GS DOSAGE CALCULATOR

Wet Form FIP (Abdominal Effusion):

Symptoms: Increased fluid in the abdomen area (causes a pot-bellied appearance).

Dosage: (5 mg/kg)

 

Wet Form FIP (Thoracic Effusion):

Symptoms: Fluids in chest (hard for the cat to breathe).

Dosage: (6 mg/kg)

Dry Form FIP (non-effusive):

Symptoms: Excessive thirst and urination, vomiting, weight loss, jaundice and/or organ inflammation.

Dosage: (6 mg/kg)

 

FIP Ocular symptoms:

Symptoms: Swelling in the eyes or any damage or abnormal change in the eye tissue.

Dosage: (8 mg/kg)

 

FIP Neurologic symptoms:

Symptoms: Nervous tissue damage: Seizures or blindness, movement in an abnormal or uncoordinated way.

Dosage: (10 mg/kg)

 

  • If wet or dry FIP cats develop ocular or neurological symptoms, their dosage should be adjusted accordingly.

  • To account for weight gain, adjust the GS dose on a weekly basis.

  • Many cats can gain a lot of weight, either because they were underweight to begin with or because their growth was disrupted by FIP. A cat's weight that doesn't increase or return to normal during treatment is considered a bad sign.

  • If the dose needs to be raised, add +2 to +5 mg/kg to the standard recommended dose for 4 weeks. Failure to see improvement after increasing the dosage suggests that the current level is still insufficient or that drug resistance is taking place.
