Treatment:
The premise is that you need to know how to inject yourself, subcutaneous injection.
1, cat interferon: 12 yuan / only, 5 a course of treatment.
Injections, I buy my own Beijing Iron Grass brand, said to be better than other brands. The veterinary hospital is prescribed by Zhongke Baike, after consulting Beijing Iron Grass and Zhongke Baike is a family. It should be used with water for injection. Dosage: 300,000-500,000 IU/kg body weight, for example: cat 2.8KG, it is recommended to play one. Once a day. (For specific dosage, refer to the instruction manual)
Feline interferon ω is the most active feline interferon with 5-10 times higher antiviral activity than feline interferon alpha.
2. Antibiotics: 50 RMB/only for Schno, 5 RMB/tablet for Baylis, all for a course of 5 days. (Here two kinds of drugs, only one on the line, their own choice)
I myself in the use of the U.S. Pfizer's speed Novo injection, this drug has a lot of drawbacks, it is more difficult to push the need to push with a 2 ml syringe, and I think that playing this injection, cats will feel the pain, and 3 weeks after the opening of the expiration date! One is 10ml. Dosage: 1KG/0.1ML.
Example: cat 2.8KG, 0.25ML once a day. (Specific dosage, refer to the instruction manual)
Another can be used orally, Bayer produces Bayli, the benefits need not be mentioned.
Example: 2.8KG one tablet at a time. Once a day. (Specific dosage, refer to the instructions for use)
3, drip castor seed Kang: 60 yuan / set, you need to use 10ML, 1ML syringe.
The use of this medicine is the syringe pumped out, filling the nose. (Syringe to remove the needle Oh!) It's very cruel, isn't it. But the effect is very obvious. 5 times a day, every hour drops, each time the left and right nostril 0.25ml. with a set will be cured, a set is two bottles of powder a solvent.
4, Meni meow meni-one high purity L-lysine: 9 yuan / bag, 5 days a course of treatment. (Personally, I don't think it's necessary.)
I think this is auxiliary, personally I think the role is not so great. It is the same kind of thing as the nasal support sacrament Cat An, but the purity is higher than Cat An, which is used to increase resistance. This is individually wrapped and one bag is a single dosage, once a day.
One, cat nasal branch introduction:
Cat nasal branch that is the cat's viral rhinotracheitis disease is also known as infectious rhinotracheitis. Is the upper respiratory tract of cats infectious very strong an acute infectious disease.
The second? Etiology
The pathogen of this disease is feline rhinotracheitis herpesvirus. Under natural conditions, it is generally transmitted via the respiratory and digestive tracts.
After the cat is infected with this disease, the virus can multiply in the epithelial cells of the nasal cavity, pharynx, organs, conjunctiva and tongue of the diseased cat and be excreted outside the body with its secretions.
Some cats do not show symptoms after infection, which is called latent infection, but can still excrete the virus to the outside. Therefore, healthy cats can be infected with the disease when they come into direct contact with secretions or contaminated utensils, such as feed, water, utensils and the surrounding environment.
The virus can also spread rapidly through droplets.
Three, diagnostic points
Based on clinical symptoms and epidemiological characteristics of the preliminary diagnosis, but the diagnosis must rely on laboratory tests.
Fourth, clinical symptoms
In the early stages of the disease, the body temperature rises, upper respiratory tract infection symptoms are obvious, paroxysmal coughing, sneezing, tearing, conjunctivitis, loss of appetite, weight loss, depressed, nasal secretions increase, the beginning of the plasmacytosis, and then become purulent.
Kittens with the disease die in about half a month, and secondary infections have a higher mortality rate. In adult cats, the infection appears as conjunctivitis with white spots on the eyes. The cornea is congested, the mouth is eroded and ulcerated, feeding is difficult, and there is a constant flow of sticky discharge from the mouth with a foul odor.
Chronic with sinusitis, ulcerative conjunctivitis and ophthalmoplegia as the main features, the severe cases can cause blindness, nasal cavity due to inflammation can make the airway narrow, so as to respiratory difficulties, suffocation.
The mortality rate of adult cats is about 20%-30%. Cats can gradually regain their health after 7 days of treatment resistance.
V. Epidemiological characteristics
The disease spreads rapidly, often sudden onset, the clinical manifestations of sick cats are varied.
The incubation period is 2-6 days, kittens are more susceptible than adult cats, and the symptoms are more obvious, especially the mortality rate is higher after the infection of young.
Six, conventional treatment
The treatment of this disease mainly uses antibacterial drugs to prevent secondary infection, and with symptomatic treatment.
1. Tetracycline injection 0.1mg/kg body weight, 2 times/day, intravenous injection.
2. gentamicin 1~15,000 units/kg body weight, dexamethasone 0.5mg/kg body weight, mixed intramuscularly, 2 times/day;
3. Conjunctivitis can be used for closure therapy: vanguardin 0.05g/kg body weight, dexamethasone 0.5mg/kg body weight, 2% procaine 0.15mg/kg body weight mixed, subconjunctival closure, 1 times/day. Also available chloramphenicol ophthalmic solution, cortisone ophthalmic solution alternating eye spotting, 3-5 times / day.
