Product details
Description
Felimazole Coated Tablets, manufactured by Dechra, are a specialized veterinary prescription medication formulated to manage hyperthyroidism in cats. This condition, characterized by the overproduction of thyroid hormones, can significantly impact a cat's health and vitality.
Each tablet contains 5 milligrams of methimazole, the active ingredient recognized for its ability to block the production of excess thyroid hormones in the feline body. The tablets feature a specialized coating designed to mask the medication's bitter taste and reduce direct contact with the active ingredient, ensuring easier administration for pet owners and greater safety.
These tablets serve as a critical tool for stabilizing thyroid hormone levels, whether for long-term management or as a preparatory measure prior to surgical intervention. As an imported USA-sourced product available through Dropy India, this medication meets rigorous quality standards for veterinary care.
Proper administration is essential for therapeutic efficacy; therefore, these tablets must be used under the direct supervision and guidance of a licensed veterinarian who can determine the appropriate dosage based on individual patient needs and consistent health monitoring.
How to use
- Administer strictly as directed by your veterinarian.
- The typical starting dose is 2.5 mg given every 12 hours.
- Do not crush, break, or split tablets unless explicitly authorized by a professional.
- Always wear gloves when handling, as this medication is a human teratogen; pregnant women or individuals with thyroid conditions should avoid direct contact.

FAQs
Is your cat currently taking this medication, or are you considering it?
Felimazole is a prescription veterinary medication intended for cats diagnosed with hyperthyroidism. If you are considering this treatment, please consult your veterinarian to evaluate your cat's thyroid hormone levels and determine if this is the correct clinical path for your pet.
What are the common side effects to watch out for?
While effective, some cats may experience side effects such as loss of appetite, vomiting, lethargy, or skin irritation. It is vital to maintain the recommended monitoring schedule of blood tests at 3 and 6 weeks after starting treatment to ensure your cat's safety.
Why is the tablet coated?
The coating serves two primary purposes: it masks the naturally bitter taste of methimazole to improve palatability for the cat and provides a protective barrier to prevent human skin contact with the potent active ingredient.
Are these tablets authentic and imported from the USA?
Yes, Dropy India sources these Felimazole tablets directly from reputable USA suppliers, ensuring that you receive the authentic, high-quality veterinary product you expect.
Can I crush or break the tablets?
You should never crush or break the tablets unless specifically instructed by your veterinarian. Breaking the coating can expose the handler to the medication and alter the way the medicine is released and absorbed by your cat.
