What are the treatments for canine distemper?

Canine distemper is a disease that mainly occurs in canines. For example, for dogs at home, canine distemper is a very serious disease. This disease is highly contagious and can be easily transmitted through contact between dogs. Once contracted, canines will have diarrhea, sneezing and many other symptoms, and severe cases can even lead to death. So what is the treatment for this disease?

First, the method of treating canine distemper in the early stage:

Intramuscular injection: Bupleurum + Antongding to quickly reduce fever.

XX brand canine distemper monoclonal antibody + concentrated plasma or 5 million hybrid interferon and genetically engineered thymosin is the most effective and direct way to kill the virus.

Intravenous injection: Dexamethasone (ribavirin + Junbizhi + Qingkailing + Dexamethasone + Compound B1 + Shuanghuanglian) Note: Dexamethasone will significantly reduce the number of lymphocytes and greatly reduce the animal's resistance to non-specific infections. The practicality of this drug must be considered in combination with the actual situation of the individual's condition. It is not recommended for non-professionals to judge on their own. The number of dogs killed by this is difficult to count.

Oral: Angong Niuhuang Pills + Vitamin B Complex

Compound Licorice Mixture

Chinese medicine treatment: Radix Isatidis 20G, Radix Ophiopogonis 8G, Pinellia 7G, Flos Lonicerae 10G, Rhubarb 8G, Licorice 7G, Forsythia suspensa 10G, Scutellaria baicalensis 8G, Gypsum 40G, Astragalus 10G

Donghua 8G Poria 10G Atractylodes 9G Bupleurum 6G

Methods for treating convulsions in the late stage of canine distemper:

When frequent convulsions occur, you can take: chlorpromazine or diazepam, oryzanol

Oral: Angong Niuhuang Pills

For oral medication, you can choose to crush the medicine and put it into an easily digestible liquid (such as rice soup, broth or oral solution for clearing heat and detoxification, etc., milk is not easy for canines to digest), and then push it into the mouth of the sick dog with a syringe.

The success rate of treatment during this period is pitifully low, but please do not give up. If he can live one more second, please don't choose to give up before that second.

Second, aggravating factors

The clinical symptoms of CDV infection vary in severity depending on the virus species, environmental factors, individual response to infection, age, immune status, etc. Severe canine distemper infection is more common in unvaccinated puppies, with symptoms such as pneumonia, diarrhea, dehydration, and anorexia. If it is co-infected with canine infectious hepatitis and other diseases, the mortality rate will be even higher.

Veterinary hospitals generally believe that it is directly related to the following:

The early or late stage of treatment means that early cases can be cured, while mid- and late-stage cases are difficult to cure.

The "efficacy" of biological drugs such as therapeutic serum or antibodies.

and the dog’s pedigree.

age.

Immunization status: Dogs that have completed the immunization program, whether active or passive, can reduce the symptoms of the disease.

Timing of treatment: Since the early symptoms of canine distemper are similar to those of the common cold, it is easy to delay the best control and treatment opportunity for the disease.

The treatment effect of canine distemper is closely related to the establishment of the treatment plan. An appropriate treatment plan should embody the basic principle of "treating both the symptoms and the root causes" and combining pathogenic therapy with symptomatic therapy.

Third, post-recovery care

Due to the sequelae of canine distemper itself on dogs, coupled with long-term medication, the dog's physical condition will decline. At this time, using traditional Chinese medicine with fewer side effects to maintain the dog's health is the best choice. Mainly used to maintain the dog's internal organs, liver, gallbladder and kidneys. "Magic Kangtide" is very effective for canine neurological symptoms (such as convulsions) and can completely cure them.
