Cerenia® is an antiemetic medication formulated specifically for dogs to prevent and treat vomiting, including that associated with motion sickness. It provides effective relief from nausea and helps improve the quality of life for dogs prone to vomiting. This medication is widely trusted by veterinarians for its efficacy in managing acute vomiting in dogs.

Active Ingredients

The active ingredient in Cerenia® is Maropitant citrate, a neurokinin (NK1) receptor antagonist that works by blocking the action of substance P, a neuropeptide involved in the vomiting reflex. Maropitant citrate is known for its fast-acting and long-lasting effects, making it a reliable choice for controlling vomiting in dogs.

• 16mg - 4 tablets

• 60mg - 4 tablets
• 160mg - 4 tablets

These varying strengths ensure that you can choose the appropriate dosage based on your dog's weight and specific treatment plan.

Typical Dose

The typical dose of Cerenia® is 2 mg of Maropitant per kg of body weight, administered once daily for up to 5 consecutive days. It is essential to follow the precise dosing instructions provided by your veterinarian, as the dose may vary depending on your dog's specific condition and response to treatment. Cerenia® tablets should be administered orally and can be given with or without food.

Potential Side-Effects

While Cerenia® is generally well-tolerated, some dogs may experience side-effects. The most common side-effects include lethargy, loss of appetite, and diarrhea. In rare cases, more serious side-effects such as allergic reactions may occur.
