Levothyroxine sodium acts, as does endogenous thyroxine, to stimulate metabolism, growth, development and differentiation of tissues. Levothyroxine sodium is absorbed rapidly from the gastrointestinal tract after oral administration. Following absorption, the compound becomes bound to the serum alpha globulin fraction. For purposes of comparison, 0.1 mg of levothyroxine sodium elicits a clinical response approximately equal to that produced by one grain (65 mg) of desiccated thyroid. Soloxine is available in uniquely shaped, color coded tablets in eight different strengths to allow easy and convenient dosage adjustment.

Hypothyroidism is the generalized metabolic disease resulting from deficiency of the thyroid hormones levothyroxine (T4) and liothyronine (T3). Canine hypothyroidism is usually primary, i.e. due to atrophy of the thyroid gland. In the majority of cases the atrophy is associated with lymphocytic thyroiditis and in the remainder it is non-inflammatory and as of yet unknown etiology. Less than 10 percent of cases of hypothyroidism are secondary, i.e. due to deficiency of thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH). TSH deficiency may occur as a component of congenital hypopituitarism or as an acquired disorder in adult dogs, in which case it may be due to the growth of a pituitary tumor.

Soloxine provides thyroid replacement therapy in all conditions of inadequate production of thyroid hormones.
Soloxine (Levothyroxine Sodium Tablets) will provide levothyroxine (T4) as a substrate for the physiologic deiodination to liothyronine (T3). Administration of levothyroxine sodium alone will result in complete physiologic thyroid replacement.

The initial recommended dose is 0.1 mg/10 lb. (4.5 kg) body weight twice daily. Dosage is then adjusted by monitoring the thyroid blood levels of the dog every four weeks until an adequate maintenance dose is established. The usual maintenance dose is 0.1 mg/10 lb. (4.5 kg) once daily.

Precautions: Administer with caution to animals with clinically significant heart disease, hypertension, or other complications for which sharply increased metabolic rate might prove hazardous.

Keep Dogs Happy with Frontline Plus

When fleas hatch and your dog is plagued by constant itching, she is likely to cause further discomfort by biting patches of skin raw. This is especially true for dogs which have flea-bite allergies, as a single bite can cause allergic dogs to break out in a rash all over. Frontline Plus is an effective solution for eliminating fleas, and is quick and easy to apply. We supply Frontline Plus in retail packages as well as bulk quantities, and this will reduce the overall expense of your dog’s flea treatments, as well as ensure that you have a sufficient supply for ongoing treatments.

Frontline Plus for Cats

Frontline Plus can also be used on cats – the chemical ingredients for Frontline Plus for dogs and Frontline Plus for cats are exactly the same. The formulation composition of the product is almost exactly the same, although the dose size is smaller due to cats being smaller in size. It is important to read the guidelines on your Frontline products carefully so that you do not exceed prescribed dosage size or treat an animal that is too young to be treated with Frontline – kittens that are younger than eight weeks old should not be treated with Frontline; you can investigate alternative treatments for pets which are outside of the acceptable age bracket.

Frontline Plus Kills Fleas and Ticks as well as Eggs

While shampooing your dog or cat may eradicate some fleas it is unlikely to kill all of them, as most will burrow down in your pet’s fur and escape detection. Live fleas are not the only problem, as minute flea eggs can still hatch once the live fleas have been destroyed. Frontline Plus is effective as it kills fleas, ticks and chewing lice at all stages of the life cycle, so that you can be certain of a flea-free pet once the treatment has been allowed to work.

Applying Frontline Plus

Frontline Plus is extremely easy to apply and is far simpler than having to hide tablets in food or inject your dog with any kind of treatment. The treatment is simply applied directly to the skin, on the back of the neck, between the shoulder blades where it can be absorbed easily. Application should be 48 - 72 hours before or after bathing as bathing washes away the natural oils in the skin that are essential in the absorption process of the Frontline Plus into the fatty layer just below the skin.

We Offer Various Products in Addition to Frontline Plus

In addition to Frontline Plus and other flea and tick treatments, we supply a variety of pet products, including treatments for conditions such as arthritis and dog shampoo which is gentle on the skin and is suitable to use on all breeds of dog. Some flea products are not recommended for use in certain situations. Some products can be toxic to cats. These products can be used on dogs in the same household but great care and precaution is recommended. You can find answers to many questions via our FAQ section as well as useful information on treating your pets for fleas safely. You can also contact us with any queries that you may have.
