Galastop:  Dosage and administration
 
 
Galastop
Dosage and administration
Galastop® should be administered orally either directly into the mouth or by mixing with food.
The dosage is 0.1 ml/kg bodyweight (equivalent to 5 μg/kg body weight of cabergoline) once daily for 4-6 consecutive days, depending on the severity of the clinical condition.
For dogs less that 5 kg bodyweight it is advisable to measure the dosage in drops, 3 drops being equivalent to 0.1 ml.
If the signs fail to resolve after a single course of treatment, or if they recur after the end of treatment, then the course of treatment may be repeated.
For treatment of false pregnancy, clinical studies have demonstrated efficacy between 80-100%. Behavioural signs are alleviated first, followed by reduction in mammary gland enlargement, then finally suppression of lactation.
