What is a Generic Drug?

A generic drug is a copy of the brand-name drug with the same dosage, safety, strength, quality, consumption method, performance, and intended use. Before generics become available on the market, the generic company must prove it has the same active ingredients as the brand-name drug and works in the same way and in the same amount of time in the body.

The only differences between generics and their brand-name counterparts is that generics are less expensive and may look slightly different (eg. different shape or color), as trademarks laws prevent a generic from looking exactly like the brand-name drug.

Generics are less expensive because generic manufacturers don't have to invest large sums of money to develop a drug. When the brand-name patent expires, generic companies can manufacture a copy of the brand-name and sell it at a substantial discount.

Description

Felimazole is a prescription hyperthyroidism medication for cats that works to inhibit the synthesis of thyroid hormone so less T3 and T4 hormone are secreted by the thyroid gland. Treatment with the medication eliminates the risk of poor cardiovascular health for cats resulting from untreated hyperthyroidism plus relief of increased thirst, frequent urination, or any of the other cat hyperthyroidism symptoms seen. Within 3 weeks to 1 month of your pet starting on Felimazole for cats you can expect to see improvements, and this medication is ideal for cat hyperthyroidism treatment.

You can buy Felimazole with a prescription, and your best price on it will be when you order pet medication online from Canada Drugs Direct.

Directions

Standard starting dosage for Felimazole is 2.5mg given orally every 12 hours. After 3 weeks of treatment and based on your vet's observations your pet's dose may be titrated based on T4 hormone concentrations.