4. Oral ulcers can be coated with iodized glycerin, oral multivitamins,
5. Dehydration of non-feeding cats can be intravenous rehydration solution.
7. Alternative treatment:?
The following treatments have been practiced really effective and fast, only need to pay attention to individual allergies can be, the general situation of one to two days.
1. Acid-free Vitamin C 0.25 grams each time, 3-4 times a day, role: antiviral
2.#2003 colloidal silver each time a straw orally, 3-4 times a day, role: the body, the oral anti-inflammatory
3. Colloidal silver drops nose, each side of the nostril, three drops (three drops in order to let the colloidal silver deep into the nasal cavity, such as the way to ensure that the drops to the nose the deepest part of the nose, one drop can be), three times a day. ), three times a day. Role: treatment of rhinitis
4.2003 colloidal silver small half a drop mixed with 0.5 ml of sterilized water injection, eye drops, two drops on one side, three times a day. Role: the treatment of conjunctivitis
5. Give fresh air at the same time pay attention to warmth, do not breathe the cold air, it is recommended to use the heater. If you have serious breathing difficulties, you can inhale oxygen or use a syringe to hit air into the nose. Role: rapid ventilation of the nose
6. high body temperature can be used to rub alcohol on the flesh of the palm and belly to cool down, or use Chaihu injection to reduce fever.
7. Slight dehydration can be fed 5% glucose water, severe dehydration must be intravenous rehydration solution to prevent dehydration to death.
In addition, pay attention to supplemental nutrition and electrolyte adjustment, recommended the use of pet nutrition cream. The use of anti-inflammatory drugs should pay attention to the injection of probiotics to restore intestinal function, such as mamma love. Two to three days after the good, continue to drop the nose for three days, twice a day, to reduce the occurrence of the sequelae of nasal branch.
Eight, related knowledge:
Feline viral bronchitis is caused by feline herpesvirus type I is a monstrous, high contact upper respiratory tract infections in cats. It mainly infects young cats, with an incidence rate of 100% and a mortality rate of 50%.
1. Pathogen feline viral rhinotracheitis (FHV-1) in the classification of herpesviruses belongs to the herpesviridae family, herpesvirus A subfamily viruses. It has the general characteristics of herpes viruses. The viral particles are dense in the center, with a capsule membrane, and are double-stranded DNA viruses.FHV-1 is weakly resistant to the external environment, and is sensitive to acid, heat, and lipid solvents. Formaldehyde and phenol can inactivate it. It can survive for 180 days at _60℃, and can be inactivated at 50℃ in 4-5 minutes. Inactivated in 12 hours under dry conditions.
2. Epidemiology FHV-1 is widely distributed in the world, the disease is mainly contact infection, the virus is discharged through the nose, eyes, oral secretions, sick cats and healthy cats through direct nose to nose contact and inhalation of droplets containing the virus through the respiratory tract. Droplet transmission can occur within 1 meter in still air. Naturally recovered cats can carry and excrete the virus for a long time and become a dangerous source of infection. Cats in the early stages of the disease can excrete large amounts of poison through secretions for up to 14 days.
3. Symptoms The incubation period of the disease is 2-6 days. Kittens are more susceptible than adult cats and the symptoms are severe. Sudden onset of the affected cats, the body temperature rises about 40 ℃, and the fever, days do not subside, the upper respiratory tract symptoms, paroxysmal coughing and sneezing, nasal plasma and purulent secretions, conjunctivitis symptoms are obvious, shy, tearing. Depression, loss of appetite or non-feeding, progressive emaciation. Nasal fluid and tears are characterized by a clear liquid initially, which changes to a mucopurulent discharge as symptoms develop. About 50% or more of kittens die, and the mortality rate is higher if secondary mixed infections occur. Some affected cats can see changes of corneal dendritic congestion conjunctival edema . Tongue, hard palate and soft palate, lips and mouth can be seen ulcers, ulcers in the early stage of the manifestation of blisters, 2-3 days after the rupture, epithelial yellowing, shedding, the emergence of a typical ulcer foci. In chronic cases, chronic sinusitis, ulcerative conjunctivitis and total ophthalmoplegia can be seen, and severe cases can be blind. Blood changes: WBC lower than normal values can be seen at the beginning of the disease, low lymphocytes.
4. Prevention The cat triad for prevention. Establish good ventilation environment and disinfection measures, pay attention to environmental hygiene, reduce feeding density, find sick cats timely isolation, disinfection, to prevent contact transmission. First of all, the nasal branch belongs to the contact infectious disease, mainly by air and droplet infection, so sick cats and healthy cats must do a good job of isolation ~ this isolation can not just simply close the cage can be solved, must be separated from the room isolation. And pay attention to opening windows and ventilation. Ensure that the sick cat's isolation room is clean and comfortable, dirty environment will aggravate the condition. The second is to ensure that the sick cat's diet.
