There are also 30,50,120 and 200 tablets in jars with a lid. One tablet contains 15 mg of active substance. In addition to the active substance, the composition contains talc.

The active substance of two different release forms is the same - ethylmethylhydroxypyridine succinate.

Note! If the dog owner does not know how to give injections, then it is better to choose the capsule method for taking the pet’s drug.

When should emicidin be used?

First, you need to read the instructions for use in detail, which will indicate that it is better to use this drug:

  1. If your dog is experiencing oxygen starvation.
  2. Heart diseases in chronic and acute forms.
  3. If your pet has cardiopulmonary failure.

Remember. Emicidin can be used to prevent the above diseases.

Below is a list of when you can use the drug with other substances:

  1. Stressful situations.
  2. For skin damage (burns, wounds).
  3. For ulcers that are very difficult to heal.
  4. In any malfunction of the digestive system.
  5. As well as dermatitis, necrosis and inflammation, which have passed into the purulent stage. Composition of the device in tablets and vaccine.

Dosage for dogs and puppies

The drug has no restrictions on the age of the dog. You can also administer or give the drug to puppies.

The dose should be calculated by a veterinarian and depends on many indications:

  1. - weight of the dog;
  2. - dog problems;

For prophylaxis, the drug is given once a day for 15–30 days. If it is necessary to undergo a course of treatment, give it 2 times a day for 10 to 30 days.

Remember that the dosage is different for different breeds, since all dogs weigh different amounts of kg.

  • Small breeds (5 – 10 kg) should be given 1 capsule (15 mg).
  • For medium-sized breeds (10 - 30 kg), give 2 capsules (15 mg each).
  • Large breeds (30 – 50 kg), for these dogs take 1 capsule of 50 mg.
  • And dogs heavier than 50 kg should be given 2-3 capsules with a dosage of 50 mg.

Effect of the drug

The drug combines free radicals and slows down lipid oxidation in tissues.

This circumstance allows the cells to receive more oxygen, which means it creates conditions for the supply of energy to them, which makes it possible to exhibit high activity.

After injection, the body quickly absorbs the active substance and delivers it to the tissues. Oral administration slows down the rate of distribution; maximum activity occurs only after absorption of the component in the stomach. The drug is excreted in the urine after 4-6 hours.

Owner reviews

Margarita, the owner of the collie:

“Our dog is already 16 years old. A friend advised me to give Emicidin to maintain health. After the course, the dog clearly came to life, became more active and playful, began to run more, and her appetite improved. I think this is a very good remedy for older dogs. It has no contraindications, so it can be used without restrictions.”

Igor, Rottweiler owner:

“We noticed that in the 7th year of his life, our dog Rocky began to have difficulty running. At the slightest exertion he began to breathe heavily. After examination, doctors diagnosed heart failure. We completed a full course of treatment, after which the dog felt much better. The veterinarian advised the use of Emicidin for prevention. The injections are painful, so we buy capsules. We take the course twice a year. It is impossible to cure Rocky completely, but this drug prolongs his life, so I sincerely thank the developers.”

When is Emicidin used?

Emicidin can be used:

  • For minor burns;
  • For frostbite;
  • For skin inflammation (dermatitis, etc.);
  • For cuts and other injuries;
  • For cardiovascular failure;
  • To speed up the recovery process after surgery;
  • Thanks to its antioxidant and anxiolytic effects, Emicidi promotes tissue healing.

The drug also has stress-protective properties, which helps animals with increased mental excitability.

During moves or noisy holidays, when the animal is exposed to severe stress, the drug helps prevent neuroses and makes it easier to bear stress.

It should be noted about the effect of the drug on elderly animals. Thanks to the general tonic effects that the drug has on tissue, pets’ coat, skin and claw condition improves, and most importantly, due to improved cerebral circulation, the active period in the animal’s life is extended.

Purpose

Thanks to its antioxidant properties, Emicidin slows down oxidative processes in cells, thereby blocking one of the main mechanisms for the development of pathological processes in the body's systems. Veterinarians use the drug in combination therapy:

  • pathological conditions associated with oxygen starvation;
  • pulmonary and heart failure;
  • chronic cerebrovascular accidents;
  • inflammatory processes in the body;
  • skin lesions (wounds, eczema, trophic ulcers, dermatitis, etc.);
  • diseases of the locomotor system.

