What is Premarin?
Premarin is a medication that contains conjugated estrogens derived from the urine of pregnant mares (horses). It is commonly used in veterinary medicine to treat hormonal imbalances in animals, particularly female dogs and cats. Premarin may be prescribed by veterinarians to manage conditions such as urinary incontinence, certain reproductive disorders, and hormonal deficiencies in pets. It is important to follow your veterinarian's instructions carefully when administering Premarin to your pet to ensure their health and well-being.
What problems could my pet have with Premarin?
While Premarin can be effective in treating hormonal imbalances in pets, there are potential side effects and risks associated with its use. Some common problems that pets may experience with Premarin include: 1. **Allergic reactions:** Some pets may be allergic to the medication, leading to symptoms such as itching, hives, swelling, or difficulty breathing. 2. **Gastrointestinal issues:** Premarin can sometimes cause digestive problems in pets, including nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, or loss of appetite. 3. **Changes in behavior:** Hormonal medications like Premarin can affect your pet's behavior, potentially leading to mood swings, aggression, or changes in activity levels. 4. **Fluid retention:** Pets taking Premarin may experience fluid retention, which can manifest as swelling in the limbs or abdomen. 5. **Increased risk of certain health conditions:** Long-term use of Premarin may increase the risk of developing certain health conditions, such as uterine or mammary tumors in female pets. It's important to monitor your pet closely while they are taking Premarin and report any concerning symptoms to your veterinarian promptly. Your vet can help you assess the risks and benefits of using Premarin for your pet's specific condition and make any necessary adjustments to their treatment plan.
Is there anything I need to know about administering Premarin?
When administering Premarin to your pet, it is crucial to follow your veterinarian's instructions precisely. Here are some key points to keep in mind: 1. **Dosage:** Administer the prescribed dosage of Premarin as directed by your veterinarian. Do not increase or decrease the dosage without consulting your vet. 2. **Administration:** Premarin is typically available in tablet form. Make sure to give the medication to your pet with food to help minimize any potential gastrointestinal issues. 3. **Consistency:** Try to administer Premarin at the same time each day to maintain a consistent level of the medication in your pet's system. 4. **Monitoring:** Keep a close eye on your pet for any signs of allergic reactions, gastrointestinal issues, changes in behavior, fluid retention, or other side effects mentioned earlier. If you notice any concerning symptoms, contact your veterinarian immediately. 5. **Regular check-ups:** Schedule regular follow-up appointments with your vet to monitor your pet's response to the medication and make any necessary adjustments to the treatment plan. By following these guidelines and staying in close communication with your veterinarian, you can help ensure the safe and effective administration of Premarin to your pet.
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.
