Recommended dosage of Sulphocamphocaine for cats
The drug can be used by any parenteral route. The drug can be administered to cats either subcutaneously in the withers area or intramuscularly. In the latter case, the medication should be injected in the upper third of the posterior femoral muscle group.
The recommended dosage of Sulphocamphocaine for cats is 0.1 ml of a 10% solution for each kilogram of the pet’s weight once or twice a day. If pulmonary edema is detected, this dose does not change, but three-time administration of the drug throughout the day becomes quite appropriate.
"Sulfokamphocaine" is well absorbed. In addition, with parenteral methods of administration, injection lipogranulomas do not form on the skin of the animal. Only intravenous administration should be carried out with extreme caution. Using this method, the drug should be administered as a stream or drip. This should be done very slowly, preferably under the supervision of a qualified veterinarian who can monitor the cat's blood pressure levels.
To prepare the solution, you can use isotonic physiological fluid. If necessary, injections can be given within a month. Only in this case it is very important to adhere to the rules described in the instructions for Sulfocamphocaine.
Overdose
If all the rules for the use of Sulfocamphocaine are followed in cats, no negative reactions from the body are usually observed. In cases where the recommended dosage is significantly exceeded, approximately 3-5 times, all sorts of negative symptoms may occur. Most often, an overdose manifests itself in the form of:
- severe tachycardia;
- muscle tremors;
- diarrhea;
- twitching of limbs;
- abnormal type of breathing.
If such signs occur, you should immediately contact your veterinarian. Therapy in this case is usually symptomatic. Typically, a specialist prescribes anticonvulsants and medications aimed at suppressing the central nervous system.
Drug interactions
“Sulphocamphocaine” can be prescribed to cats simultaneously with cardiac glycosides, diuretics, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, painkillers, steroid hormones, muscle relaxants, and drugs that suppress the activity of the central nervous system.
An increase in the effect of Sulfocamphocaine is observed when it is combined with analgesics and diuretics. The same effect is achieved when combined with steroid hormones and cardiac glycosides.
With the parallel use of Sulfocamphocaine injections and drugs that depress the central nervous system, a weakened effect of the latter is noted. When injections are combined with muscle relaxants, the neuromuscular blockade is prolonged.
Addiction treatment
A course of treatment for addiction to Sulfocamphocaine will help you recover from use, get rid of withdrawal symptoms and side effects from use. A narcologist can provide you with professional help at home and conduct detoxification to cleanse your body of toxins.
Inpatient rehabilitation at Dr. Vasilenko Medical Center will help you overcome obsessive thoughts about drug use and return to a healthy lifestyle. To maintain the results of the rehabilitation course, you can attend individual sessions with a psychologist and other specialists from the medical center.
