Atopica 100mg/ml is a medicine for the symptomatic treatment of chronic allergic dermatitis in cats and dogs (weighing more than 2kg).

Active substance: Cyclosporine 100 mg

Cyclosporine exerts anti-inflammatory and antipruritic effects in the treatment of allergic and atopic dermatitis.

Allergic dermatitis and atopic dermatitis are common skin diseases in cats and dogs, respectively. They are caused by allergens such as, for example, house dust mites or pollens that stimulate an exaggerated immune response. The disease is chronic and recurrent. Cyclosporine acts selectively on the immune cells involved in the allergic reaction and reduces the inflammation and itching associated with allergic dermatitis.

The clinical signs of allergic and atopic dermatitis, such as itching and skin inflammation, are not specific to this disease. Other causes of dermatitis, such as ectoparasitic infestations or food allergies, should be evaluated and eliminated whenever possible. Good practice is to treat flea infestations before and during dermatitis treatment. A complete clinical examination must be carried out before treatment.

The immune status of cats in relation to FeLV and FIV infections must be assessed before treatment. Any type of infection must be properly treated before starting treatment. Infections occurring during treatment do not necessarily constitute a reason for discontinuing the veterinary medicinal product, unless the infection is serious.

The efficacy and safety of cyclosporine have not been evaluated in cats less than 6 months of age or in cats weighing less than 2.3 kg.

Posology and route of administration:

Cats: The recommended dose of cyclosporine is 7 mg/kg of body weight (0.07 ml of oral solution per kg) and should initially be administered daily. The frequency of administration should subsequently be decreased depending on the response.

Dogs (weighing more than 2kg): The recommended dose of cyclosporine is 5 mg/kg of body weight (0.05 ml of oral solution per kg) and should initially be administered daily. The frequency of administration should subsequently be decreased depending on the response.
