Luckily, veterinarians have an arsenal of medications available to treat dermatology conditions in their patients, including Apoquel (oclacitinib) for immediate itch relief during allergy flares, Cytopoint (lokivetmab) for dogs with difficulty taking pills or when needing longer-lasting itch control, and cyclosporine for more severe cases that require a stronger immunosuppressive response. In this VetFolio Voice podcast episode, Dr. Cassi and Dr. Watson explore the use of these drugs in managing dermatology cases. You'll learn when cyclosporine is most likely to be helpful and how to dose it — in particular, starting with a low dose and adjusting the dose up, giving with food to reduce GI upset, and giving with ketoconazole to help lower the dose of cyclosporine needed. You’ll also get insights into potential side effects and how to address them. Dr. Cassi and Dr. Watson take a look at the role of diet, allergy testing and immunotherapy in managing these cases, as well as emphasize the importance of referral in veterinary dermatology and the importance of early referral for successful management of these cases. e sure to log into VetFolio and take the quiz to qualify for your CE credit! https://www.vetfolio.com/courses/stop-snoring-on-cyclosporine-podcast-quiz
