For feline weight loss, Mirataz (Mirtazapine) Transdermal Ointment can help control undesired weight loss, usually caused by kidney, dental or gastrointestinal diseases. Apply Mirataz to the inner side of your cat's earlobe, where it absorbs through the skin into the bloodstream. Mirataz ointment contains the drug mirtazapine and is FDA approved. Comes in 5g tubes.How it Works
The pharmacodynamic action of mirtazapine involves antagonism of several receptor sites Antagonism of presynaptic a-2 receptors, serotonin receptors (5-HT2A, 5-HT2C, 5-HT3), and histamine receptors (H1) by mirtazapine has been demonstrated to result in: Orexigenic effect via interaction with nuclei within the hypothalamus1. Enhanced release of both serotonin (5-HT) and noradrenaline (NE)2
Special Precautions
Keep away from children and animals. After application, care should be taken that people or other animals in the household do not come in contact with the treated cat for 2 hours because mirtazapine can be absorbed transdermally and orally. Mirataz (mirtazapine transdermal ointment) is for topical use in cats only under veterinary supervision. Do not use in cats with a known hypersensitivity to mirtazapine or any of the excipients. Do not use in cats treated with monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs). Not for human use. Wear gloves when handling/applying, wash hands after and avoid contact between the treated cat and people or other animals for 2 hours following application. Use with caution in cats with hepatic and kidney disease. Cat's food intake should be monitored upon discontinuation. Safety has not been evaluated in cats less than 2 kg, less than six months of age or in breeding, pregnant or lactating cats. Do not administer orally or to the eye.
