Intravenous Therapy Guidelines for Effusive (Wet) FIP

Intravenous therapy is generally not recommended for cats with effusive (Wet) FIP if they are still eating and drinking normally. This is because intravenous fluids can increase fluid accumulation in the body and place additional strain on the heart. However, if your cat stops eating and cannot be force-fed, intravenous therapy might become necessary to maintain nourishment. In such cases, the fluid delivery rate should be slow, not exceeding 15 drops per minute. It is also advisable for the cat's owner to be present to provide comfort and monitor the cat during the intravenous therapy.

If your cat is no longer feeding on its own or has become physically inactive, begin GS-441524 treatment immediately.
