ADD LIFE.

Don't wait to prescribe VETMEDIN to see the difference it can make for dogs with CHF.

VEtMEDIN is recommended by the ACVIM as part of standard treatment for dogs with CHF.1

Well-known clinical studies have established that VEtMEDIN can help dogs with CHF feel better and live longer.2,3

the QuESt study update showed that dogs treated with VEtMEDIN required less therapy to maintain quality of life (QOL) than those treated with an ACE inhibitor.4

Important safety information: the safe use of VEtMEDIN has not been evaluated in dogs younger than 6 months of age, dogs with congenital heart defects, dogs with diabetes mellitus or other serious metabolic diseases, dogs used for breeding, or pregnant or lactating bitches. use only in dogs with clinical evidence of heart failure. For additional information, see the full prescribing information enclosed.

Important safety information: VEtMEDIN should not be given in case of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, aortic stenosis, or any other clinical condition where an augmentation of cardiac output is inappropriate for functional or anatomical reasons. the safety of VEtMEDIN has not been established in dogs with asymptomatic heart disease or in heart failure caused by etiologies other than atrioventricular valvular insufficiency or dilated cardiomyopathy. use only in dogs with clinical evidence of heart failure. the most common side effects reported in field studies were poor appetite, lethargy, diarrhea, dyspnea, azotemia, weakness, and ataxia. If side effects should occur, pet owners should contact their veterinarian.

QUEST study update: Dogs on VETMEDIN required less therapy to maintain QOL than dogs on an ACE inhibitor.4

In contrast to VetSCOPE, which measured changes in QOL, the QuESt study focused on extending survival time so intensification of therapy was permitted.2,3‡

VEtMEDIN also improved body temperature, serum sodium concentration, total protein concentration, and packed cell volume, while reducing fluid retention.4

Please refer to the package insert enclosed.

VETMEDIN-treated dogs had less cardiac enlargement after therapy as demonstrated by significantly lower median vertebral heart score4

In dogs that were NOT given VETMEDIN, heart size continued to enlarge further beyond normal range.

Dogs that were NOT given VETMEDIN required more frequent administration of additional medications to maintain a similar QOL.

‡ Intensification of therapy was defined as an increase in the dose of benazepril or addition of concomitant treatment for either drug.4
