Pohľad veterinárneho lekára na generické lieky na domáce zvieratá

Vďaka rozširujúcemu sa svetu drahých drog a farmaceutík v ľudskej aj veterinárnej medicíne je to vždy vítaná úľava, keď patent vypršal, pretože vychádzajú lacnejšie, ale chemicky identické generické lieky. V ľudskom lekárstve sa normy na výrobu generického lieku rovnajú štandardom značky mena, a preto je pri vyplňovaní predpisov generický liek zvyčajne vyplnený, ak je k dispozícii.
Zatiaľ čo vo veterinárnej medicíne nemusia byť normy rovnaké, zistil som, že mnoho generických liekov dostupných vo veterinárnej medicíne vykonáva rovnako ako aj značky. Napríklad som zistil, že Iverhart sa rovná srdcu v spoľahlivosti a výkone pri prevencii srdcových červov. Karprofén je ďalším príkladom nesteroidného anti zápalového lieku, ktorý podľa mojej skúsenosti tiež funguje rovnako ako úľavu od bolesti ako jeho predchodca značky Rimadyl. Existuje mnoho ďalších príkladov generických liekov vykonávajúcich rovnako ako drogy značky vo veterinárnej medicíne. Takže, ak sú k dispozícii, dôrazne odporúčam ich použitie ako oveľa ekonomickejšiu alternatívu.

Would You break A automobile window to save A Dog?

I know the answer to this question is yes for most of us.

If a dog was truly in danger, most dog lovers would consider breaking a window to rescue the dog.

However, most of the time, a dog left in the automobile is not in serious danger.

A story went around recently where a man in Georgia broke a woman’s automobile window in order to “rescue” a small dog. Here’s a link to one version of the story.

The news stations loved pointing out that the man was a veteran and that (so the story goes) he used a piece of his wife’s wheelchair to break the window.

And even though this man faced charges, he was portrayed as a hero. (Charges were later dropped, but the dog’s owner was cited for leaving her dog in a hot car.)

And then, as usual, all the comments on this story were about how “awful” the dog’s owner was for leaving her dog in the car, even though she claimed she was gone just 5 minutes.

The dog’s owner is not interviewed in these stories. We do not get to hear her side. perhaps she chose not to comment, but there is no indication of that in the stories. Instead, she is non-existent. Not pictured. No real mention.

Meanwhile, USA Today reported that PETA is giving the veteran a “Compassionate action Award.”

Since PETA’s involved, the whole situation is even more sketchy to me.

I’m reminded of this picture I saw floating around on Facebook this week:

It summarizes how I feel about dogs in cars.

I leave my dog Ace alone in the automobile too. sometimes for 10 or 15 minutes.

I left him in the automobile last weekend for about 10 minutes while it was 96 degrees outside in the valley. I did not crack the windows at all because it was cooler in the automobile than outside.

Our automobile is new and it seems to maintain the temperature fairly well. We parked in the shade. The AC had been blasting for hours.

[quote_right]I would have been pissed off had anyone gone near our automobile to even think about ‘rescuing’ our dog.[/quote_right]My spouse and I went into subway together to order food. We could’ve taken turns so someone was always with Ace, but we knew this was not necessary.

While standing in line, I could look out the window and see my dog. I knew he would be just fine for that amount of time and he was.

We took our sandwiches to go so we could sit outside and eat them with our dog.

I would have been pissed off had anyone gone near our automobile to even think about “rescuing” our dog.

Of course, there are dogs that truly do need rescuing when left alone in hot cars. but those examples are rare.

Even if breaking a automobile window is really a legitimate option, there are still other risks to consider.

Reasons not to break a window to save a dog

[delete_list]

The glass or force could injure the dog or the person breaking the window.

The dog could get loose and get hit by a automobile or lost.

The dog could bite the “rescuer” or someone else.

[/delete_list]

Plus, it’s not all that easy for most people to break a automobile window. I don’t even know how I’d go about doing so.

What to do instead of breaking a window:

[check_list]

Call local law enforcement.

Contact nearby business managers/employees to see if they can track down the dog’s owner.

Pour water to the dog if possible.

Wait around for 10-15 minutes for the owner, without acting like a psycho when she returns! „

[/check_list]

Just because a dog is panting and “distressed” doesn’t mean it truly needs “rescuing.” I’d be more concerned if the dog was breathing heavily but lying on his side & having trouble moving.

A lot of dogs pant all the time just because they’re anxious about life in general, poorly socialized or full of pent-up energy. They don’t need rescuing. They just need exercise.

