Ventipulmin Syrup

Clenbuterol HCl

Ventipulmin Syrup (clenbuterol hydrochloride) is indicated for the management of horses affected with airway obstruction, such as occurs in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

Clenbuterol is a beta-2-adrenergic agonist which provides bronchodilating properties as well as other effects, with minimum effect on the cardiovascular system. It is provided as a colorless, palatable syrup. Ventipulmin Syrup (clenbuterol hydrochloride) is antagonized by beta-adrenergic blocking agents.

For use in horses not intended for food.

Each ml contains: Clenbuterol HCl 72.5 mcg.

Contraindications: Ventipulmin Syrup antagonizes the effects of prostaglandin F2 alpha and oxytocin. Ventipulmin Syrup should not be used in pregnant mares near term. Because tachycardia may occur, Ventipulmin Syrup should not be used in horses suspected of having cardiovascular impairment.

Warning: The effect on reproduction in breeding stallions and brood mares has not been determined. Treatment starting with dosages higher than the initial dose is not recommended.

Human Warnings: This product is not for human use or for use in animals intended for food. Keep out of the reach of children. In case of accidental ingestion, contact a physician immediately. Ingestion of Ventipulmin Syrup may cause undesirable reactions. Clenbuterol, like other beta adrenergic agonists, can produce significant cardiovascular effects in some people as evidenced by elevated pulse rate, blood pressure changes and/or ECG changes.

Dosage and Administration:
Administer orally twice a day (b.i.d.). Initial dose is 0.5 mL/100 lbs body weight (0.8 mcg/kg) twice daily.

Dosage Schedule:

Initial dosage: administer 0.5 mL/100 lbs (0.8 mcg/kg) for 3 days (6 treatments);

If no improvement, administer 1.0 mL/100 lbs (1.6 mcg/kg) for 3 days (6 treatments);

If no improvement, administer 1.5 mL/100 lbs (2.4 mcg/kg) for 3 days (6 treatments);

If no improvement, administer 2.0 mL/100 lbs (3.2 mcg/kg) for 3 days (6 treatments);

If no improvement, horse is non-responder to clenbuterol and treatment should be discontinued.

Recommended duration of treatment at effective dose is 30 days. At the end of this 30-day treatment period, drug should be withdrawn to determine recurrence of signs. If signs return, the 30-day treatment regimen may be repeated. If repeating treatment, the step-wise dosage schedule should be repeated.
