The premise is that you need to know how to inject and inject subcutaneously.
1, feline interferon: 12 yuan/bird, 5 birds for one course of treatment.
Injection, I bought Beijing Tiecao brand myself, which is said to be better than other brands. Veterinary hospital is run by Zhongke Encyclopedia. After consultation, Beijing Tiecao and Zhongke Encyclopedia belong to one family. Water for injection. Dosage: 300,000-500,000 IU/kg body weight, for example: 2.8KG cat, it is recommended to take one. Once a day. (Please refer to the instruction for specific dosage. )
Cat interferon ω has the strongest antiviral activity, and its antiviral activity is 5 ~ 10 times higher than that of cat interferon α.
2. Antibiotics: Sono 50 yuan/tablet, Belle 5 yuan/tablet, both for 5 days. There are two kinds of medicines here, just use one, and choose for yourself. )
I used SUNOX injection from Pfizer USA. This medicine has many shortcomings and is difficult to push. It needs to be pushed with a 2ml needle, and I think the cat will feel pain after this needle. It will expire after 3 weeks of opening! ! One is 10ml. Dose: 1KG/0. 1ML.
Example: 2.8KG cat, 0.25ML once a day. (Please refer to the instruction for specific dosage. )
Another one can be taken orally, Bayer's Bayer, not to mention the benefits.
Example: 2.8KG one tablet at a time. Once a day. (Please refer to the instruction for specific dosage. )
3, Dijikang: 60 yuan/set, need to use 10ML, 1ML needle.
The use of this medicine is to plug the nose after pulling out the needle. (Pull out the needle! Isn't it cruel? But the effect is very obvious. Five times a day, every hour 1 time, 0.25ml per nostril. Just use one set, one set is two bottles of powder and one bottle of solvent.
4. Mini -one high-purity L- lysine: 9 yuan/bag, for 5 days. (Personally, I don't think it is necessary. )
I think this is auxiliary. Personally, I don't think it's that effective. It is the same thing as Mao 'an, a holy product of nasal branches, but its purity is higher than Mao 'an, which is used to increase resistance. This is packaged separately, one bag a day.
First of all, briefly introduce the cat's nasal branches:
Cat nasal branches are viral rhinotracheitis in cats, also known as infectious rhinotracheitis. It is an acute infectious disease of cats with strong upper respiratory tract infection.
Second,? The cause of disease
The pathogen of the disease is feline rhinotracheitis herpesvirus. Under natural conditions, it is generally transmitted through the respiratory tract and digestive tract.
After the cat is infected with this disease, the virus can multiply in the epithelial cells of the nasal cavity, throat, organs, conjunctiva and tongue of the sick cat, and be excreted with its secretions.
Some cats do not show symptoms after infection, which is called recessive infection, but they can still excrete the virus. Therefore, healthy cats can be infected with this disease when they come into direct contact with secretions or contaminated utensils, such as feed, water, utensils and the surrounding environment.
Viruses can also spread quickly through droplets.
Third, the main points of diagnosis
According to the clinical symptoms and epidemic characteristics, a preliminary diagnosis can be made, but the final diagnosis must rely on laboratory examination.
Fourth, clinical symptoms
At the beginning of the disease, the body temperature rises, and the symptoms of upper respiratory tract infection are obvious, such as paroxysmal cough, sneezing, tears, conjunctivitis, loss of appetite, weight loss, depression, and increased nasal secretions, which begin to be serous and then purulent.
Kittens died in about half a month, and the mortality rate of secondary infection was higher. Adult cats are infected with conjunctivitis and have white spots on their eyes. Corneal congestion, oral erosion and ulcer, difficulty in eating, sticky secretions constantly flowing out of the mouth, smelly.
Chronic sinusitis, ulcerative conjunctivitis and ophthalmia are the main features, which can cause blindness in severe cases. Inflammation of the nasal cavity can narrow the respiratory tract and even lead to dyspnea and suffocation.
The mortality rate of adult cats is about 20%-30%. Cats can gradually recover after 7 days of treatment.
Popular characteristics of verbs (abbreviation of verb)
The disease spreads rapidly and often happens suddenly. The clinical manifestations of sick cats are varied.
The incubation period is 2-6 days. Young cats are more susceptible to infection than adult cats, and the symptoms are more obvious, especially after infection, the mortality rate of young cats is higher.
Sixth, conventional treatment.
The treatment of this disease mainly adopts antibacterial drugs to prevent secondary infection and cooperate with symptomatic treatment. .
1。 Tetracycline injection 0. 1mg/kg body weight, twice a day, intravenous injection.
