Cats and Dogs

Hyperphosphatemia or high phosphorus levels in the blood is one of the most common conditions during the progression of kidney disease in dogs and cats. Phosphate binders are medications used to reduce the absorption of dietary phosphate. Sevelamer carbonate is a calcium-free, aluminium-free, non-metal phosphate binder for dogs & cats. Phoslure treats hyperphosphatemia in patients with chronic kidney disease without the risk of hypercalcemia or aluminium toxicity. It significantly slows the progression of vascular calcification as compared to calcium-phosphate binders and reduces cardiovascular morbidity and mortality.

Tropind Plus is a combination ophthalmic solution containing Tropicamide 0.8% and Phenylephrine 5%. This formulation is primarily used for both diagnostic and therapeutic purposes in ophthalmology. 🩺 Primary Uses of Tropind Plus 1. Pupillary Dilation (Mydriasis): The combination of Tropicamide and Phenylephrine effectively dilates the pupil, allowing eye care professionals to conduct thorough examinations of the retina, optic nerve, and other internal structures. 2. Cycloplegia: Tropicamide paralyzes the ciliary muscle, preventing accommodation (focusing), which is useful in refractive error assessments. 3. Uveitis Management: In cases of uveitis, Tropind Plus helps alleviate pain and prevents further spasms of the eye muscles. 4. Preoperative Preparation: Before surgeries like cataract extraction or retinal procedures, dilating the pupil is essential for clear visualization of the posterior segment. 5. Retinal Imaging: Facilitates procedures such as fundus photography and optical coherence tomography (OCT) by ensuring adequate pupil dilation. ⚙️ How It Works • Tropicamide is a parasympatholytic agent that inhibits the contraction of the circular muscle and paralyzes the ciliary muscle, leading to pupil dilation and cycloplegia. Phenylephrine is a sympathomimetic drug that causes contraction of the radial muscle of the iris, contributing to pupil dilation. Together, these agents produce rapid and effective dilation of the pupil, facilitating detailed eye examinations and procedures. ⚠️ Side Effects Common side effects may include: • Eye pain or stinging • Blurred vision • Sensitivity to light (photophobia) • Allergic reactions These effects are typically temporary and resolve shortly after the examination. 🧪 Safety and Precautions • Driving and Operating Machinery: Avoid activities that require clear vision, such as driving, immediately after application, as the solution can cause temporary blurred vision. • Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: Consult a healthcare provider before use during pregnancy or while breastfeeding, as safety data may be limited. • Drug Interactions: Be cautious when using Tropind Plus with certain medications, especially monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs) or tricyclic antidepressants, as interactions may occur.

Biotrav-T (Travoprost and Timolol Maleate) Ophthalmic Solution is a prescription eye drop used to manage elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) in individuals with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension. It combines two medications—travoprost (a prostaglandin analog) and timolol maleate (a non-selective beta-blocker)—to reduce IOP through complementary mechanisms. ________________________________________ ✅ Primary Uses • Open-Angle Glaucoma: A common form of glaucoma characterized by gradual loss of vision due to increased IOP. • Ocular Hypertension: Elevated IOP without optic nerve damage, which can lead to glaucoma if untreated. ________________________________________ 💊 Dosage and Administration • Recommended Dosage: Instill one drop into the affected eye(s) once daily, preferably in the evening. • Application Tips: o Wash hands before use. o Avoid touching the dropper tip to any surface, including the eye, to prevent contamination. o If you wear contact lenses, remove them before applying the drops and wait at least 15 minutes before reinserting them. ________________________________________ ⚠️ Precautions and Contraindications • Contraindications: o Hypersensitivity to any component of the formulation. o Active or suspected ocular infections. o History of hypersensitivity to beta-blockers. • Cautions: o Use with caution in patients with cardiovascular or pulmonary diseases, as timolol may exacerbate conditions like asthma, bradycardia, or heart block. o Monitor for potential systemic absorption effects, including hypotension or bradycardia. o Consult a healthcare provider before use if pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding. ________________________________________

Paripher Eye Drop contains Phenylephrine Hydrochloride 10% and is primarily used in ophthalmology for its mydriatic (pupil-dilating) effects. This formulation is typically employed in clinical settings and is available by prescription.** ________________________________________ 🔍 Uses 1. Pupil Dilation (Mydriasis): Paripher is utilized to dilate the pupil during eye examinations and surgical procedures, allowing for a clearer view of the retina and other internal structures. 2. Treatment of Eye Redness and Irritation: As a decongestant, it constricts blood vessels in the eye, reducing redness and irritation caused by allergies or other factors. 3. Management of Uveitis: Phenylephrine's vasoconstrictive properties aid in managing inflammation associated with uveitis by decreasing blood flow to the affected area. 4. Adjunct in Nasal Decongestion: Though primarily an eye drop, Paripher's active ingredient is also utilized in nasal decongestants to relieve symptoms of the common cold. ________________________________________ ⚠️ Usage Instructions • Application: Instill the prescribed number of drops into the lower conjunctival sac of the eye. • Contact Lenses: Remove soft contact lenses before application and wait at least 10–15 minutes before reinsertion. • Avoid Contamination: Do not touch the dropper tip to any surface, including the eye, to prevent contamination. • Multiple Medications: If using other eye medications, wait at least 10 minutes before applying them to avoid dilution. ________________________________________ ⚠️ Safety and Side Effects • Common Side Effects: Temporary eye discomfort, such as stinging or burning sensations. • Serious Side Effects: Although rare, systemic absorption may lead to increased blood pressure, headache, or dizziness. • Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: Consult a healthcare provider before use during pregnancy or breastfeeding.

Loto-M belongs to a group of medications called ‘Antibiotics and Corticosteroids’ used to treat bacterial eye infections or eye discomfort. It is also used in patients who have undergone eye surgeries. It is used to treat eye inflammation caused by allergies, shingles, iritis (inflammation of the coloured part of the eye (iris)), uveitis (inflammation of the middle layer of the eye (uvea)), eye injury, radiation, and chemical burns. A bacterial eye infection occurs when bacteria invade any part of the eyeball or its surrounding tissues, including the cornea (clear front surface of the eye) and the conjunctiva (thin membrane lining the outer eye and inner eyelids). Loto-M is used to prevent or treat only bacterial eye infections. It does not work against infections caused by viruses and fungus.

Blink (Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose) belongs to ophthalmic eye medications used to treat dryness of the eyes. Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose acts as artificial tears. Also, it is used to lubricate artificial eyes and moisten hard contact lenses. A dry eye is a common condition that occurs when tears are unable to provide sufficient moisture. The symptoms include redness, pain, burning sensation, blurred vision, discomfort in the eye, watery eyes, difficulty reading or sitting in front of the computer for a long time, or eyes getting tired faster than usual. Blink (Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose) contains Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (eye lubricant). Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose works by forming a lubricating, transparent, and moistening film on the cornea (surface of the eye). Thereby, it provides a soothing effect and relieves irritation and dryness caused by decreased tear flow.