In fact, while not being a medicine, Emicidin has good anti-inflammatory and wound-healing effects, due to which the drug is used in the postoperative period to speed up the recovery of the body. In addition, Emicidin before surgery makes it possible to reduce the dose of anesthesia and reduce the risk of postoperative complications.

The use of the drug made it possible to establish one more of its properties: calming. Animals with an unbalanced psyche taking Emicidin tolerate noise effects much easier - they are not afraid of loud and sharp sounds (firecrackers, fireworks, gunshots, thunder, etc.).

Important!

The composition of the drug is as close as possible to natural components, so taking Emicidin does not cause negative consequences and is safe for the animal’s body.

Emicidin can be used as a prophylaxis for pathological conditions or for therapeutic purposes when the disease has been confirmed in clinical tests and the results of other examinations. The drug will help avoid exacerbation of chronic diseases, reduce the number of colds in the autumn-winter period, and increase immunity.

Age-related diseases in cats

Aging is not a disease, it is a biological process that represents a gradual irreversible loss of the body's functionality, a change in its response to external factors and stimuli, resulting in increased vulnerability to disease. Age-related changes affect vital systems of the body: cardiovascular, respiratory, excretory systems, liver and other organs. It is in older animals that the tendency appears:

  • to heart pathologies;
  • diabetes mellitus;
  • thyroid dysfunction;
  • osteoarthritis;
  • periodontal diseases, etc.

These and other pathologies in cats, which develop more often in old age, are easily treatable in the early stages, but the main danger is that at the very beginning of their development they are practically asymptomatic. Therefore, it is important to regularly visit the veterinarian even with young animals, and even more so when the cat’s age approaches seven years. This will prevent geriatric diseases and prolong the pet’s life without deteriorating its quality.

In old age, Emicidin slows down free radical oxidation in the body. Studies have shown that after just two weeks of using the drug, animals feel better, which also affects the appearance of pets, the quality of their coat, and the cats’ motor activity increases.

Composition and release form

Emicidin is available in the form of small capsules and liquid for injection. The package may contain ten or twenty tablets, packed in blisters and placed in cardboard boxes. There is another type of packaging - plastic jars with lids, they can contain 30, 50, 120 or 200 tablets. One tablet contains 15 mg or 50 mg of the active ingredient. Each package of the medicinal substance contains detailed instructions. The owner of the animal should carefully study the composition and become familiar with the dosage principle so as not to harm his pet.

The solution is sold in glass ampoules with a volume of 1 to 10 ml. There are ten ampoules in one package. The concentration of the active component in 1 ampoule is 2.5% or 5%. Liquid for injection is colorless.

Both products contain ethylmethylhydroxypyridine succinate, the active substance. In addition, the capsules contain talc and various preservatives. In addition to the main component, the liquid medicine contains a special solution for injection.

Composition of the drug

The drug contains the following components:

  • The active ingredient is a compound with the terrible name ethylmethylhydroxypyridine succinate. Despite the complexity of the term, it is very useful, as it is an extremely powerful antioxidant and prevents the development of hypoxia even in serious cardiovascular diseases. Simply put, even with serious lung problems, the dog will have a much better chance of not dying from suffocation. In addition, this compound stabilizes the pet’s condition, improves the quality and duration of its life, which is very important when treating old and sick animals. Succinate also improves blood supply and trophism of cells and tissues.
  • Talc and gelatin. The first is used as a filler, the second as a material for capsule shells.

Description and benefits

Emicidin is a drug that helps with oxygen starvation and various diseases of the cardiovascular system. This medication is widely used among veterinarians and pet owners. Main advantages:

  1. It is an antioxidant and a new generation remedy for hypoxia.
  2. Slows down the aging of animals.
  3. Very effective for cardiovascular and pulmonary pathologies.
  4. Can be used as a preventive measure.
  5. Improves the pet's quality of life.
  6. Speeds up the rehabilitation period.
  7. Allows you to save on treatment.

It is important to remember that you can start giving the drug to an animal only after consulting a veterinarian. Self-treatment can only worsen your cat's health.