Consider breaking the window as a last resort, but only after considering the above risks/consequences.

Did you hear about the story with the veteran breaking a automobile window? What did you think about that story?

Have you ever had to save a dog from a hot car?

What is Your canine really telling You?

Baxter and I headed out for our morning walk. It was a beautiful morning. I wasn’t pressed for time, so I chose to take a longer route than usual—a route that we walk only a handful of times a year.

We trotted along, Baxter sniffing all of the smells and spreading his scent around.

Then partway through he dug in his heels. “Nie. I’m not going any further.”

My first assumption is I have a very lazy canine and going on a longer walk had certainly worn him out. plus we’d met some people and walked past a few farms where we’ve met dogs before. He wanted to socialize. He was stubborn.

He was annoying.

We had a discussion. “You don’t need to sniff all the smells, meet all the people and see all the puppies. We are walking. now let’s go.” and I set off dragging my dog. It was not graceful.

Lindsay posted last month about what to do when your canine refuses to walk. changing the pace was something I tried, but I could barely get Bax to take a step, so speeding up wasn’t happening.

I didn’t relish changing the route because we had two choices: forward or back. Bax and I were nearly halfway.

Even if we’d turned around, we had much more than 3 kilometres to walk to get home. If my canine was exhausted already, he’d still be exhausted going the other way.

We trudged along, Bax strung out behind me dragging as much as possible. Me grumbling and stomping along.

Eventually I found a mailbox that I know is one of his preferred spots to sniff and leave his scent. So we took a break.

As we stood there, I started to think. Baxter wasn’t tired. He was scared—or at least incredibly unenthused about what was ahead on the route.

Just up the road lived a not very good dog. If he’s outside, he’s rarely tied up, and he’s come running out at us a few times.

He’s not vicious, but he is aggressive. My husband and I have both ended up physically pushing this canine away from Baxter, all the while yelling at the house for someone to come and get their dog.

The experiences haven’t been bad enough to dissuade me from walking this route, but certainly they were for Baxter.

I felt very bad for not hearing what my canine had been telling me. We had another discussion.

“We’ll cross to the other side of the road. You stay on the far side of me. We’ll just walk and won’t stop. I’ll keep you safe.”

There was still dragging, but I kept Baxter closer to me, rather than stretched out behind. I kept a stable pace. I talked quietly and encouragingly to Baxter rather than giving him the silent treatment or being harsh—as I had been earlier.

The canine was outside, and he started barking. Fortunately, he only came partway down the driveway rather than out onto the road, so Baxter and I just kept walking until we were safely passed.

Then we took another break for a tension relieving sniff.

The rest of the walk went smoothly. No much more dragging. and I learned an essential lesson to not assume I know what is driving my dog’s behavior.

Take a minute and think about the situation, including alternate explanations for what he’s feeling.

And to be clear, we will no longer be walking this route.

Have you ever misunderstood what your canine is telling you?

Choroba pečene v rodinných domácich miláčikoch

AddsTis, zdieľanie ButtonsShare na FacebookfacebookShare na TwittertwittertwitterShare to PinterestPinterestPirestShare pre Moreaddthismore3

Aj keď pečeň má neuveriteľné regeneratívne kapacity, u psov a mačiek existuje veľa možných príčin ochorenia pečene. Určite toxické chemické vystavenie životnému prostrediu, dodávky potravín a dokonca aj z chemikálií aplikovaných ako pesticídy pre rodinné domáce zvieratá môžu prispievať faktormi. Bakteriálne príčiny ochorenia pečene, ako je leptospiróza, ako aj vírusové príčiny, boli tiež obviňované.

Iné choroby pankreasu, tráviaceho traktu a ústnej dutiny môžu tiež spôsobiť sekundárny zápal pečene. Ak sa tieto ďalšie choroby liečia predovšetkým, zápal pečene normálne ustúpi. U mladých zvierat sú bežné genetické príčiny ochorenia pečene vrátane obehových problémov známych ako portosystemové skraty. U starších domácich miláčikov a starších domácich miláčikov sa môžu vyskytnúť primárne zápalové choroby pečene, ako aj nádory pečene. Je rozhodujúce, že akýkoľvek chronicky chorý PET má kompletné lekárske spracovanie, vrátane krvných profilov CBC/Chemistry, a ak je to potrebné, krvný test žlčových kyselín, ako aj ultrazvukový a ultrazvukový biopsia vedená, ak je to potrebné na primeranú diagnostiku príčiny ochorenia pečene v petránoch. .
