Canine Distemper Virus (CDV)
We recommend RetroMAD1 for dogs that have been diagnosed with CDV. The disease progresses rapidly and treatment should be instituted as early as possible, else it would not be effective once the virus penetrates the central nervous system.
RetroMAD1 can be administered as follows:
1) By sub-cutaneous injection
Dose: 0.50ml per kg. Do NOT give intramuscular or intravenous injection.
Daily: 2 times a day. There is no meal time restriction.
If symptoms are severe, dosage can initially be higher at 3 times a day until symptoms subside in about 3 – 5 days.
2) Duration: 15 days.
