Dexazide

Dexazid:  

Dexazid is a diuretic drug specifically designed for racehorses and camels . This medication works by increasing urine production, which helps manage fluid buildup and promote electrolyte balance in these valuable animals.

benefits:

• Effective fluid management:  Dexazide promotes the removal of excess fluid from the body, which may help with conditions such as pulmonary edema (fluid in the lungs) and exercise-induced pulmonary hemorrhage (bleeding in the lungs).
• Improving Performance:  By addressing fluid buildup that can impair performance, Dexazide can contribute to improving respiratory function and exercise tolerance in racehorses and camels.
• Support electrolyte balance:  Diuretics can sometimes lead to electrolyte imbalance. DEXAZIDE is formulated to reduce these risks and may also help maintain electrolyte balance in certain situations.
• Convenient administration:  The drug is available in various forms, including oral paste and injectable solution, allowing for flexible administration based on the animal's needs and veterinary preference.

Uses:

Dexazid is used for the following purposes in horse and camel racing:

• Pulmonary edema treatment:  This condition involves fluid buildup in the lungs, which can significantly impair breathing and performance.
• Management of exercise-induced pulmonary hemorrhage (EIPH):  Dexazide may be used as part of a comprehensive management plan to help prevent or reduce bleeding in the lungs during exercise.
• Reducing fluid buildup associated with other conditions:  In specific cases, Dexazide may be used to manage fluid buildup in other tissues, under the supervision of your veterinarian.

Prohibitions:

• Do not give DEXAZIDE to animals with pre-existing kidney disease or dehydration.
• Use with caution in animals with electrolyte imbalance.
• Consult a veterinarian before using Dexazid in pregnant or lactating animals.
