Vomend® is a NEW veterinary licensed metoclopramide from Eurovet that can be used to treat vomiting and reduced gastro-intestinal motility in both dogs and cats. Over the years, vets have often had little choice but to use metoclopramide preparations designed for human use – therefore effectively off-licence. This new preparation will allow vets to use a medication they know is of great benefit in treating dogs and cats, without taking all the additional precautions required for off-licence use, such as having clients sign consent forms.
The product can also be used in puppies and kittens. Severe vomiting in young puppies particularly, can quickly lead to dehydration and depression, so it is vital to control the clinical signs and prevent fluid loss. Vomend® will be particularly useful in this regard. As well as being an anti-emetic Vomend® is also a pro-kinetic upper GI tract stimulant, so it is indicated for use in chronic nephritis, pyloric spasm and drug induced digestive intolerance.
Vomend® will be available in 20 ml and 10 ml vials, providing greater flexibility over usage and stock control. For further information on Vomend® contact Eurovet on 01223 257933 or order direct from your wholesaler from early February.