2。 Gentamicin 1~ 1.5 million units /kg body weight, dexamethasone 0.5mg/kg body weight, mixed intramuscular injection twice a day;
3。 Conjunctivitis can be treated by blocking: cephalosporin 0.05g/kg body weight, dexamethasone 0.5mg/kg body weight, 2% procaine 0. 15mg/kg body weight, subconjunctival blocking, once a day. Chloramphenicol eye drops and cortisone eye drops can also be used alternately, 3-5 times a day.
4。 Oral ulcers can be coated with iodine glycerin and taken orally with multivitamins.
5。 Dehydrated cats can receive intravenous injection.
Seven, alternative therapy:?
The following treatment methods are really effective and quick after practice, just pay attention to personal allergies, usually for one or two days.
1. Acid-free vitamin C 0.25g each time, 3-4 times a day, function: antivirus.
2.#2003 Colloidal silver is taken orally through a straw, 3-4 times a day, which has the function of diminishing inflammation in vivo and in oral cavity.
3. Drop colloidal silver into the nasal cavity, three drops per nostril (three drops are to let colloidal silver penetrate into the nasal cavity, and if there is a way to ensure that it drops to the deepest part of the nose, one drop is enough), three times a day. Function: Treating rhinitis.
4.2003 Mix half a drop of colloidal silver with 0.5 ml of sterile water and drop it into eyes, two drops on one side, three times a day. Function: Treating conjunctivitis.
5. Give fresh air while keeping warm. Don't breathe cold air. A heater is recommended. When breathing difficulties are severe, you can take oxygen or blow with a syringe at your nose. Function: rapid ventilation
6. If the body temperature is too high, you can wipe the palm and abdomen with alcohol to cool down, or use Bupleurum injection to reduce the fever.
7. Mild dehydration can be fed with 5% glucose water, and hypertonic dehydration must be infused intravenously to prevent dehydration from causing death.
In addition, pay attention to supplement nutrition and adjust electrolytes, and recommend using pet nutrition cream. When using anti-inflammatory drugs, we should pay attention to the use of probiotics to restore intestinal function, such as Mommy Love. After two to three days, continue to drip nose twice a day for three consecutive days to reduce the occurrence of sequelae of nasal branches.
Eight, related knowledge:
Feline viral tracheitis is a deformed and highly contagious upper respiratory infection caused by feline herpesvirus type ⅰ. It mainly infects young cats, with an incidence rate of 100% and a mortality rate of 50%.
1. Pathogenic feline viral rhinotracheitis (FHV- 1) belongs to herpesvirus family, herpesvirus A subfamily. It has the general characteristics of herpes virus. The virus particle center is dense, with envelope outside, double-stranded DNA virus. FHV- 1 has weak resistance to external environment and is sensitive to acid, heat and grease solvent. Formaldehyde and phenol can inactivate it. It can survive 180 days at _60℃ and be inactivated at 50℃ for 4-5 minutes. It can be inactivated 12 hours under dry conditions.
2. Epidemiology FHV- 1 is widely distributed in the world. The disease is mainly transmitted through contact. The virus is excreted through nose, eyes and mouth secretions, and sick cats and healthy cats are infected through nose-to-nose direct contact and inhalation of virus-containing droplets in respiratory tract. In still air, droplet propagation can occur in the range of 1 meter. Cats that recover naturally can carry poison for a long time and become a dangerous source of infection. Cats in the early stage of the disease can detoxify a lot through secretions in 14 days.
3. Symptoms The incubation period of this disease is 2-6 days. Young cats are more susceptible to infection and have more serious symptoms than adult cats. The cat suddenly became ill, with the body temperature rising by about 40℃, and fever lasting for several days, with obvious symptoms of upper respiratory tract, paroxysmal cough and sneezing, serous and purulent secretions in the nose, obvious symptoms of conjunctivitis, and shame and tears. Mental depression, loss of appetite or not eating, progressive emaciation. The characteristics of runny nose and tears, which are transparent liquids at first, turn into viscous purulent secretions with the development of symptoms. About 50% of kittens die, and the mortality rate is higher if they are mixed. Some cats can see corneal dendritic congestion and conjunctival edema. Ulcers can be seen on the tongue, hard palate, soft palate and lips. The initial stage of the ulcer is a blister. After 2-3 days, the blister bursts and the epithelium turns yellow and falls off, forming a typical ulcer focus. Chronic sinusitis, ulcerative conjunctivitis and panophthalmia can be seen in chronic cases, and severe cases can be blind. Hemogram changes: at the beginning of the disease, white blood cells were lower than normal and lymphocytes were lower.
