Pimobendan is one of the most important medications used in veterinary cardiology, specifically for managing congestive heart failure (CHF) in dogs caused by myxomatous mitral valve disease (MMVD) or dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). Its mechanism of action—as a calcium sensitizer and a selective inhibitor of phosphodiesterase 3—provides both positive inotropic (stronger contraction) and vasodilator (vessel widening) effects, easing the heart's burden.
The challenge with this life-saving drug, however, is achieving the exact dose required for your dog's specific body weight. That’s why PetScript Pharmacy offers the Pimobendan Quadrisect Tablet the ultimate solution for micro-dose adjustments.
A Quadrisect tablet is a specialized compounded tablet formulated with four distinct score lines, allowing it to be accurately divided into four equal parts.
This level of precision is crucial because a dog's Pimobendan dose is calculated based on its weight, and even minor weight fluctuations require dosage adjustments. Standard tablets often can't be split precisely into quarters, leading to inaccurate dosing.
PetScript Pharmacy offers multiple forms of Pimobendan to ensure complete dosing flexibility:
| Product Name | Divisions | Dose Flexibility | Best For |
| Pimobendan Quadrisect | Four equal parts | Highest precision 1/4 dose increments) | Very small dogs or fine-tuning the dose. |
| Pimobendan Split | Two or Three parts (as seen previously) | High precision 1/2 or 1/3 dose increments) | Standard dose adjustments. |
| Pimobendan Capsule | None | Fixed dosage | When no splitting or liquid is required. |
By compounding Pimobendan into 5mg and 10mg Quadrisect tablets, PetScript ensures that veterinarians can prescribe extremely fine dose increments:
5mg Quadrisect: Allows for increments of 1.25mg (5mg div 4 = 1.25mg).
10mg Quadrisect: Allows for increments of 2.5mg 10mg div 4 = 2.5mg).
This guarantees that whether your dog needs 3.75mg or 8.75mg their specific cardiac needs are met with therapeutic accuracy. When managing a critical condition like heart failure, this dose reliability is paramount to maintaining quality of life.
The Quadrisect Tablet, combined with our other highly-regarded compounded forms (like the Beef-Flavored Bisect Tablet and Oral Suspension), ensures that your dog receives their life-extending medication accurately and easily, removing stress for both the pet and the owner.
