Maropitant blocks the neurokinin-1 receptor, which is the pathway the vomiting reflex runs through — it works centrally rather than settling the stomach, which is why it holds up against causes that antacids don't touch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eIt's the same active ingredient as Cerenia, in a generic tablet from Dechra.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eTwo situations account for most of what it's prescribed for: dogs who vomit in the car, and dogs vomiting from an acute illness or as a side effect of another treatment. In both cases, the goal is prevention — maropitant works considerably better given before vomiting starts than after.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eActive ingredient: maropitant citrate\u003cbr\u003eSpecies: dogs\u003cbr\u003eForm: tablet\u003cbr\u003ePrescription required\u003cbr\u003eAvailable in four tablet strengths — choose the one matching your veterinarian's prescription and your dog's weight\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow to Use\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eGive exactly as prescribed. Dosing differs depending on the purpose: the dose and timing for motion sickness are not the same as for acute vomiting, and the number of consecutive days the drug should be given also differs. Follow the prescription rather than a general rule.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eFor motion sickness, the tablet is given in advance of travel, not when the dog starts to feel sick. Ask your veterinarian how far ahead to dose. Giving it with a small amount of food may reduce the chance of the tablet itself causing vomiting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eIf your dog vomits the tablet back up shortly after dosing, call your veterinarian before repeating it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eImportant Safety Information\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eFederal law restricts this drug to use by or on the order of a licensed veterinarian.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eUse with caution in dogs with liver disease, since maropitant is metabolized by the liver.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eTell your veterinarian about all other medications your dog is receiving, and about any heart condition or history of seizures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eVomiting is a symptom, not a diagnosis. Suppressing it without knowing the cause can mask a serious problem — a foreign body obstruction, pancreatitis, kidney failure, or a toxin. Contact your veterinarian if vomiting continues despite treatment, or if your dog is also lethargic, painful, has a distended abdomen, is retching without producing anything, has blood in the vomit, or has stopped drinking. Repeated unproductive retching in a deep-chested dog is a bloat emergency and needs a veterinarian immediately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eSee the full package insert for complete prescribing information.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dechra","offers":[{"title":"16 mg \/ 30 tablets","offer_id":52564037927143,"sku":null,"price":151.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"16 mg \/ 60 tablets","offer_id":52564037959911,"sku":null,"price":303.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"16 mg \/ 90 tablets","offer_id":52564037992679,"sku":null,"price":454.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"16 mg \/ 120 tablets","offer_id":52564038025447,"sku":null,"price":606.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"16 mg \/ 180 tablets","offer_id":52564038058215,"sku":null,"price":757.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"24 mg \/ 30 tablets","offer_id":52564038090983,"sku":null,"price":160.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"24 mg \/ 60 tablets","offer_id":52564038123751,"sku":null,"price":321.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"24 mg \/ 90 tablets","offer_id":52564038156519,"sku":null,"price":481.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"24 mg \/ 120 tablets","offer_id":52564038189287,"sku":null,"price":642.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"24 mg \/ 180 tablets","offer_id":52564038222055,"sku":null,"price":802.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"60 mg \/ 30 tablets","offer_id":52564038254823,"sku":null,"price":289.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"60 mg \/ 60 tablets","offer_id":52564038287591,"sku":null,"price":579.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"60 mg \/ 90 tablets","offer_id":52564038320359,"sku":null,"price":868.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"60 mg \/ 120 tablets","offer_id":52564038353127,"sku":null,"price":1158.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"60 mg \/ 180 tablets","offer_id":52564038385895,"sku":null,"price":1447.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"160 mg \/ 30 tablets","offer_id":52564038418663,"sku":null,"price":339.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"160 mg \/ 60 tablets","offer_id":52564038451431,"sku":null,"price":678.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"160 mg \/ 90 tablets","offer_id":52564038484199,"sku":null,"price":1017.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"160 mg \/ 120 tablets","offer_id":52564038516967,"sku":null,"price":1356.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"160 mg \/ 180 tablets","offer_id":52564038549735,"sku":null,"price":1695.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0626\/7053\/6935\/files\/em16.jpg?v=1788473099","url":"https:\/\/petrx.com\/products\/emeprev-maropitant-citrate-tablets-for-dogs","provider":"PETRX.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
