Bluecan Injection is a brand of Methylene Blue Injection, primarily used in medical settings for its diagnostic and therapeutic properties. ________________________________________ 🩺 Uses of Bluecan Injection 1. Treatment of Methemoglobinemia: Methylene Blue is the first-line treatment for methemoglobinemia, a condition where methemoglobin levels are elevated, impairing oxygen delivery to tissues. It acts as a reducing agent, converting methemoglobin back to hemoglobin, thereby restoring normal oxygen transport. 2. Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs): It is sometimes used as a urinary antiseptic to treat UTIs, although its use for this purpose has become less common with the advent of more effective antibiotics. 3. Surgical Dye: In surgical procedures, Methylene Blue is used as a dye to delineate tissues, identify sentinel lymph nodes, or assess organ perfusion. 4. Diagnostic Tool: It is used in diagnostic procedures to assess the function of certain organs, such as the kidneys, and to evaluate the patency of ducts. ________________________________________ ⚠️ Side Effects While generally well-tolerated, potential side effects of Methylene Blue Injection include: • Injection site reactions (pain, redness, swelling) • Headache • Dizziness • Nausea or vomiting • Skin discoloration (temporary blue or greenish tint) • In rare cases, serotonin syndrome, especially if used with serotonergic drugs ________________________________________ 💊 Mechanism of Action Methylene Blue acts by accepting electrons and donating them to reduce methemoglobin back to hemoglobin. This process restores the oxygen-carrying capacity of the blood. It also inhibits certain enzymes and has antimicrobial properties, which contribute to its use in treating infections. ________________________________________ ⚠️ Precautions • Drug Interactions: Avoid concurrent use with serotonergic drugs (e.g., SSRIs, SNRIs, MAO inhibitors) to prevent serotonin syndrome. • Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: Consult a healthcare provider before use during pregnancy or breastfeeding. • G6PD Deficiency: Use with caution in individuals with glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency, as it may cause hemolysis. • Renal Impairment: Dosage adjustments may be necessary in patients with kidney dysfunction

Carodyl contains the most widely used non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug – Carprofen. Carprofen works by inhibiting an enzyme called cyclooxygenase (COX). This results in lower production of a substance called prostaglandins. By reducing prostaglandin levels, carprofen helps to control pain. Carprofen is a preferential COX 2 inhibitor, with higher ratio of COX 2 to COX 1 inhibition. This is associated with good pain control (analgesic property) with minimal risk of side effects associated with COX 1 inhibition (minimal risk of bleeding). Carodyl Is indicated for the relief of pain and inflammation associated with osteoarthritis and for the control of post-operative pain associated with soft tissue and orthopedic surgeries in 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.
