Description

Semintra Oral Solution for Cats is an FDA-approved treatment for hypertension in felines. Hypertension is most commonly found in older cats and can affect multiple body parts including the eyes, heart and vascular system, brain and kidney and is often difficult to diagnose. While finding out your kitty has hypertension can be stressful, Semintra helps make the treatment process simple with an easy-to-use syringe and a liquid medication that's easy to administer directly into her mouth or on top of her favorite food.

Key Features

  • Controls systemic hypertension in cats
  • Easy to give liquid formula
  • Give directly by mouth, or next to or on top of a small amount of food

How It Works

Semintra (telmisartan oral solution) is a clear, colorless to yellowish viscous solution containing 10 mg/mL telmisartan. Telmisartan is an orally active, non-peptide, selective angiotensin II subtype 1 (AT1) receptor blocker, which helps control hypertension.

Indications

SEMINTRA is indicated for the control of systemic hypertension in cats.

Hypertension in Cats

A silent disease

While hypertension can be a common problem in older cats, the condition can be difficult to diagnose.

Hypertension can affect many parts of the body before detection and is strongly associated with target organ damage.

  • Eyes
  • Heart and vascular system
  • Brain
  • Kidneys

Without treatment, this silent disease can lead to serious illness and, sometimes, death.

Most often develops as secondary hypertension to diseases such as CKD and hyperthyroidism.

Caution:

Federal law restricts this drug to use by or on the order of a licensed veterinarian.

Information for Cat Owners

Always provide the Client Information Sheet with each prescription and review it with the cat owner. Advise cat owners that adverse reactions can occur with use of SEMINTRA. The most common adverse reactions reported during the field studies included vomiting, diarrhea, lethargy, weight loss, anemia and dehydration.

Contraindications:

Do not use in cats with a hypersensitivity to telmisartan.

Human Warnings:

Not for human use. Keep out of reach of children.

SEMINTRA is an angiotensin II antagonist/angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB). Pregnant women should avoid contact with SEMINTRA because substances that act on the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) such as angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) can cause fetal and neonatal morbidity and death during pregnancy in humans.

Precautions:

SEMINTRA has not been evaluated in cats with systolic blood pressure >200 mm Hg.

SEMINTRA can cause mild anemia or nonregenerative anemia. Cats should be monitored for anemia when initiating treatment with SEMINTRA.

SEMINTRA may cause inappetence and weight loss in some cats. Cats should be monitored for weight loss when initiating treatment with SEMINTRA. Use with caution in cats with a history of vomiting, inappetence or weight loss.

The safe use of SEMINTRA in cats with hepatic disease has not been evaluated. SEMINTRA is metabolized by the liver.

The safe use of SEMINTRA has not been evaluated in cats less than 9 months of age.

The safe use of SEMINTRA has not been evaluated in cats that are pregnant, lactating, or intended for breeding. See Human Warnings.

The safe use with other anti-hypertensive medications has not been evaluated.

Storage:

Store at or below 25°C (77°F) with excursions permitted up to 40°C (104°F). Once the bottle is opened, use the contents within six months.

Let your veterinarian know if your cat is prone to vomiting, inappetence, or weight loss, or if they have hepatic disease, or if they are pregnant, nursing, or may be used for breeding.

Glad to get my cat's med here
May 11, 2022
Thankfully I could find an expensive med cheaper on this site. The only glitch is I used their sitewide discount at the time but later was getting charged the price without the discount. Customer Service, to their credit, did fix it and added the discount back but hopefully that doesn't happen again. Other than that, it was a great purchase.

Merchant Response:Chris, glad you called in and got the discount applied. ?
Pros
  • Discounted, quick with obtaining the prescription from my vet.
Cons
  • Discount was removed but was reapplied when I phoned Customer Service.

Not only is the medication efficient, it’s easy to dispense. No more cutting and crushing pills unsure of exact dosage. Our cat thanks you.

Good product not just for cats
January 14, 2021
My pup has been on Semintra for proteinuria and it is helping control and keep the levels of the protein in his urine manageable.
This medication is not only for hypertension in cats.
Pros
  • Used for dogs to manage proteinuria as well.
Cons
  • Medication crystallize so it's important to rinse the syringe after each use.