But still the medicine has a fourth class of danger. This means that it is low-risk. The medication often does not cause any allergic reactions.

pharmachologic effect

The product is an antioxidant. The main active ingredient is ethylmethylhydroxypyridine succinate. This component is an inhibitor of free radical processes in the body. Ethylmethylhydroxypyridine succinate also has pronounced antihypoxic and antioxidant properties. In combination with other substances, it has a preventive and therapeutic effect in cardiovascular and pulmonary failure, as well as hypoxia.

The mechanism of action is simple, the drug “can” reduce the oxidation of lipids located in cell membranes, influence the pet’s metabolism and bind free radicals. All this helps increase the pet’s body’s resistance to oxygen deficiency.

After consumption, the drug is quickly absorbed by the dog's stomach. After 5-6 hours, the medicine is eliminated from the body (along with urine), without causing any physical problems to the animal. In terms of the degree of impact on the dog’s body, this medicine is low-hazard.

Although the product can be considered safe, it should not be used without the advice of a veterinarian. “Home” treatment can lead to unpredictable consequences, and instead of helping the dog, you will only aggravate his problem.

Therapeutic effect

Emicidin improves blood circulation in the brain, prevents oxygen deficiency, and affects metabolic processes in the body. The active ingredient of the drug binds free radicals and accelerates their removal from the body. The medicine is used:

  • to reduce blood cholesterol;
  • prevention of heart pathologies;
  • in complex therapy of pulmonary heart failure;
  • to stimulate the heart after illnesses.

The drug is prescribed for animals after injuries and operations. It speeds up rehabilitation, improves wound healing, and has a healing effect on the entire body, helping it recover faster. Taking the medicine helps normalize metabolic processes in the body, develop resistance to viruses and bacteria that attack the animal’s body, and reduces the negative consequences of stressful situations.

Important! It has been scientifically established that taking Emicidin significantly slows down the aging process of the body, which is why it is prescribed to older dogs.

Emicidin has a rapid action: the gelatin capsule dissolves in the stomach and the active substance penetrates the blood. It penetrates through the bloodstream into all tissues and organs, and within 30-60 minutes it begins its beneficial effect. The concentration in the blood reaches its maximum value within 4-5 hours.

Veterinarians prescribe Emicidin for the following pathologies:

  • oxygen deficiency;
  • acute and chronic forms of heart disease;
  • diseases of the gastrointestinal tract;
  • poisoning, intoxication;
  • purulent inflammation, tissue necrosis;
  • wounds, burns, injuries of various kinds with damage to the skin;
  • stress and nervous shock.

Important! For dogs over 7 years of age, the drug is prescribed for the prevention of cardiovascular and other diseases.

The principle of action of Emicidin

The drug helps normalize cerebral circulation and accelerates the delivery of oxygen to tissues. The active component prevents the process of lipid oxidation, which improves the condition of the body as a whole. In addition to these properties, the medication has a positive effect on cell membranes, making them more dense and resistant to hypoxia.

The medicine affects all organs and systems, as it is absorbed into the bloodstream. It has no toxic effects and does not disrupt metabolic processes. In addition, the drug does not affect the intrauterine development of the fetus. The medication has a positive effect on the condition of blood vessels.

The active component is excreted through the kidneys, so if your pet’s organs are not functioning well, you should consult a doctor before starting treatment.

Instructions for use of Emicidin

We remind you once again that the remedy we are describing is a “serious” drug, and therefore the instructions for using Emicidin must be strictly and clearly followed, otherwise the consequences may be serious.

With capsules it’s easiest:

  • During treatment, they are given twice a day, at 12-hour intervals. The course of treatment is from 10 to 30 days.
  • For prevention, the medicine should be given once a day. The duration of the course is up to one and a half months. In the case of prophylactic use, it is repeated after two months in the same doses and with the same frequency.

The capsule form can be given without any reference to feeding time. But there is one important nuance: opening the capsule and mixing its contents with food is strictly prohibited. Since the dog is unlikely to eat the capsule voluntarily, it is placed on the root of the pet’s tongue and the throat is gently massaged to stimulate the swallowing reflex. Since it can be difficult to do this with large pets (and even with aggressive “little things”), it is better to use an injection solution.

