TABLETS FOR AGED DOGS
Each film-coated tablet contains 50 mg propentofylline.
MODE OF ACTION
Vivitonin acts primarily by producing a marked improvement in the
micro-circulation and therefore
by increasing the oxygen supply in the peripheral and cerebral areas.
It may start to take effect
after only a few days, depending on the clinical signs. The clinical
signs can be expected to return
once treatment has been discontinued.
INDICATIONS
Conditions associated with the ageing process in dogs, such as
lethargy, tiredness, apathy, stiff
gait, difficulty in standing up and walking, lack of appetite,
wasting, alopecia, dull coat, when no
specific cause of these conditions can be found. Vivitonin may help in
slowing the development of
hearing and sight defects associated with ageing and, also slow the
development of cataracts in
aged animals.
CONTRAINDICATIONS
Contraindicated in pregnant or lactating bitches, as the compound has
not yet been evaluated for
these animals.
