Humans have many remedies available to help us with pain and rigidity and now cats are also obtaining more options. When joining cold laser therapy, acupuncture, traditional supplements and medications, cats can now add solensia to their treatment options. Approved by the FDA in 2022 specifically for the treatment of osteoarthritis in cats (the first one so far), the active ingredient in this injection once a month is Frunevetmab, which is a laboratory that makes a protein that blocks certain signs of pain to a cat of a cat when the cartilage breaks Pain Arthitis. The cats mentioned above and several others in BCR are already benefiting from solensia treatments.
This is a new medication and may not be appropriate for each cat, so if it has a cat that suffers from arthritis, you should consult with its veterinarian. He or she will determine if it is suitable for your cat, the dose size, which is based on the weight of a cat, and will administer solensia in a subcutaneous injection, which should continue every four weeks at a time to maximize its effectiveness. Injections cannot be done safely at home.
You and your veterinarian will also observe any side effect, which may include vomiting, diarrhea, pain in the injection of the site and itching or appointment skin.