Must ensure that the sick cat to eat as long as the food is not a big problem must not be delayed. Since cats perceive the flavor of food through the sense of smell, many cats can't smell the food if their sense of smell is affected by too much snot. Therefore, once the sick cat refuses to eat, you must take measures to feed it with a strong syringe. You can choose some strong flavor such as canned wonderful package of food.
If you use a syringe to feed, you can choose to use Heinz baby puree, according to my experience to see carrots and beef puree and chicken puree is more and their taste. Use the syringe to extract some of course the syringe is to remove the needle, from the side of the cat's mouth inserted into the mouth little by little feed, feed a mouthful of wait a moment to wait for him to swallow before feeding the second mouth, to avoid them choking, if choking into the lungs is easy to cause life-threatening. You can also choose Hills ad canned food, which is very nutritious. Nutritional creams are also essential to boost immunity increase energy and calories. After that it's on to the medication. Nasal branch cats usually have red, swollen, tearful and runny eyes.
When the symptoms are mild, there are only some watery tears and snot, but if the symptoms are severe, the snot and tears will become thick and greenish-yellow in color. Sometimes the tears are too much too sticky will stick to the eyelids eyes can not open, snot gaba will block the nostrils make it difficult to breathe. This time must be used to medical cotton dipped in warm water little by little around the eyes and nose of the sticky gabba melt away ~ and then gently wipe away. Then put on the eye drops eye drops selection according to my personal experience in the treatment I recommend the following kinds. Oxyfloxacin eye drops (anti-inflammatory) + Dianbizhu (containing dexamethasone hormone) + ribavirin (antiviral) + erythromycin ophthalmic ointment (night time use) Each of the above eye drops except erythromycin 4-5 times a day to point out the best average time, at least 3 times can not be less in the eyes of the serious edema when you must use the Dianbizhu, this is a kind of hormone-containing eye drops, can quickly ease the Edema state, but do not use more, edema symptoms disappear after immediately stop using, because hormones on the eyes is a certain side effects. Before each point to wipe the secretions around the eyes carefully clean, and then start the medicine, an eye a drop, and then lift the eyelids to ensure that the eye drops are fully wet eyes.
Many of my comrades have used nasal drops to treat their cats, but I personally don't think they're very effective, and it's easy for them to choke their cats. So I usually do not use this method. But if too much snot blocked the nostrils, you need to point a drop of eye drops in the nasal cavity, you can let the cat's nose ventilation. A little bit is good, otherwise it will choke the cat. Oral medication, usually using pediatric amoxicillin or pediatric azithromycin, aqi to be less irritating than amoxicillin, one-third of a bag at a time, with lukewarm water and then into the mouth with a syringe, the method is the same as feeding puree, the same way, you can not be in a hurry to feed little by little. Once in the morning, once in the evening, and once in the middle of the day, you can add Cat On. Cat On contains amino acids, which have some effect on the treatment and prevention of the early stages of nasal branching.
Injections of antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs are also essential. Schno (Pfizer from the United States), Bayli (made in the United States), Mafo (imported), ceftriaxone (domestic), polymyxin (domestic), these are injectable medicines for the treatment of nasal branch, which are very effective. Generally 5-7 days for a cycle. The amount of injection depends on the size of the cat, it is best to go to the doctor for confirmation.
Some cats are too small to be injected. In addition, if the cat's symptoms are severe, and the nostrils are severely blocked and cannot be relieved by drops of medication, nebulization can be used, which can quickly restore the cat's sense of breathing and smell. I had a kitten that couldn't smell or eat at all, and immediately started eating after nebulization. That's why nebulization is so effective in treating nasal stems.
The most important thing is that although nasal branch is not a terminal disease, it has a certain mortality rate, especially for kittens. So it's important to make sure it's detected and treated early. If nothing can be done to get the cat to eat, then it must be taken to the hospital for fluids, because once a cat is dehydrated due to a hunger strike things can get very bad.
The so-called three points of treatment and seven points of nutrition. If you have a sick cat at home, you have to give up your spare time, and you have to sacrifice your sleep. When I picked up a litter of 5 kittens, all of which had nasal branches, I basically had no time to rest, and I could only sleep after 12pm every night, and remembered to get up at 5am to wipe their faces and feed them medicine. Later, all 5 kittens recovered without a single death. I'm sure you'll be able to find a lot more than just a couple of kittens in the market, but I'm sure you'll be able to find a lot more than just a couple of kittens in the market.
Nasal stenosis is not a scary thing, as long as you treat it carefully, take care of it, and get enough nutrition, you can recover in a month or so. Finally, I wish all cats a healthy and happy life.
