This product was recommended to me by my veterinarian for my horses itching allergies. It stops the itch and my horse is comfortable. I use the smallest dose recommended as prescribed. Very good and the price is too!

This product is for my asthmatic horse. I use a nebulizer and give her a maintenance dose of only one ml to one ml physiological saline and this has really helped keep her asthmatic flare ups few and far between.

My mare has subcutaneous lymphoma and this has helped greatly to reduce her lumps and bumps as well as calm down those that are threatening to ulcerate. This is a crucial part of keeping her alive.

I have a feral cat that has extreme allergies to everything. I am able to feed him .2ml dex in tuna am and pm (per vet's advice) which controls his allergies. Prior to this he scratched his ears and face to the point of bleeding and taking all of his hair off.

My cat has had moderate to severe asthma/ chronic bronchitis for most of her adult life.. She is a senior, about 13 years old now, active otherwise. No nasal discharge, but symptoms include sneezing, coughing, and asthma attacks lasting anywhere from 30 seconds to 1 minute or more DAILY. Previously she had been on Prednisone for this condition, tablets then liquid, but it didn't seem to be enough relief, and administering the medication was becoming difficult on her and me. The doctor suggested Dexamethasone injections twice weekly to relieve the inflammation in her lungs, eventually weening to once a week. After the first dose, Chloe felt immediate relief. She no longer has daily attacks, and with the weekly treatments, she has had very few, very minor episodes of any respiratory distress, about once weekly, lasting 10-15 seconds or less. Administering an injection to my own cat was an adjustment, but she has never felt the needle or displayed any signs of discomfort. This medication has improved her quality of life, and given her many more comfortable years to breathe easier.