The injection solution is used as follows:

It can be administered subcutaneously, intramuscularly and intravenously, and veterinarians advise using intravenous infusions (maximum speed and percentage of absorption). It is advisable to make subcutaneous and intramuscular injections in the area of ​​the scapula and gluteal muscles, respectively.

When administered intravenously, the infusion rate recommended by the manufacturer should be strictly observed: exclusively by drip, from 35 to 60 drops per minute. Jet injection is not permitted.

Injections are given up to two times a day (as in the previous case, it depends on the purpose of use). The course of treatment is a maximum of 15 days, in mild cases a week is enough.

If for some reason you had to miss one or more doses, the supply should be resumed at the time closest to the missed 12-hour cycles. Any change in dosage is strictly prohibited, as nothing good will come of it.

Instructions for administering the vaccine

  1. It is necessary to sanitize your hands and wear medical gloves.
  2. Be careful! The drug can cause allergies not only in dogs, but also in humans.
  3. Next, you need to open the ampoule and draw the substance into a disposable syringe.
  4. It is necessary to calm your pet, pay a little attention so that the dog feels calm and there are no sudden movements.
  5. Disinfect the injection site (withers).
  6. Inject into the withers and administer the drug.
  7. The empty ampoule must be discarded with gloves and syringe.

Indications for taking Emicidin

This drug is used for the purpose of prevention and treatment during chronic, acute cardiovascular or pulmonary failure. In addition, it should be actively used during the recovery of the body after surgery or illness. Also, this remedy can be used in veterinary geriatrics, during the development of early pathologies (this includes wounds, dermatitis, trophic ulcers, frostbite and burns of the skin), pathological conditions that occur together with hypoxia in internal organs, as well as in tissues.

The drug can dissolve very quickly in one medium. Its use is indicated for preventive purposes, but it is also used for therapeutic therapies. The first and most important indication for the use of such a drug is hypoxia of various forms and etiologies. It occurs most often when:

  1. Pregnancy.
  2. Asthma.
  3. Disorders in the cardiovascular system.
  4. Complications that occur during childbirth.
  5. Increased aggression or emotional turmoil.

In order to support the vital forces of the animal’s body, the medicine should be used during the stage of active training, long travel, participation in competitions or exhibitions, championships and various competitions. Used for the purpose of recovery therapy after suffering severe infections and diseases, Emicidin has proven itself only on the positive side. If you have any chronic forms of disease or skin problems, then this remedy will also cope well with the diseases.

Application for puppies

The drug has no restrictions for use by puppies. The dose of emicidin should be calculated by a veterinarian, depending on the weight of the pet and the existing problem.

Features of use in pregnant cats and kittens

The drug can only be used in pets whose weight is at least 3–4 kg, so the medication is not used to treat kittens. During pregnancy and lactation, this drug can be prescribed in minimal dosages. The drug can provoke hypersensitivity reactions, so use it with caution during this period and only after prior consultation with a doctor.

For the treatment of pregnant cats, Emicidin is used only in extreme cases.

Attention! If the integrity of the packaging is damaged, then the medication cannot be used for treatment.

Dosage and procedure for use

The dosage of Emicidin depends on the problem that needs to be eliminated. For preventive purposes, the medicine is given to the pet once a day for 15-30 days. When treating various diseases, the drug is given for 10-30 days (twice a day), in the following doses:

Pet sizeAnimal weight (kg)Emicidin (capsules)
15 mg50 mg
Small breeds5-101
Medium breeds10-302
Large breeds30-501
50 or more2-3

If the animal does not feel better or the symptoms that needed to be eliminated are still noticeable, the course of treatment is repeated, but this can only be done after 1-2 months. The injection solution is administered under the skin at the rate of 1 ml per 10 kg of animal weight (2.5 mg/kg of active substance), duration is 5-15 days, 1-2 injections should be made per day. Only a veterinarian can determine the exact dosage; we are only introducing you to the general principles of using the drug.

Instructions for use of the drug in ampoules:

  1. Wash your hands or wear disposable gloves.
  2. Prepare the drug (draw the solution into a syringe).
  3. Pet the dog, you can talk to it a little, this is necessary so that the dog relaxes and does not resist.
  4. Inject the medicine into the withers.
  5. Throw away the empty ampoule, syringe and gloves.

