Loxicom is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) used to alleviate pain and inflammation in dogs and cats, especially in cases of osteoarthritis. It’s available in both injectable and oral liquid forms for easy administration.
Meloxicam 0.5mg or 1.5mg
Excipient: Sodium benzoate 1.5 mg
• Reduces pain and inflammation in dogs and cats.
• Available in multiple forms for versatile use.
• Ensures comfort and mobility for pets.
• Dosage for Cats:
✓ Post-operative pain and inflammation following surgical procedures:
After initial treatment with Loxicom 5 mg/ml Solution for Injection for Dogs and Cats continue treatment 24 hours later with Loxicom 0.5 mg/ml Oral Suspension for Cats at a dosage of 0.05 mg meloxicam/kg body weight. The oral follow-up dose may be administered once daily (at 24-hour intervals) for up to four days.
✓ Acute musculo-skeletal disorders: Initial treatment is a single oral dose of 0.2 mg meloxicam/kg body weight on the first day. Treatment is to be continued once daily by oral administration (at 24-hour intervals) at a dose of 0.05 mg meloxicam/kg body weight for as long as acute pain and inflammation persist.
✓ Chronic musculo-skeletal disorders: Initial treatment is a single dose of 0.1 mg meloxicam/kg bodyweight on the first day. Treatment is to be continued once daily by oral administration (at 24 hour intervals) at a maintenance dose of 0.05 mg meloxicam/kg bodyweight.
• Dosage for Dogs:
✓ Initial treatment is a single dose of 0.2 mg meloxicam/kg bodyweight (i.e. 1.33 ml/10 kg bodyweight) on the first day. Treatment is to be continued once daily by oral administration (at 24 hour intervals) at a maintenance dose of 0.1 mg meloxicam/kg bodyweight (i.e. 0.667 ml/10 kg bodyweight).
✓ For longer term treatment, once clinical response has been observed (after ≥ 4 days), the dose can be adjusted to the lowest effective individual dose reflecting that the degree of pain and inflammation associated with chronic musculo-skeletal disorders may vary over time.
Particular care should be taken with regard to the accuracy of dosing.
✓ The suspension can be given using either of the two measuring syringes provided in the package (depending on weight of dog). The syringes fit onto the bottle and have a kg-bodyweight scale which corresponds to the maintenance dose (i.e. 0.1 mg meloxicam/kg bodyweight). Thus for the first day, twice the maintenance volume will be required. Alternatively therapy may be initiated with Loxicom 5 mg/ml solution for injection.
✓ A clinical response is normally seen within 3-4 days. Treatment should be discontinued after 10 days at the latest if no clinical improvement is apparent.
✓ Use the oral syringe to measure the exact dose.
✓ Administer as prescribed by your veterinarian.
✓ Administer with or after food to reduce gastrointestinal upset.
X Not suitable for pets with known allergies to NSAIDs.
