Approved for dogs with congestive heart failure (CHF).
Reduces LV mass, improves diastolic function, alters DE, and reduces myocardial fibrosis in cats with HCM (without CHF).
Effective in dogs & cats with chronic renal failure (CRF) by decreasing glomerular capillary pressure and providing anti-proteinuric effects to reduce renal lesions.
Cardiopet Tablet is available in two strengths (2.5 mg and 5 mg) to ensure precise dosing based on the pet's weight and condition severity, allowing veterinarians to tailor treatment effectively for dogs and cats with congestive heart failure (CHF), hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), and chronic renal failure (CRF). This dual variation provides flexibility in managing cardiac and renal conditions, reducing the risk of under- or overdosing. By offering improved treatment accuracy, Cardiopet ensures optimal heart and kidney function, enhanced blood circulation, and minimized complications. Recommended by veterinarians, it delivers safe and effective cardiac care with minimal side effects, making it a trusted choice for pet owners seeking reliable cardiovascular support.
Ramipril is an ACE inhibitor that effectively reduces angiotensin II levels, leading to the dilation of coronary arteries. This results in lower blood pressure, improved blood flow to the heart, and reduced strain on the heart muscle, making it a crucial treatment for dogs with congestive heart failure (CHF) and cats with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM).
By inhibiting angiotensin II production, Ramipril helps prevent left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy, myocardial fibrosis, and excessive cardiac remodeling. This leads to better diastolic function, reduced heart muscle thickening, and improved overall cardiac performance, enhancing long-term heart health in pets.
Q
A
Cardiopet is a Ramipril-based ACE inhibitor used to treat congestive heart failure (CHF) in dogs and manage hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) in cats. It helps improve heart function, reduce blood pressure, and enhance circulation, ensuring better cardiovascular health in pets.
Q
A
Yes, Cardiopet is beneficial for dogs and cats with chronic kidney disease (CKD). It lowers glomerular capillary pressure and reduces protein loss in urine, helping to slow the progression of kidney damage while improving overall renal function.
Q
A
Cardiopet works by blocking the production of angiotensin II, a hormone that causes blood vessels to constrict. By doing so, it dilates arteries, lowers blood pressure, reduces heart strain, and prevents cardiac remodeling, making it an effective treatment for heart and kidney-related conditions in pets.