It is even easier to use Emicidin in capsules; it can be dissolved in water and given to the animal in this form or mixed with food. If you give the tablet in dissolved form, then make sure that your pet eats/drinks all the liquid/food that contains the drug.

How to use

According to the instructions, Emicidin injections for dogs can be given subcutaneously and intramuscularly. You can also administer the drug intravenously by drip at 60 drops per minute. The dose of the drug is 1-4 ml for every 10 kg of weight. The exact dosage should be calculated by the doctor depending on the pathology, symptoms and general condition of the animal. If the product is used to prevent health problems, 1 ml per 10 kg of weight is usually sufficient. Injections are given 1 or 2 times a day. The duration of treatment should also be determined by the veterinarian, but usually the course is 5-15 days.

If the drug is used to maintain health in old animals, then the dose is calculated according to the scheme - 1 ml per 10 kg. Injections are given once a day for 10-30 days. Courses are recommended to be held in spring and autumn.

Capsules are given to dogs forcibly (must be placed on the root of the tongue) 2 times a day if the drug is used for medicinal purposes. For prophylaxis, one dose per day is sufficient. If it is difficult to force-feed the medicine, the contents of the capsule should be poured into a small amount of food. The duration of use is from 10 to 30 days, depending on the general condition of the pet.

A single dose is calculated depending on weight:

  • for dogs weighing from 5 to 10 kg, 1 capsule of 15 mg will be required;
  • for representatives of medium breeds (from 10 to 30 kg) you need to take 2 capsules of 15 mg each;
  • for animals weighing 30-50 kg, 1 capsule of 50 mg is needed;
  • for large pets weighing more than 2-3 capsules of 50 mg should be taken.

Note! Emicidin can be combined with antibacterial and anthelmintic agents, vitamin complexes and other drugs.

Features of use

Emicidin in the form of an injection solution is administered subcutaneously, intramuscularly and intravenously. The best solution would be to entrust the procedure to specialists, although subcutaneous and intramuscular injections can be performed independently. Droppers are used only in hospital settings.

Performing an intramuscular injection:

  1. First you should prepare a syringe with a thin needle. This will make the procedure less painful for the cat.
  2. You need to find the femoral muscle and bone so that you don’t accidentally hit it with a needle. The injection is made in the center of the muscle slightly below the joint.
  3. It is advisable to secure the pet firmly to prevent injury to the cat and the owner. The needle should be inserted at an angle of approximately 1 cm.
  4. Smoothly and in one movement squeeze the medicine out of the syringe. But you cannot do this very quickly, as this will significantly increase the pain.

It is advisable to give each subsequent injection to a different paw. You should not inject in the same place, as this increases the pain. Also, syringes must be sterile, that is, new.

Contraindications and precautions

If you use the drug in recommended doses, then no problems or side effects should occur. However, some pets experience an allergic reaction due to individual intolerance to a particular substance. Be sure to follow the treatment regimen prescribed by your veterinarian for the drug to work as effectively as possible.

The harmlessness of the drug, as well as the absence of side effects, is due to the fact that the active ingredient is a natural substance. Ethylmethylhydroxypyridine succinate is a derivative of succinic acid and vitamin B6. It is also synthesized by the body.

When using the medicine, certain rules must be followed:

  1. The syringe can only be used once. It is best to purchase insulin for injections, as it has a short and very thin needle.
  2. If you do not have any skills, then you should seek help from a specialist to perform the injection.
  3. When mixing the contents of the capsules into food, use a small amount of food. Otherwise, the medicine will not have any effect.
  4. The needle must be inserted no deeper than 1.5 cm.
  5. After performing the injection, you should wash your hands very thoroughly.
  6. Keep the medicine away from children.
  7. You cannot freeze the drug, as it will lose its quality.
  8. Avoid contact of the medication with the eyes. If this happens, you need to rinse with plenty of water.

If an infection occurs during the procedure, there is a possibility of an abscess. Treatment and recovery will be very long and expensive.

