Cyclosporine Capsules are indicated for the control of atopic dermatitis in pets. Effective in treating conditions like eczema, cyclosporine helps alleviate symptoms such as itching and inflammation, providing relief from discomfort. The drug targets the immune system cells that are directly responsible for the allergic reaction, making it an effective treatment option for many pets. While cyclosporine is FDA-approved only for use in dogs, veterinarians may sometimes find it appropriate to prescribe this eczema medication for cats as well. Sold in 30 ct. containers.How it Works

Cyclosporine interferes with the production of helper T-lymphocyte interleukin. Other immune suppressing medications kill immune system cells, but Cyclosporine works differently.

• Painful urination
• Fever (over 103°)

These could be early indicators of serious side effects.
