Description

Atopica for Dogs is an oral solution prescribed to dogs who suffer from allergic dermatitis-a skin reaction caused by contact with an allergen. This is very common in canines with allergies, and can cause their skin to become uncomfortably itchy, red and scaly. Atopica targets the root of the problem to help relieve itching, so your companion no longer feels the need to incessantly scratch, rub or lick. Atopica can help provide your dog the relief she needs.

Medical Use

To control atopic dermatitis and its symptoms.

Animals Treated

Dogs (at least 6 months of age and weighing at least 4 pounds)

Key Benefits

  • Significantly reduces itching and skin lesions
  • Proven effective in most dogs
  • Allows you to control your pet's problem without steroids
  • Safe to use over long periods without the serious side effects usually associated with steroids
  • Treats allergic skin disease
  • Provides relief from itching

How It Works

Atopica targets the immune cells involved in the allergic reaction. You usually only administer one dose a day to control symptoms, but many dogs can be effectively controlled with every-other-day or twice-weekly dosing.

Ingredients

Active Ingredient

Cyclosporine

Directions

View Atopica Drug Facts Sheet.

The initial dose of Atopica for Dogs is 5 mg/kg/day (3.3-6.7 mg/kg/day) as a single daily dose for 30 days. Following this initial daily treatment period, the dose of Atopica for Dogs may be tapered by decreasing the frequency of dosing to every other day or twice weekly, until a minimum frequency is reached which will maintain the desired therapeutic effect. Atopica should be given at least one hour before or two hours after a meal. If a dose is missed, the next dose should be administered (without doubling) as soon as possible, but dosing should be no more frequent than once daily.

Atopica should be stored and dispensed in the original unit-dose container at controlled room temperature 59°-77°F (15°-25°C). Keep away from children and pets.

Atopica is contraindicated for use in dogs with a history of neoplasia. Do not use in dogs with a hypersensitivity to cyclosporine.

Atopica (cyclosporine) is a systemic immunosuppressant that may increase the susceptibility to infection and the development of neoplasia.

Not for human use. Keep this and all drugs out of reach of children.

There are many possible drug interactions. Be sure to tell your veterinarian what other medications your pet is currently using. Give Atopica at least one hour before food or 2 hours after food.

If any of the following serious side effects occur, stop giving Atopica and seek emergency veterinary medical attention; an allergic reaction (difficulty breathing, swelling of the lips, tongue or face, and hives). Other less serious side effects may occur. Continue giving Atopica and talk to your veterinarian if your pet develops vomiting, soft stools or diarrhea, muscle cramps, muscle weakness, loss of appetite, and change of hair coat. Other side effects may occur. Talk to your veterinarian about any side effect that seems unusual or bothersome to the animal.

Atopica for dogs
July 13, 2018
The Atopica works fairly well for our dog. Getting him to take the medicine is the hard part. If this drug came in chewable form, it would be very helpful.

Merchant Response:We wish Atopica was easier to administer. Be sure to give lots of pets afterword. PS. We love the Cloverdale, CA area. =)
Pros
  • Keeps a skin condition our dog has, under control
Cons
  • The smell and taste must be terrible. Even in a pill pocket, he refuses to take it.
