Protecting Pet Hearts: Understanding Compounded Pimobendan Split Tablets

If your beloved dog has been diagnosed with heart disease, you know that precise medication and easy administration are non-negotiable. Pimobendan is a true lifesaver for dogs with congestive heart failure (CHF), but getting the exact dose right can be a challenge especially for smaller breeds.

That’s where PetScript Pharmacy's Compounded Pimobendan Split Tablets come in. We take the stress out of heart health management by delivering a customized solution that prioritizes precision and palatability.

What is Pimobendan and Why is it Used?

Pimobendan is a crucial medication used in the management of heart failure in dogs, most commonly caused by two conditions:

1. Myxomatous Mitral Valve Disease (MMVD): The most common heart disease in dogs, where the valve between the heart's chambers leaks.

2. Dilated Cardiomyopathy (DCM): A condition where the heart muscle is weakened and cannot pump blood effectively.

Pimobendan works in two vital ways:

• Positive Inotropic Effect: It acts as a calcium sensitizer, making the heart muscle contract more forcefully and efficiently.

• Vasodilator Effect: It widens blood vessels, reducing the workload on the heart so it can pump more easily.

In short, it helps your dog's weakened heart pump stronger and makes the circulation system less resistant, significantly improving quality of life and prognosis for many patients.

The Power of the PetScript Split Tablet

Heart medications are all about precision. The dose of Pimobendan is often calculated based on a dog's specific weight, which can result in a dose that doesn't match standard tablet sizes.

Our Split Tablet compounding provides the flexibility veterinarians need:

This unique structure allows veterinarians to prescribe the exact dose needed without requiring you to struggle with imprecise cutting of tiny pills.

The Taste Factor: Beef Flavor for Better Compliance

No matter how effective a medication is, it can't work if your pet won't take it. Pimobendan, like many veterinary drugs, can be difficult to administer.

We compound our Pimobendan Split Tablets with a Beef Flavor that dogs love. By masking the medication's natural taste, we help turn a potential struggle into an accepted treat, ensuring your dog receives their critical heart medication consistently, every time.
