...saying that there may/may not be a murmur with Jengo. I would go ahead with the testing as you are planning and your question about the Pimobendan is a good one to ask. Do so well in advance of the test as some medication which can affect a test result for a longer period of time than you...

...proBNP test was done on Feb. 16th and his score was 354... way above the 100 cutoff... which the vet said was HCM. :( The vet put him on Pimobendan right away so I didn't have a chance to research it until after he started on it. I don't like the idea of using this med if it's not...

...I'm sure Jengo's life had been shortened by my neglect or trust in the wrong vet. :( I have been reading about this new med he's on... Pimobendan... and some of the older studies on Tanya's site question it's use. Now I'm worried about giving it too him. This is so stressful... making...

...A Tiny Tab may go down easy with a little bit of bisque treat. Especially if these aren’t easy to chew. Transdermal may not absorb as well as oral. But if you can’t get it in him any other way, less optimal absorption is better than missed doses. Pimobendan for dogs: Uses, Dosage & Side Effects

My Sybil had late stage severe hcm not diagnosed until very late when she went into chf. She was on numerous meds including pimobendan, clopidigrel and others. She had crf too and excess fluids put her into chf. Just keep in mind that clopidogrel will not prevent blood clots. It is not an anti...

...confirmed late Thursday that he indeed had an enlarged heart. He's on a combination of Furosemide, Clopidogrel, spironolactone, pimobendan, and enoxaparin to help with his heart and pleural edema. His resting rate seems to be back down to 30 BPM and he's been affectionate as ever. We're...

...interpret the results. I'm going to schedule that today but I am also going to questions whether he should be off of this medication... Pimobendan... before having the tests done for a more accurate result. Does that make sense? I have a stethoscope and have listened to Jengo's heart a...

I don't even think it is the flavor, he hates the texture. He ate them at first. They are very dry and crumbly. Even the vet assumed this one would be the least problematic but it is the one he hates the most. It is easy to grind down into a powder but if he knows it is in something, he turns...

...it out for interpretation. I'm going to call and schedule that today. Hope it doesn't cost $$$$ but I just don't feel right giving Jengo Pimobendan if he isn't a true candidate for it. She also said that because he has CRF there is a limit to which drugs can be used for heart problems...

...not insisted that he continue to take Prednisolone if he is prone to heart problems. This is so upsetting. I have been reading up on Pimobendan/Vetmedin and found that it is a veterinary drug for dogs with CHF... used off label in cats with CHF. A statement on the drug company's website...

...issue? I'm also curious about your internist's comment that the proNBP test was high due to stress. The vet put Jengo on a drug = Pimobendan/Vetmedin that is being used off-label for cats and I have read on several websites that it should not be used for HCM just congestive heart...

...have chicken. I think a few won't cause any issue but I will have to keep an eye on his stool. The one he seems to hate the most is the pimobendan which is a chewable and he is refusing to eat it. He managed only half his dose which will have to do for now. I tasted the human grade taurine...

It's been almost one year since my boy's original diagnosis. He is still going strong! We didn't even have to increase his plavix. I mean lasix. The addition of pimobendan seem to be very helpful.

I'm a nervous wreck worrying about Jengo being on Pimobendan because I have read on legitimate medical sites, including the drug manufacturer's website, that it is not used for HCM but for CHF. The vet didn't say he has CHF though and she has never mentioned doing an ECG... probably doesn't...

Well. my cat has been on Pimobendan liquid 1.25mg/ml strength, 0.5 ml twice daily for 8 days now. He only nibbles his food, he's very lathergic with zero energy level. He was more active prior to starting the medication. I spoke with the vets office yesterday and vet said bring him in after he's...

Just wanting to know if it is normal for a cat that is currently taking Furosemide and Pimobendan to still cough often and breathe hard and shallow?

Hey all, My 13 yr old was diagnosed with HCM, but has not advanced to CHF yet. Cardiology specialist prescribed plavix and pimobendan. They said use of pimobendan is not tested for the cats particular kind of HCM, so I started the plavix right away and waited for a second opinion from my vet...
