Treatment of Arthritis in Dogs and Cats: drugs and monitoring
Treatment of Arthritis in Dogs and Cats: drugs and monitoring Side Effects 0 Views • 2 months ago

Has your pet just been diagnosed and your wondering what the treatment of arthritis in dogs and cats is? In this video I discuss the different drug treatments available, what the side effects are and how we can monitor our dogs and cats with arthritis to ensure they are as pain free as possible while at the same time minimizing side effects.

In this 3rd video in my arthritis series you will find out what drug is the best arthritis treatment for dogs and cats. Combined with the home care strategies discussed in my second video and you will be well on the way to ensuring your pet is as comfortable as possible.

There are many options out there and there can be no one-size-fits-all solution. Different drug treatments for arthritis will work differently in every individual. We also need to take into account any other illnesses the arthritis patient has. After all most arthritis dogs and cats are more elderly and the chance of a concurrent disease is reasonably high. Our arthritis treatment plan might be very different for an otherwise healthy senior compared to one also suffering from chronic renal disease or a liver condition. the best drugs to treat arthritis really will vary between individual.

NSAIDs are the most common choice and do an excellent job in most cases. Other options might include tramadol, gabapentin and even paracetamol (but never in cats).

Monitoring a dog or cats response to any home treatment changes or medications is also very important. Arthritis is a progressive disease and so what works now may not be enough in the future. Monitoring will ensure we make changes to our plan in good time rather than leaving our pets to suffer.

There is no cat or dog arthritis cure but we are able to treat this disease better than at any point in the past. You owe your pet as good a quality of life as possible.

Is Amantadine Used For Depression? - Pain Medicine Network Side Effects 0 Views • 2 months ago

Is Amantadine Used For Depression? In this informative video, we will discuss the medication amantadine and its potential role in treating depression. Amantadine has a history of use in both neurological and psychiatric conditions, originally developed as an antiviral for influenza. Over the years, it has been integrated into the management of Parkinson’s disease and to alleviate certain side effects of other treatments.

We'll explore how amantadine interacts with brain receptors and its effects on mood regulation and pain perception. While some studies suggest that amantadine may help improve symptoms of depression, particularly in treatment-resistant cases, it is important to note that its use is not widely recognized as a standard treatment option.

This video will also cover the current research surrounding amantadine's antidepressant effects and its applications in pain management. Understanding the complexities of medication options is essential for anyone considering treatment alternatives.

Amantadine blocks COVID-19? [research in multiple sclerosis, parkinsonism, dementia]
Amantadine blocks COVID-19? [research in multiple sclerosis, parkinsonism, dementia] Side Effects 1 Views • 2 months ago

Adamantanes such as amantadine and memantine are known to have antiviral properties. The tricyclo-bridged hydrocarbon structure interferes with viroporin protein channel responsible for release of RNA-viruses. In a human model cell line, expression of the CTSL gene coding for the cathepsin L, a lysosomal protease involved in SARS-CoV-2 entry to cells, is significantly downregulated by amantadine. Antiviral effects shown for amantadine and memantine in models for bovine coronavirus, mouse hepatitis virus, human coronavirus OC43, and SARS‐CoV led to the suggestion that adamantanes could be used for COVID-19

Amantadine: Mechanisms of action and potential therapeutic uses

Amantadine is an old medicine with many potential uses.
Originally developed in the 1960s to prevent flu, amantadine was later approved (in 1976) to treat symptoms of influenza, type A.

Amantadine is no longer recommended as a flu treatment, but during its use as a flu therapeutic, many patients with Parkinson’s disease reported significant improvement in their neurological symptoms.

Amantadine is currently an FDA-recognized treatment for Parkinson’s disease. It also has several off-label uses, most notably as a treatment for extrapyramidal side effects from antipsychotic medications. It has attracted attention as a potential treatment for antipsychotic-induced weight gain and as an adjunctive treatment for depression.

This lecture examines some of the numerous potential therapeutic uses for amantadine, explains its mechanisms of action and reviews potential risks.

This lecture was given at the July 7, 2020 meeting of the SZconsult learning community. Check out SZconsult.org for more information.

SZconsult is a free consultation + education service offered by Northeast Ohio Medical University. It’s open to any clinician who wants to learn more about schizophrenia-spectrum illness, or who wants to tap into the collective wisdom of the learning community to find answers to clinical problems.
