Itrapet comes in three variants—20 mg Oral Suspension (60ml), 100 mg Tablets, and 200 mg Tablets—to provide flexibility in dosing based on pet size and infection severity. The oral suspension is ideal for small pets or precise dosing, while the tablet forms cater to medium and large pets for convenience. With optimized strength, it ensures effective therapy with minimal side effects. Itrapet® is safer and more effective than ketoconazole and terbinafine, offering better absorption, a higher safety margin, and broad-spectrum antifungal action, making it the best choice for treating fungal infections in pets.
Compared to ketoconazole and terbinafine, Itrapet® is safer and requires a lower dosage to achieve the same therapeutic effects. It has lower hepatotoxicity, fewer gastrointestinal side effects, and minimal impact on adrenal function, making it a preferred choice for long-term antifungal treatment in pets. Its selective action against fungal enzymes ensures better tolerability without affecting essential metabolic pathways in the host.
Itrapet® is available in oral suspension (20 mg) and tablet forms (100 mg & 200 mg), allowing precise dosing based on pet size, species, and infection severity. The suspension ensures easy administration for small pets, while tablets provide convenient dosing for larger pets. This flexibility ensures consistent drug levels in the bloodstream, leading to faster recovery and reduced chances of recurrence.
