Ventipulmin Syrup is a treatment for acute and chronic respiratory disease where airway obstruction due to bronchospasm and/or mucus accumulation is a contributing factor and improved mucociliary clearance is desirable. To be used alone or as adjunctive therapy in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). Acute, sub-acute and chronic respiratory allergic conditions.
Ventipulmin Syrup contains the active ingredient, Clenbuterol HCl, which quickly reaches lung tissue concentration to provide relief. The syrup causes smooth muscles in the airway to relax, allowing for bronchodilation, which helps decrease resistance in the respiratory pathway and increase airflow to the lungs. Ventipulmin Syrup also decreases the thickness of mucus to help improve respiratory airflow.
Ventipulmin Syrup (clenbuterol hydrochloride) is indicated for the management of horses affected with airway obstruction, such as occurs in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
Administer orally twice a day (b.i.d.). Initial dose is 0.5 mL/100 lbs body weight (0.8 mcg/kg) twice daily.
Remove safety cap and seal; replace with enclosed plastic dispensing cap. Remove cover from dispensing tip and connect syringe (without needle). Draw out appropriate volume of Ventipulmin Syrup. Administer orally to the horse. Replace cover on dispensing tip to prevent leakage.

Ventipulmin Syrup antagonizes the effects of prostaglandin F2 alpha and oxytocin. Ventipulmin Syrup should not be used in pregnant mares near term. Because tachycardia may occur, Ventipulmin Syrup should not be used in horses suspected of having cardiovascular impairment.
The effect on reproduction in breeding stallions and brood mares has not been determined. Treatment starting with dosages higher than the initial dose is not recommended.
Not for human use. Do not use in horses intended for human consumption. Keep out of the reach of children. In case of accidental ingestion, contact a physician immediately. Ingestion of Ventipulmin Syrup may cause undesirable reactions. Clenbuterol, like other beta adrenergic agonists, can produce significant cardiovascular effects in some people as evidenced by elevated pulse rate, blood pressure changes and/or ECG changes.
The safety cap should be placed on the bottle when not in use.
Mild sweating, muscle tremor, restlessness, urticaria and tachycardia may be observed in some horses during the first few days of treatment. May cause elevated creatine kinase (CK) serum levels. Ataxia was observed in 3 out of 239 horses (1.3%) in clinical studies. To report suspected adverse reactions, to obtain a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS), or for technical assistance, call 1-866-638-2226.
