KARSIVAN for dogs 100 film-coated tab. propentofylline dogs Additional Information:
Pharmacological studies on the effect of the preparation on rats, dogs, cats, rabbits and monkeys showed a clear improvement in the microcirculation in the heart area, in the brain and in the skeletal muscles. Furthermore, it has been shown that the flow properties of the blood are favored and the oxygen supply in the peripheral and cerebral areas is increased. When examining this effect in the clinical trial, propentofylline was mainly used in older dogs with symptoms such as sluggishness, tiredness, apathy, stiff gait, difficulty getting up and walking, poor appetite, emaciation, hair loss, and dull coat. There were indications of an improvement in these complaints.
Depending on the symptoms of the disease, the effect can already set in after a few days.
Propentofylline proved to be well tolerated when administered daily to dogs for one year in the uppermost range of the intended dose. Vomiting and a tendency to changes in the red blood count were only found at a greatly increased dose.
