Imunofan is the newest peptide drug developed by Russian doctors. It has a regulatory effect on the immune system, affecting oxidative-antioxidant processes. This immunomodulatory drug can be used to treat not only humans, but also animals, including dogs.
"Imunofan": composition and indications for use
Not only humans, but also animals suffer from constantly emerging new varieties of infectious viral diseases. Etiotropic antiviral drugs are no longer able to counteract these diseases, especially when severe complications caused by the disease begin to develop in immunocompromised animals. In this case, veterinarians recommend the use of "Imunofan" - a new effective means of pathogenetic and immunocorrective therapy, which has a positive effect on the detoxification function and has a hepatoprotective effect.
Taking the drug reduces the synthesis of inflammatory mediators and increases the circulation period of specific antibodies that help stop the inflammatory process. It enhances immunity, and also activates the early anti-tumor defense system. By reducing the antigenic load, "Imunofan" eliminates post-vaccination complications.
One dose of this drug for dogs is a 1 ml ampoule containing synthetic hexapeptide and excipients. Dogs are prescribed it if necessary to correct the immunodeficiency state, to increase the body's defenses during vaccination. The veterinarian can also prescribe it for intrauterine bacterial viral infections. In addition, "Imunofan" is recommended for use in situations where the animal may be under stress. For example, during transport or when changing feed, before weighing.
How to use "Imunofan" for dogs
For dogs, this drug is prescribed for the treatment of viral and bacterial infectious diseases, as well as for their prevention. The drug is injected subcutaneously or intramuscularly, and can also be instilled into the conjunctiva of the eyes using a conventional pipette. If it is used as a prophylaxis, it should be administered once, but only when there is an epidemic danger, the procedure should be repeated every 10 days. If the animal is already sick, a course of treatment should be carried out by injecting Imunofan every other day within a week, during which the dog will receive 4 doses of the drug. In any case, it is recommended to consult a veterinarian before using the drug.
In the indicated doses, the drug is completely harmless, it does not have a toxic effect on the animal's body, and its intake does not need to be accompanied by the use of antidotes. But it is not recommended to use "Imunofan" at the same time as taking other immunostimulating drugs.
