Product Overview
Maropitant Citrate tablets are a prescription medication indicated for the prevention of acute vomiting and the prevention of vomiting due to motion sickness in dogs.
For Dogs ages 16 weeks and up.
Helps prevent vomiting in dogs. Easy to administer tablets. Non-sedative.
Maropitant is a neurokinin 1 (NK1) receptor antagonist which acts by inhibiting the binding of substance P, a neuropeptide of the tachykinin family. Substance P is found in significant concentrations in the nuclei comprising the emetic center and is considered the key neurotransmitter involved in emesis.1 By inhibiting the binding of substance P within the emetic center, maropitant provides broad-spectrum effectiveness against neural (central) and humoral (peripheral) causes of vomiting.
The following adverse events reported for dogs are listed in decreasing order of frequency: anorexia, depression/lethargy, hypersalivation, vomiting, diarrhea, trembling, ataxia, allergic reactions, weight loss, convulsion, hyperactivity, and panting.

WARNINGS:
Not for use in humans. Keep out of the reach of children. In case of accidental ingestion, seek medical advice. Topical exposure may elicit localized allergic skin reactions in some individuals. Repeated or prolonged exposure may lead to skin sensitization. Wash hands with soap and water after administering drug. Maropitant Citrate is also an ocular irritant. In case of accidental eye exposure, flush with water for 15 minutes and seek medical attention.
Keep Maropitant Citrate Tablets in a secure location out of reach of dogs, cats, and other animals to prevent accidental ingestion or overdose.
In puppies younger than 11 weeks of age, histological evidence of bone marrow hypocellularity was observed at higher frequency and greater severity in puppies treated with Maropitant Citrate compared to control puppies. In puppies 16 weeks and older, bone marrow hypocellularity was not observed (see ANIMAL SAFETY).
PRECAUTIONS:
The safe use of Maropitant Citrate tablets has not been evaluated in dogs used for breeding, or in pregnant or lactating bitches.
The safe use of Maropitant Citrate has not been evaluated in dogs with gastrointestinal obstruction, or dogs that have ingested toxins.
Use with caution in dogs with hepatic dysfunction because Maropitant Citrate is metabolized by CYP3A enzymes (see Pharmacokinetics).Use with caution with other medications that are highly protein bound. The concomitant use of Maropitant Citrate with other protein bound drugs has not been studied in dogs. Commonly used protein bound drugs include NSAIDs, cardiac, anticonvulsant, and behavioral medications.
Sold as 4 tablets in a blister pack in the following strengths: 16 mg, 24 mg, 60 mg, or 160 mg.
Zyvet Animal Health
Use as directed by your Veterinarian.
DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION:
For Prevention of Acute Vomiting in dogs 2 -7 months of age: Administer Maropitant Citrate tablets orally at a minimum dose of
2 mg/kg (0.9 mg/lb) body weight once daily for up to 5 consecutive days (see WARNINGS and Animal Safety).
For Prevention of Acute Vomiting in dogs 7 months of age and older: Administer Maropitant Citrate tablets orally at a minimum dose of 2 mg/kg (0.9 mg/lb) body weight once daily until resolution of acute vomiting.
If vomiting persists despite treatment, the case should be re-evaluated. Maropitant Citrate is most effective in preventing acute vomiting associated with chemotherapy if administered prior to the chemotherapeutic agent.
Active Ingredient: Maropitant Citrate

Using "off label" as per Vet's instructions
My little Rat Terrier is suffering with a collapsing trachea. He gets 1 tablet every 24 hours per doctor's orders. Teddy the Rattie seems to be responding well. Allivet has a very fair price for this long term drug.

Prescription for Eddie
Eddie has a collapsing trachea which this medication works well with. But always check with your vet as we did for Eddie.

Good
Stopped my cats sneezing and sniffles within 2 days. Nothing else worked. I’ve also used it for vomiting in my cats and this was also effective.

FINALLY AN AFFORDABLE PRICE
SO GLAD I SWITCHED TO THIS GENERIC VERSION, MY BOY HAS BEEN ON THIS FOR YEARS AND IT SOLVES HIS DIGESTIVE ISSUES COMPLETELY! ALLIVET HAS A FEW ISSSUES THEY NEED TO CORRECT WITHIN THEIR AUTOSHIP PROCESS AND BILLING PROCESS, BUT THEY ARE A GOOD SUPPLIER.

Excellent generic version at a fraction of the brand name's price
Very pleased to find a Maropitant Citrate tablet that works just as well as the expensive brand name version. Price was great, and shipping was prompt.

The price!
Cerenia is great but expensive. This generic alternative works just as well at a much better price. Very pleased.

These are a miracle worker on my dog during car rides longer than 30 mins. Before he was prescribed these, he would vomit and salivate.

My dog has inflammatory bowel disease and barely tolerates the standard med, consequently we have to alternate with another obnoxious med which causes nausea and vomiting which are the symptoms we’re trying to treat. Maropitant alleviates these symptoms long enough to get her chlorambucil to stay down, ie the rest of the day. The $ is crazy but this is my child.

My Cat Midnite is 16 yo with a very sensitive stomach. This is the only medication that stops him from violent vomiting almost every day. I started with 8mg every day for a week, then 8mg every other day all the time. Now he has a minor vomit maybe once or twice a month.

Both of my dogs take this. One of my dog takes this for periodic nausea events and it really helps her through that. The other dog takes this for coughing for dilated cardiomyopathy and it really helps with the coughing. He takes a lower dose than he would for nausea and vomiting. It is saved our lives. When my female dog gets these phases where she gets nauseated about every 2 months, it saves us from going to the emergency vet. I keep this on hand for emergencies and also for my dog that has the heart condition.

My dog was diagnosed with megaesophagus and needs help to keep foods down. This anti naseau generic version of cerenia has kept his regurgitation under control with a dose of half a tablet every other day.
