Ovariovit for dogs

Ovariovit is a homeopathic remedy used to treat hormonal imbalances in dogs. It is used exclusively for female dogs and helps restore their reproductive function, prevent the side effects of spaying, and treat reproductive disorders. Ovariovit is considered safe for dogs.

Composition and release form

Ovariovit is a preparation based on herbal tinctures, minerals, and organic components. The active ingredients in this combined homeopathic remedy are:

• Calcium carbonicum. Calcium carbonate relieves inflammation of the genital mucosa and regulates calcium metabolism in the body.
• Diamana (Diamana). Improves blood circulation in the genitals of dogs, regulates the sexual cycle, and restores reproductive function in animals.
• Pulsatilla (Meadow Pasque Flower) relieves inflammation of the genitals and stimulates the pituitary gland to produce hormones.
• Aurum iodatum (gold iodide). Widely used in homeopathy for uterine and ovarian conditions. It helps reduce uterine tone, prevent or relieve inflammation, and eliminate cysts.
• Sepia (Sepia). A substance derived from cuttlefish ink not only effectively reduces inflammation but also helps overcome infertility caused by poor ovarian function.
• Aristolohia (Aristolochia). Helps normalize hormonal imbalances and is often used for stillbirths and other reproductive system problems in dogs.

Ovariovit is available as a sterile injection solution. It is a clear, colorless, and odorless liquid used for injection. It is packaged in glass vials of 10 or 100 ml. The vials are sealed with rubber stoppers and sealed with aluminum caps.

The product should be stored at a temperature above zero, but not exceeding 25°C. Avoid exposure to ultraviolet light. Store away from feed and other food products, and out of the reach of children and animals. The expiration date is 3 years; do not use the solution after this period. After puncturing the rubber cap, the solution can be used within 21 days.

Pharmacological properties

The drug has a complex effect on the body and has the following effects:

• eliminates hormonal imbalances by stimulating the production of estrogen;
• relieves inflammatory processes in the genital organs;
• restores ovarian function;
• regulates the sexual cycle;
• initiates the process of growth and follicle development;
• has a positive effect on the pituitary gland and hypothalamus (stimulates their work);
• eliminates mental disorders caused by hormonal imbalances;
• increases fertility.

According to GOST, it is classified as a low-hazard substance. Unlike many medications, it does not cause local irritation, does not accumulate in the body, and does not affect the functioning of internal organs or systems.

This product helps relieve hormonal imbalances, but it does not contain hormones and does not have a harmful effect on the animal's body.

Indications for use

According to the veterinary instructions, Ovariovit is used for dogs to treat various reproductive system conditions, reproductive disorders, and hormonal imbalances. It is prescribed for the following problems and conditions in female dogs:

• at false pregnancy;
• in case of menstrual cycle disorders;
• at endometritis;
• with ovarian cysts;
• at pyometritis;
• in case of excessive excitement;
• if unpleasant consequences of hormonal therapy occur;
• to prevent embryonic mortality.

The drug is also used for infertility if the cause is ovarian dysfunction. Normalizing hormonal levels and eliminating existing imbalances helps restore reproductive function.

Use after sterilization

Ovariohysterectomy (OH) surgery in dogs involves surgically removing the uterus and ovaries. Spaying may be performed if the owner does not wish to have offspring or for clinical reasons, such as the presence of a tumor. This procedure offers many advantages, including increased lifespan due to the reduced risk of developing life-threatening reproductive diseases.

Side effects such as obesity and dermatitis may occur after surgery. These are caused by hormonal changes. Ovariovit, used for dogs after sterilization, helps prevent these side effects.

Instructions for use

The solution is administered intramuscularly or subcutaneously. To calculate a single dose, consider that 0.1 ml of the solution is required per kilogram of body weight, but the maximum dose should not exceed 4 ml.

Depending on the nature and severity of the problem, injections are given from 1-2 times a day to 2-3 times a week, and treatment can last from 4 days to 3 months, determined by a doctor after an examination. When using the medication, strictly follow the instructions for use.

Features of use in diseases of the reproductive system

Depending on the disease and the nature of the problem, the drug is used according to the following scheme:

1. If false pregnancy occurs, injections are initially given daily (once a day) for 4-6 days, then every other day (3-4 injections). The course of treatment can be extended to 3 weeks.
2. To prevent false pregnancy after the end of estrus, injections are given every 3-4 days for 4-6 weeks.
3. If the drug is used for recovery after hormone therapy, injections are given 2-3 times a week. The course lasts 4 to 6 weeks.
4. To increase a bitch's chances of becoming pregnant during mating, 2-4 injections will be required, starting on the first day of her heat cycle. A 2-3 day interval is required between injections.
5. If there is no estrus or the sexual cycle is disrupted, injections should be given 1-2 times a week for 4-5 weeks.
6. If the product is used to prevent embryo mortality, injections should be given on the 5th and 10th day after mating.
7. To protect the female from side effects of sterilization, an injection is given every three days for one month after the operation.
8. For chronic endometritis, Ovariovit is used in combination with MastometrinInjections of the homeopathic remedy are given 2-3 times a week for 3 weeks.

It is not recommended to skip doses of the medication, as this may reduce its effectiveness. If an injection is missed on time, treatment should be resumed and the previously used regimen should be resumed as soon as possible. Ovariovit can be used with other medications.

Although the drug is considered safe because it contains natural ingredients, you should consult a veterinarian before use. Do not self-medicate.

Price

• 10 ml – 300-350 rub.;
• 100 ml – 900-1300 rubles.

Owner reviews

Anastasia, the dachshund's owner:

"Our female dog experiences a false pregnancy almost every time she goes into heat. It's a terrible condition. This condition is accompanied by severe uterine inflammation and even a fever. The vet recommended Ovariovit injections to address the problem. After just a few injections, the dog felt better, and after the full course, the unpleasant symptoms disappeared. We now regularly use this medication to prevent false pregnancies, and I can confidently say it works."

Galina, owner of a German Shepherd:

"Our dog suddenly started building a nest and grooming her toys. She became quite aggressive and wouldn't let anyone near her. Since we have children in the house, we decided to address the problem immediately. The doctor diagnosed a false pregnancy and prescribed Ovariovit with Mastometrin. We were pleased with the results. We were able to retrieve the toys and nest on the third day, and the dog calmed down."

Veterinarian Reviews

Olga, a veterinarian with 12 years of experience:

"Ovariovit is a good homeopathic remedy, but it's primarily intended for the prevention of reproductive system diseases. I don't recommend using homeopathy for acute inflammation, as it can only worsen the problem. Never self-medicate; even homeopathic remedies can be harmful to your pet."

Victor, veterinarian:

"I don't believe in homeopathic remedies, and therefore never prescribe them to my patients. Some of my colleagues use Ovariovit to treat false pregnancies in female dogs and give positive reviews, but I still don't trust such products and don't recommend them for treatment. Laboratory experiments have not confirmed the effectiveness of the product, and if a false pregnancy occurs, I recommend surgery to my clients."
