Cerenia Tablets 24mg (4 tablets)

Directions for Use

For oral use in dogs.
For Treatment and Prevention of Vomiting (except Motion Sickness)
Cerenia tablets should be administered once daily, at a dose of 2 mg maropitant per kg bodyweight, using the number of tablets given in the table below. Tablets are breakable along the score line on the tablet.
To prevent vomiting, tablets should be given more than 1 hour in advance. The duration of the effect is approximately 24 hours and, therefore, tablets can be given the night before administration of an agent that may cause emesis (e.g. chemotherapy).
Cerenia can be used as either tablets or Solution for Injection once daily for up to five consecutive days to treat vomiting.
Cerenia tablets are effective in the treatment of vomiting, however in cases of frequent vomiting it is recommended to initiate treatment with Cerenia Solution for Injection. See data sheet for dosing table.

Cerenia tablets should be administered once daily, at a dose of 8 mg maropitant per kg bodyweight, using the numbers of tablets given in the table below. Tablets are breakable along the score line on the tablet.
Tablets should be administered at least one hour before starting the journey. The anti-emetic effect persists for at least 12 hours, which for convenience may allow administration the night before early morning travel. Treatment may be repeated for a maximum of two consecutive days.
In some individual dogs and when repeating the treatment, lower doses than recommended might be sufficient. See data sheet for dosing table in prevention of motion sickness only.

To remove a tablet from the blister the following sequence should be carried out;
?Firstly, fold or cut along the perforation between each tablet as shown by the scissor symbol.
?Find the pull-back notch (or cut) as shown by the arrow symbol.
?Holding one side of the cut firmly, pull the other side towards the centre of the blister until the tablet is visible.
?Remove table from blister and administer as instructed.
Note: No attempt should be made to remove the tablet by pushing it through the blister backing as this will damage both the tablet and blister.
A light meal or snack before dosing is recommended; prolonged fasting before administration should be avoided. Cerenia tablets should not be administered wrapped or encapsulated in food as this may delay dissolution of the tablet and consequently the onset of the effect.
Dogs should be carefully observed following administration to ensure that each tablet is swallowed.
