Flunixin Meglumine Paste is used to relieve pain, reduce inflammation, and control fever in horses. It is commonly prescribed for conditions like colic, endotoxic shock, uveitis, corneal ulcers, and other gastrointestinal or ocular disorders. It is also used post-surgery to aid recovery.
Flunixin Meglumine inhibits prostaglandin synthesis, which plays a key role in inflammation and pain pathways. By blocking these processes, it alleviates pain, reduces swelling, and lowers fever effectively.
Flunixin is typically prescribed for short-term use due to the potential risk of gastrointestinal or renal side effects. Long-term use should only occur under strict veterinary supervision to monitor for complications.
Flunixin Meglumine can be used in pregnant mares when deemed necessary by a veterinarian. However, it should be administered with caution and under veterinary guidance to minimize any potential risks.
Store the paste at or below 77°F in a dry place away from direct sunlight. Ensure the cap is tightly sealed after use to maintain its effectiveness. Do not freeze the product.
Yes, Flunixin can interact with other NSAIDs, corticosteroids, or medications affecting the kidneys. Always inform your veterinarian about any other treatments your horse is receiving before starting Flunixin.
If your horse misses a dose, administer it as soon as you remember. However, if it’s close to the next scheduled dose, skip the missed dose to avoid overdosing. Do not double up doses without veterinary advice.
Flunixin Meglumine typically begins to take effect within 2 hours of oral administration, providing rapid relief from pain, inflammation, and fever.
There are generally no specific dietary restrictions. However, avoid administering Flunixin to horses with pre-existing gastrointestinal conditions or ulcers unless directed by a veterinarian.
Signs of overdose include gastrointestinal distress, kidney issues, or central nervous system symptoms such as lethargy or seizures. If you suspect an overdose, contact your veterinarian immediately for emergency assistance.