Side effects and contraindications

Usually there are no side effects after using the drug. But if you calculate the dosage incorrectly, then unpleasant consequences are guaranteed, including:

  • vomit;
  • allergic reaction;
  • diarrhea;
  • deterioration in health (the disease that you tried to cure may begin to progress).

To avoid unpleasant consequences, consult a veterinarian before taking the medicine and, if necessary, undergo an examination. Don’t waste your time and money, because your pet’s well-being, and maybe even its life, depends on your decision.

The product is moderately dangerous and therefore has a number of limitations. Avoid taking Emicidin if:

  • your dog bears offspring or feeds babies;
  • the animal is allergic to the main component of the drug;
  • The animal is less than 2 weeks old.


Reviews from breeders and veterinarians

Roman, Samara

“My Rottweiler started getting very sick (from various simple diseases). I immediately thought that there was nothing wrong with this, but then I began to worry. I went to the veterinary clinic, the doctor prescribed a course of Emycin therapy. The dog's condition began to improve quite quickly, and after the full course, his activity and cheerfulness returned. Six months passed, the dog was not sick even once. I recommend the drug."

Ksenia, Moscow

“Our Kiryusha recently turned 12 years old, which is quite a lot for a dog. We began to notice that he became less active, and his health began to fail. On the recommendation of a veterinarian friend, we bought Emicidin ampoules. Completed a prophylactic course - 15 days. The animal's condition improved, he began to get tired less, wanted to run outside more, and even his fur began to look better. The drug is definitely good!”

Elena, Khabarovsk

“This medicine did not suit my Pekingese. There were no side effects, but taking Emicidin did not give any positive results. The dog is no longer young, I wanted to improve his health and condition in general, but after completing a full preventive course, I did not see any changes. I do not advise".

Igor, Moscow

“I have prescribed this remedy to many of my clients, and no one has ever complained. The drug copes with its tasks and does not cause any side effects; I don’t even remember any allergic reactions.”

Storage conditions

Since this drug is quite specific and strong, storage conditions must be strictly and carefully observed:

  • The medicine must be stored in a place well isolated from sunlight. The requirement is due to the fact that UV radiation has a detrimental effect on the components of the drug.
  • Since the drug is produced in the form of capsules with a gelatin shell, the packaging also requires protection from moisture. This, of course, should not happen if the packaging is absolutely intact, but otherwise the capsule shell may well soften, as a result of which the drug will become unusable.
  • Storage temperature – from 0° to 25°. In principle, it is possible to freeze the capsule form, although this is not recommended (since condensation forms during defrosting), but overheating the medicine is highly discouraged, since this can also lead to the decomposition of the active ingredients. Freezing the solution is, accordingly, prohibited.

Compound

The solution and capsules contain the same active substance called atylmethylhydroxypyridine succinate. This is a structural analogue of B vitamins, which belongs to the class of 3-hydroxypyridines and is an antioxidant and antihypoxant. As part of Emicidin, it has the following properties: normalizes blood supply to the brain and prevents thrombus formation; restores the functioning of the ventricles and myocardium in conditions of heart failure; helps reduce cholesterol; improves the functioning of neurotransmitters; stimulates the production of dopamine (a hormone that affects mood) in cats’ bodies; increases resistance to the effects of traumatic factors associated with pathologies; protects cell membranes from the negative effects of radicals (free) and oxygen starvation. In veterinary medicine, ethylmethylhydroxypyridine succinate is used for therapeutic and prophylactic purposes.

Precautionary measures

In order for the treatment to be successful and not harm not only the animal but also its owner, the following rules should be followed:

  • do not touch the drug with your hands, it is better to wear gloves, because the main component often causes allergies, not only in animals, but also in people;
  • If the product gets on your skin or eyes, rinse this area of ​​the body thoroughly with water; if complications occur, go to the doctor;
  • Throw away the ampoules of the drug immediately so that no one gets hurt from them.

special instructions

  • antibiotics;
  • anthelmintic drugs;
  • vitamin complexes, etc.

There are no restrictions for taking the antioxidant and antihypoxant by pregnant, lactating females, elderly, emaciated and weakened animals. There have been no cases of individual intolerance to the drug or its individual components; allergic reactions are extremely rare.
