Famvir is an antiviral medication used to treat viral infections in pets, such as feline herpesvirus. Famvir works by preventing the viral cells from multiplying, which can help reduce the severity and duration of symptoms. Famvir can help control feline herpesvirus infections, which can cause eye problems and upper respiratory tract symptoms, as well as canine distemper virus infections, which can cause neurological signs such as seizures. Always speak with your veterinarian about the benefits and risks of using Famvir in your pet.
Yes, Famvir for animals is the same medicine as Famvir for humans. However, your pet should only be given Famvir if specifically prescribed by a veterinarian, as it will need to be administered differently.
The dosage of Famvir for pets depends on the type, severity, and duration of infection. You must follow your veterinarian’s instructions when administering this medication. The typical dose range for oral administration in cats is 8-30 mg/kg divided twice daily or 10-20 mg/kg once daily. Your veterinarian will determine the exact dosage for your pet. At HealthExpress, Famvir is available as 125mg, 250mg and 500mg tablets.
Famvir can be administered in tablet form orally. Always follow your veterinarian’s instructions when administering this medication, as improper dosage could cause serious side effects or even death. If you are giving Famvir orally, ensure that your pet swallows the tablet and does not chew it.
The effects of Famvir can vary depending on the type, severity, and duration of infection. In general, it takes 1-2 weeks for the virus to be fully eliminated from an infected animal. It is important to follow your veterinarian’s instructions closely when using this medication in order to maximize its effectiveness.
The most common side effects of Famvir in cats include vomiting, diarrhoea, and loss of appetite. Less common side effects could include liver toxicity or kidney damage. If you notice any side effects after giving your pet Famvir, contact your veterinarian immediately.
Famvir is a prescription medication, so it can only be obtained via a prescription from a vet. Once a prescription has been issued, Famvir can be purchased from either the vet clinic or a pharmacy. Online pharmacies such as HealthExpress accepts vet prescriptions, so you can order your pet's Famvir treatment conveniently online at an affordable price.
If you have a veterinary prescription for Famvir, simply select the medicine and complete your order. You must ensure you have selected the correct dosage and quantity prescribed by the vet. Then, you will need to send us the original vet prescription before we can dispatch your pet's treatment.
