  Accurate diagnosis of the infecting organism is essential. Identification should be made either by direct microscopic examination of a mounting of infected tissue in a solution of potassium hydroxide, or by culture on an appropriate medium.

  Lotion: Apply a light covering of Micazole Lotion™ 1% (miconazole nitrate) to affected areas, once daily, for 2 to 4 weeks. Application is best accomplished using a gauze pad or cotton swab.

  Spray: Spray affected areas from a distance of 2 to 4 inches to apply a light covering, once daily for 2 to 4 weeks. Do not allow pet to contact finished wood surfaces until pet is thoroughly dried.

  Medication must be continued until the infecting organism is completely eradicated as indicated by appropriate clinical or laboratory examination. If no improvement is noticed within 2 weeks, diagnosis should be re-evaluated. Difficult cases may require treatment for 6 weeks. General measures in regard to hygiene should be observed to control sources of infection or reinfection. Clipping of hair around and over the sites of infection should be done at the start of treatment and again as necessary.

  Furoquid 1%

  

  ---

  The usual dose of Furosemide Syrup 1 % is 1 to 2 mg/lb body weight (approximately 2.5 to 5 mg/kg). Administer once or twice daily at 6- to 8-hour intervals orally. A prompt diuresis usually ensues from the initial treatment. Diuresis may be initiated by the parenteral administration of furosemide injection and then maintained by oral administration.

  The dosage should be adjusted to the individual's response. In severe edematous or refractory cases, the dose may be doubled or increased by increments of 1 mg/lb body weight. The established effective dose should be administered once or twice daily. The daily schedule of administration can be timed to control the period of micturition of the convenience of the client or veterinarian. Mobilization of the edema may be most efficiently and safely accomplished by utilizing an intermittent daily dosage schedule, i.e., every other day or 2 to 4 consecutive days weekly.

  Diuretic therapy should be discontinued after reduction of the edema, or maintained after determining a carefully programmed dosage schedule to prevent recurrence of edema. For long-term treatment, the dose can generally be lowered after the edema has once been reduced.

  Re-examination and consultations with client will enhance the establishment of a satisfactorily programmed dosage schedule. Clinical examination and serum BUN, CO2 and electrolyte determinations should be performed during the early period of therapy and periodically thereafter, especially in refractory cases. Abnormalities should be corrected or the drug temporarily withdrawn.

  DOSAGE

  ORAL:

  DOG-Syrup 1 %

  One (1) to two (2) mL (10 to 20 mg furosemide) per 10 lb body weight (approximately 2.5 to 5 mg/kg).

  Administered once or twice daily, permitting a 6- to 8-hour interval between treatments. In refractory or severe edematous cases, the dosage may be doubled or increased by increments of 1 mg/lb body weight as recommended in preceding paragraphs, "DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION."
