Show notes:
Toxicity:
a. Don’t ever give cats hydrogen peroxide!!!! Hemorrhagic gastroenteritis/death. NO SAFE AT HOME REMEDY in cats.
b. Use dexdomitor 7mcg/kg IM to cause 81% of cats to puke. Hydromorphone SQ can also work 75% of the time. Xylazine less likely.
c. Cholestyramine is a great drug to use when trying to detox a patient who ingested a drug or poison that undergoes enterohepatic recirculation. It’s a bile acid sequestrant.
d. ILE – Intravenous Lipid Emulsion – helps draw out fat soluble toxicants. (most commonly made of soy bean oil) – great for marijuana toxicosis.
Hyperlipidemia:
a. Fenofibrate (micronized form) 4-10mg/kg BID – should resolve 80-100% of cases by 1 month. Will require lifelong therapy.
b. Low fat diet will treat only 25% of cases.
Dermatology update:
a. Chlorpactin – study showed powdered chlorine 0.4% solution kills MRSP topically in just 10 secs.
Chronic UTI: Nitrofurantoin – given nightly for 4 months can help with deep seeded chronic infections.
Feline arthritis:
a. Dr. Kristen Shaw gave some great resources for both vets and owners to help to identify cats affected by arthritis during her lecture:
