oral Solution for Cats contains 5mg/ml thiamazole and can be used for the stabilisation of hyperthyroidism in cats prior to surgical thyroidectomy and for the long term treatment of feline hyperthyroidism
Thyronorm is for oral use in Cats only. 100ml Thyronorm for Cats should be administered directly into the mouth of the cat. Do not administer Thyronorm in food as efficacy of the product when administered via this route has not been established. For the stabilisation of feline hyperthyroidism prior to surgical thyroidectomy and for the long term treatment of feline hyperthyroidism, the recommended starting dose is 5mg Thyronorm per day. The total daily dose should be divided into two and administered morning and evening.
In order to enhance stabilisation of the hyperthyroid patient the same dosing schedule relative to feeding should be used daily. Haematology, biochemistry and serum total T4 should be assessed before initiating treatment with Thyronorm and after 3 weeks, 6 weeks, 10 weeks, 20 weeks, and thereafter every 3 months. At each of the recommended monitoring intervals, the dose of Thyronorm should be titrated to effect according to the total T4 and to clinical response to treatment. Standard dose adjustments should be made in increments of 2.5 mg (0.5 ml) and the aim should be to achieve the lowest possible dose rate. In cats that require particularly small dose adjustments, increments of 1.25 mg (0.25 ml) can be used.
If total T4 concentration drops below the lower end of the reference interval, and particularly if the cat is showing clinical signs of iatrogenic hypothyroidism (e.g. lethargy, inappetence, weight gain and/or dermatological signs such as alopecia and dry skin), consideration should be given to reducing the daily dosage of Thyronorm and/or dosing frequency. If more than 10mg per day of 100ml Thyronorm for Cats is required animals should be monitored particularly carefully. The dose of Thyronorm administered should not exceed 20mg per day. For long-term treatment of hyperthyroidism, the animal should be treated for life.

Aktivait for Cats: Cognitive Health Support for Ageing Cats
Aktivait for Cats is a scientifically formulated supplement that supports brain health in older cats. As cats age, cognitive decline can affect their behaviour, memory, and quality of life. Aktivait combines a unique blend of antioxidants, essential nutrients, and neuroprotective ingredients that help maintain mental sharpness and promote overall cognitive function.
Designed for long-term use, Aktivait is an effective way to support your cat’s brain health and improve their mental wellbeing as they age.
How Aktivait for Cats Works
Ageing can bring changes to the brain that impact a cat's memory, behaviour, and ability to learn. These changes are often caused by oxidative stress, which damages brain cells over time. Reduced blood flow, inflammation, and declining levels of essential neurotransmitters can also contribute to cognitive dysfunction.
Aktivait for Cats is formulated to counteract these age-related changes by:
- Combating oxidative stress: Antioxidants in Aktivait neutralise free radicals, reducing damage to brain cells and promoting healthy cognitive function.
- Supporting neurotransmitter production: Ingredients like acetyl-L-carnitine help maintain the levels of neurotransmitters, which are essential for communication between brain cells.
- Improving energy metabolism: Coenzyme Q10 and other nutrients enhance cellular energy production, ensuring that brain cells function efficiently.
- Reducing inflammation: Aktivait includes omega-3 fatty acids, which have anti-inflammatory properties that protect the brain and support overall cognitive health.
These ingredients work together to help maintain your cat’s memory, alertness, and quality of life as they age.
Vidalta 10mg Tablet for Cats - per Tablet
Vidalta 10mg is a prescription medication used to manage hyperthyroidism in cats. It contains the active ingredient carbimazole, which helps regulate excessive thyroid hormone production. Vidalta is designed for long-term use and is available in a controlled-release tablet formulation.
What is Hyperthyroidism in Cats?
Hyperthyroidism is a common endocrine disorder in older cats. It occurs when the thyroid glands produce an excessive amount of thyroid hormones, particularly thyroxine (T4). These hormones regulate metabolism, and when levels become too high, a cat’s body functions accelerate beyond normal rates.
Hyperthyroidism affects multiple organs and systems. The increased metabolic rate can lead to significant weight loss, despite an increased appetite. Cats with this condition often experience behavioural changes, digestive issues, and heart problems if left untreated.
Signs of Hyperthyroidism in Cats
Cats with hyperthyroidism often display noticeable behavioural and physical changes. Common symptoms include:
- Weight loss despite an increased appetite
- Hyperactivity or restlessness
- Excessive thirst and urination
- Vomiting or diarrhoea
- Poor coat condition or hair loss
- Increased heart rate (tachycardia)
- Weakness or muscle wasting
- Changes in behaviour, including aggression or vocalisation
If hyperthyroidism is left untreated, it can lead to secondary complications, including high blood pressure (hypertension), heart disease, and kidney problems.

30ml Thyronorm for Cats 5mg/ml Oral Solution
Managing Hyperthyroidism in Cats
Thyronorm 30ml is a veterinary medicine formulated to treat hyperthyroidism in cats. It contains the active ingredient thiamazole, which helps regulate the production of thyroid hormones. Hyperthyroidism is a common condition in older cats, leading to weight loss, increased appetite, hyperactivity, and other metabolic changes.
Hyperthyroidism occurs when the thyroid gland produces excessive amounts of thyroxine (T4), a hormone responsible for regulating metabolism. Elevated thyroid hormone levels can cause a range of symptoms that affect a cat’s overall health. Without treatment, the condition can lead to complications affecting the heart, kidneys, and other organs.
Thyronorm helps control thyroid hormone production, restoring balance to the cat’s metabolism. Proper management of hyperthyroidism can improve quality of life and reduce the risk of long-term complications.
How 30ml Thyronorm Works
Thyronorm contains thiamazole, a medication that inhibits the excessive production of thyroid hormones. It works by blocking the enzyme thyroid peroxidase, which is essential for the synthesis of thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3). By reducing hormone production, Thyronorm helps regulate metabolism and alleviates the symptoms of hyperthyroidism.
Thiamazole does not cure hyperthyroidism but provides ongoing management of the condition. Regular administration is necessary to maintain stable thyroid hormone levels. Adjustments to dosage may be required based on veterinary monitoring and blood test results.
