There is also a medication called
Carafate (sucralfate) that's an aluminum compound.
Sucralfate (
Carafate) is sometimes used to protect the mucosa in the stomach and esophagus.
At the referring facility, the bird was treated with lactated Ringer's solution (30 mL/kg SC q12h), enrofloxacin (15 mg/kg in SC fluid pocket q12h; Baytril 2.27%, Bayer, Shawnee Mission, KS, USA), and metronidazole (25 mg/kg PO q12h; metronidazole 500 mg, compounded in Versa Free sugarless syrup vehicle, Humeo Texarkana, TX, USA, and Ora-Plus suspending vehicle, Perrigo, Minneapolis, MN, USA) because of concern for coelomitis while pending results of diagnostic tests; calcium gluconate (100 mg/kg in SC fluid pocket q12h) because of concern for reproductive disease; and sucralfate (25 mg/kg PO 1 hour after oral medications q12h;
Carafate, Aptalis Pharma US Inc., Bridgewater, NJ, USA) because of the presence of gastrointestinal signs.
Apple juice, orange juice, Gatorade, POWERADE, pure honey, pure maple syrup, and
Carafate were tested on cadaveric porcine esophagus, with the most promising in vitro options tested against a saline control in live piglets.
In such cases, honey or
Carafate (a cherry-flavoured duodenal ulcer prescription), can help reduce the esophageal damage, a new study by Kris Jatana of Nationwide Children's Hospital, Columbus, and colleagues has claimed.
Your dog might be treated with gastrointestinal protectants such as sucralfate (
Carafate), an anti-ulcer medication; with anti-emetic or anti-vomiting medications such as metoclopramide (Reglan or maxolon), H2 (histamine-2) receptor antagonists such as famotidine (Pepcid) or ranitidine (Zantac), which are used to reduce stomach acid; or proton pump inhibitors such as omeprazolie (Prilosec or Losec), which are used in cases of severe stomach ulceration.
The key Aptalis products include CANASA,
CARAFATE, PYLERA, RECTIV and ZENPEP.
include Canasa,
Carafate, and Zenpep, which accounted for more than 60% of sales.
TABLE 5 Management of Adverse Events Associated With mTOR Inhibitors Stomatitis Management Strategies Comments
Carafate 0.1 g/mL 5 to 10 mL, 3/ Sucralfate acts like a (sucralfate) 4 times/day.
It is interesting to note that the antiulcer drug sucralfate (sucrose aluminum sulfate or
Carafate) appears to act by protecting endogenous mucosal bFGF from degradation by acid.
In this case, we identified patients with gastrointestinal comorbidities as those who have ever had a prescription for ranitidine (e.g., Zantac), famotidine (e.g., Pepcid), cimetidine (e.g., Tagamet), omeprazole (e.g., Prilosec), esomeprazole (e.g., Nexium), lansoprazole (e.g., Previcid), rabeprazole (e.g., Aciphex), pantoprazole (e.g., Protonix), sulcralfate (e.g.,
Carafate), misoprostol (e.g., Cytotec), and Helidac, Prevpac, or metoclopromide (e.g., Reglan).