4. Three defenses against cats. Establish good ventilation environment and disinfection measures, pay attention to environmental hygiene, reduce feeding density, isolate and disinfect sick cats in time to prevent contact and transmission. First of all, nasal branches are contact infectious diseases, which are mainly spread through air and droplets. Therefore, sick cats and healthy cats must be isolated. This kind of isolation can not be solved simply by closing the cage, but must be isolated in a separate room. And pay attention to window ventilation. Ensure that the isolation room of the sick cat is clean and comfortable, and the dirty environment will aggravate the condition. The second is to ensure the diet of sick cats.
Make sure the sick cat eats. As long as it eats, the problem is not too big and must not be delayed. Because cats perceive the smell of food through their sense of smell, many cats can't smell the smell of food once their smell is affected by too much snot. Therefore, once the sick cat refuses to eat, measures must be taken to feed it with a needle. You can choose some foods with strong flavor, such as canned Miao Bao.
If you feed with needles, you can choose Heinz baby patch. According to my experience, carrot beef sauce and chicken sauce taste better. Of course, the needle needs to be removed from the needle tube. Insert it into the mouth from the side of the cat's mouth and feed it bit by bit. Just wait until he swallows it, then feed him a second bite, so as not to choke them. If they suffocate in the lungs, it will easily lead to life-threatening. You can also choose Hills canned advertisement, which is very nutritious. Nutritional cream is also essential, which can improve immunity and increase physical strength and calories. We'll talk about medication later. Cats with nasal branches generally have red eyes, many tears and a runny nose.
When the symptoms are mild, there are only some watery tears and runny nose. If the symptoms are severe, runny nose and tears will become sticky and blue-yellow. Sometimes too many tears will stick to your eyelids and you can't open your eyes. A runny nose can clog the nostrils and make it difficult to breathe. At this time, it is necessary to use medical cotton dipped in warm water to melt the glue around the eyes and nose bit by bit ~ and then gently wipe it off. Then the choice of eye drops According to my personal treatment experience, I recommend the following points. Ofloxacin eye drops (anti-inflammatory)+Dianbishe (containing androgens)+Ribavirin (anti-virus)+Erythromycin eye ointment (used at night) The above eye drops, except erythromycin, are best 4-5 times a day on average, at least 3 times a day. When the eyes are severely edematous, the electric nose club must be used. This kind of eye drops contains hormones, which can quickly relieve edema. Carefully wipe the secretions around the eyes before each point, then start to apply the medicine, one drop per eye, and then lift the eyelids to ensure that the eye drops are fully moist.
Many comrades have used nasal drops to treat nasal branches, but I personally think that nasal drops have no effect and are easy to choke cats. So I don't usually use this method. However, if the nasal mucus blocks the nostrils too much, you need to drop a drop of eye drops in the nasal cavity to ventilate the cat's nose. Just a little, or you will choke on the cat. Oral amoxicillin for children or azithromycin for children are generally used. Archie Beamo is not so irritating. Wash one third of the bag with warm water at a time, and then use a needle in your mouth. The method is the same as feeding minced meat, so you can't feed it bit by bit in a hurry. Once in the morning, once in the evening and once in the middle. Mao 'an contains amino acids, which has a certain effect on the treatment and prevention of nasal branches in the early stage.
Injections of antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs are also essential. Suno (made by Pfizer), Beilei (made in America), Mafu (imported), Ceftriaxone (made in China) and Inositol (made in China) are all injection drugs for the treatment of nasal branches, and the effect is very good. Generally, 5-7 days is a cycle. The measurement of injection depends on the size of the cat, so it's best to check with a doctor.
Some cats are too young to be injected. In addition, if the cat's symptoms are serious, the nostrils are seriously blocked, and the medicine can't be relieved by dripping, atomization treatment can be used, which can quickly restore the cat's breathing and sense of smell. I once had a kitten, which had no sense of smell and didn't eat. After the atomization came back, she immediately began to eat. Therefore, atomization treatment of nasal branches is very effective.
Most importantly, although nasal branches are not terminally ill, they still have a certain mortality rate, especially for kittens. Therefore, early detection and early treatment must be achieved. If you can't let the cat eat in any case, you must take it to the hospital for infusion, because once the cat goes on a hunger strike and dehydrates, the situation will become very bad.
The so-called three-point rule and seven-point support. That's the reason. If the cat at home is sick, you must give up some spare time and sacrifice your sleep time. I picked up a litter of five kittens and they all got nasal branches. I basically have no time to rest. I don't go to bed until after 12 every night. Remember to wipe your face and take medicine at 5 am. Later, all five kittens recovered and none died. Later, such cases were encountered in adult cats and young cats. All cases were cured by this method.
Nose branches are not terrible. As long as careful treatment, nursing and adequate nutrition keep up, you can recover completely in basically one month. Finally, I wish all cats a healthy and happy life.
