| Indications | For use with phenobarbitone as an aid in the treatment of refractory canine epilepsy. Potassium bromide should be used in conjunction with phenobarbitone when seizures continue despite persistent trough phenobarbitone levels above 30 microgram/mL for one or two months.Criteria for classifying idiopathic canine epileptics as refractory to phenobarbitone are: 1) seizure cause not identified; 2) phenobarbitone administered for at least three months with serum trough concentrations from 20 to 40 microgram/mL and a steady state trough concentration of 30 microgram/mL without a subsequent change in dosage for at least one month before bromide initiation; and 3) seizure number and severity unchanged for at least three months despite therapy.Bromide therapy can also be commenced if there is evidence of hepatotoxicity which requires reduction in dosage of the antiepileptic. Concurrent bromide therapy can result in partial or complete control of epileptic seizures in a high percentage of cases. |

Important information to know when ordering prescription medicines
A prescription is required from your veterinarian before we can supply this product.
If this is a new prescription, to enable immediate dispensing, please ask the vet to send a copy of the prescription to us prior to mailing it.
If the original prescription is in your possession, then please upload this to your pet's profile in VetRx prior to mailing it.
Please note that we must receive either a copy of the prescription from the vet, or the original prescription before we can dispatch your order. This does unfortunately add to the order processing time, however this is a requirement placed upon all pharmacies by the Health Regulators.
Only once a conformant electronic prescription system is approved by NSW Health, will we be able to end the need for paper prescriptions.
How Much Does Shipping Cost?
Small orders (less than 500g) cost $9.90 to be delivered anywhere in Australia. For larger orders, shipping costs are calculated on distance and weight (leaving Sydney) and an exact price can be obtained in the shopping cart prior to checkout.
Pet Pharmacy Australia applies a shipping discount on orders over $150. A discount of $9.90 is automatically applied during checkout. Additional shipping costs for bulky goods or priority delivery are paid by the customer.
The weight limit for Australia Post is 22kg and orders that weigh more than this cannot be shipped. We recommend placing multiple smaller orders to work around this problem.
