Vetemex 10 mg/ml solution for injection for dogs and cats

For subcutaneous or intravenous use in dogs and cats.

The veterinary medicinal product solution for injection should be injected subcutaneously or
intravenously, once daily, at a dose of 1 mg of maropitant / kg bodyweight (1 ml/10 kg bodyweight)
                                                     4
for up to 5 consecutive days. Intravenous administration of the veterinary medicinal product should be
given as a single bolus without mixing the product with any other fluids.

To prevent vomiting, the veterinary medicinal product solution for injection should be administered
more than 1 hour in advance. The duration of effect is approximately 24 h and therefore treatment can
be given the night before administration of an agent that may cause emesis e.g. chemotherapy.

As the pharmacokinetic variation is large and maropitant accumulates in the body after once daily
repeated administration, lower doses than recommended might be sufficient in some individuals and
when repeating the dose.

For administration by subcutaneous injection, see also “Special precautions for safe use in the target
species:” (section 3.5).
