    About this item
    DESCRIPTION:

    Clopidogrel is an anti-platelet drug administered orally to cats who have cardiomyopathy or dogs who have underlying hypercoagulability. It is impressively anti-platelet in cats, offering a wide range of dosage rates. It is particularly beneficial for animals who are aspirin-intolerant. Clopidrogel and similar cardiac drugs are frequently used to treat the symptoms of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) in cats, and it is also used to treat dogs for immune-mediated hemolytic anemia.

    Key Benefits:

  • Clopidogrel irreversibly inhibits platelet cell membrane adenosine disphosphate receptors.
  • It is known as a prodrug, which undergoes hepatic metabolism to become the active metabolite.

    Formulated For: Dogs and cats.
