Full details

Libeo Flavour Tablets are designed for dog owners managing canine cardiac insufficiency, specifically targeting the reduction of ascites and edema. These tablets offer a palatable solution for veterinarians and pet owners to provide necessary diuretic support to improve a dog's quality of life, though they must only be administered under strict veterinary supervision to monitor electrolyte balance and kidney function.

FAQs

Can I crush the tablets to mix with food?

Yes, if your veterinarian approves, the tablets can be crushed, but ensure the dog consumes the entire portion of food to receive the full dose.

How long will my dog need to take Libeo?

Since it is used to manage chronic cardiac insufficiency, it is typically a long-term, life-long medication.

Does Libeo cure heart disease?

No, Libeo is a symptomatic treatment used to manage fluid accumulation; it does not cure the underlying heart condition.

What happens if I miss a dose?

Administer the missed dose as soon as you remember, unless it is close to the next scheduled dose. Do not double the dose.

Is it safe to give with other heart medications?

Libeo is commonly prescribed alongside other heart medications, but this must be directed by your veterinarian to prevent dangerous drug interactions.

Troubleshooting

Dog refuses to eat the tablet

Try hiding the tablet in a small piece of cheese or high-value treat, or consult your vet about alternative administration methods.

Dog seems excessively thirsty or lethargic

This may indicate dehydration or an electrolyte imbalance; stop administration and contact your veterinarian immediately.

Symptoms of ascites or edema are returning

Do not adjust the dose yourself; schedule a follow-up exam to determine if the heart condition has progressed.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Administration must strictly follow the dosage prescribed by your veterinarian based on the dog’s current weight. The tablets should be stored in a cool, dry place, away from reach of children and other pets. Always ensure your dog has constant access to fresh water while on this medication, as the diuretic effect increases urine production and the risk of dehydration. If you are administering other medications, such as ACE inhibitors or pimobendan, ensure your veterinarian has confirmed that there are no contraindications. Monitor your dog for excessive thirst or lethargy, and report any changes in behavior to your clinic immediately.
