Assessed clinical scopeDog · Labelled oral treatment of eligible canine preclinical MMVD/DCM and congestive heart failure due to MMVD, valvular insufficiency or DCM after cardiac diagnosis and staging · By mouth
Care settingLong-term veterinary-directed outpatient cardiac care with diagnostic confirmation and monitoring
vetman score 8.6/10 Very good
Evidence confidence: High Georgia: Yes, veterinary · № 170-11 · Verified on 21 Oct 2026

A strongly evidence-supported standard therapy for appropriately diagnosed and staged canine cardiac disease; presentation choice should match body weight and monitoring needs.

Regulatory and scientific credibility9.0/10

This exact strength has current European product information and active Georgian veterinary registration; the same branded chewable platform also has current FDA labelling and strong independent consensus support.

Clinical efficacy9.0/10

Pimobendan has strong guideline and regulatory support for correctly staged canine MMVD and DCM, including eligible preclinical disease and congestive failure; benefit depends on accurate diagnosis and stage.

Safety and tolerability8.0/10

The benefit-risk profile is well characterised, but outflow obstruction, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, severe hepatic impairment and inappropriate early MMVD stages are hard stops, with additional monitoring in diabetes and reproduction.

Clinical practicality8.5/10

Twice-daily pre-feed administration is a lasting burden, but the palatable half-tablet presentation permits accurate dosing in small dogs.

Important safety and use flags

  • Do not use in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, fixed outflow obstruction, aortic stenosis or other disease in which increasing cardiac output is inappropriate.
  • Do not use in severe hepatic impairment; do not treat stage A or B1 MMVD as though it were eligible B2 disease.
  • Beta-blockers and calcium-channel blockers can attenuate the positive inotropic effect; monitor clinical response.
  • Use in diabetes, pregnancy or lactation only with appropriate monitoring and individual benefit-risk assessment.

Vetmedin

0.75 mg/ml, solution for injection for dogs
Assessed clinical scopeDog · Single-dose IV initiation of treatment for canine CHF caused by valvular insufficiency or dilated cardiomyopathy · Intravenous
Care settingHospital treatment of acute/decompensated canine CHF with diagnosis, oxygen/diuresis and haemodynamic, respiratory and renal monitoring as indicated
vetman score 7.5/10 Good
Evidence confidence: Medium Georgia: No · Verified on 22 Oct 2026

A well-defined authorised rapid IV bridge for selected dogs with confirmed CHF. Its value is strongest in monitored hospital care, while the limited direct sick-dog outcome evidence and strict single-dose/oral-transition boundary prevent a higher score.

Regulatory and scientific credibility9.0/10

Exact current GB and European authorisations identify Vetmedin, Boehringer Ingelheim, 0.75 mg/ml, dog-only IV use, single-use packs and a transparent bioequivalent dossier.

Clinical efficacy6.5/10

The exact label, acute-CHF consensus and controlled IV studies support rapid favourable haemodynamics, but published injection studies are small, mainly in healthy anaesthetised dogs and lack direct acute-CHF patient outcome endpoints.

Safety and tolerability7.0/10

One-dose monitored use and rare labelled adverse events are favourable, but decompensated dogs have limited reserve; tachycardia, gastrointestinal signs, fixed outflow obstruction and whole-protocol haemodynamic/renal effects remain material.

Clinical practicality7.5/10

A precise 0.2 ml/kg one-time IV dose and no special storage fit emergency hospital care. Venous access is appropriate to the setting; immediate vial disposal, no mixing and the 12-hour oral hand-off add manageable burden and waste.

Full-course cost-effectiveness-

The catalogue does not resolve the 5 ml versus 10 ml single-use vial and current exact Georgian price/availability is not verified; cost is excluded.

Important safety and use flags

  • Use only to initiate treatment of diagnosed canine CHF caused by mitral/tricuspid valvular insufficiency or dilated cardiomyopathy. It is not a routine injection for preclinical B2 disease or every low-output state.
  • ONE IV DOSE ONLY: 0.15 mg/kg equals 0.2 ml/kg of this 0.75 mg/ml product. Determine body weight accurately and do not create a repeating IV schedule.
  • IV is the only authorised route. Do not transfer experimental IM or SC administration; the controlled SC group did not show the same rapid haemodynamic response.
  • Oral Vetmedin may start 12 hours after injection. Plan the hand-off explicitly and avoid accidental overlap or a gap caused by treating the injection as complete long-term therapy.
  • Confirm CHF and morphology, then monitor respiratory effort/oxygenation, heart rate/rhythm, blood pressure, perfusion, congestion, renal function and electrolytes. Pimobendan does not replace oxygen, diuresis or other indicated acute-CHF care.
  • Do not use in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, aortic stenosis or another functional/anatomical condition where cardiac output cannot increase, or in hypersensitivity.
  • Rare labelled effects include transient vomiting, diarrhoea, anorexia, lethargy and increased heart rate. Reassess an acutely decompensated dog promptly because its physiological reserve may be limited.
  • Verapamil and propranolol can attenuate the inotropic response. Review the full cardiovascular protocol and trend clinical response rather than assuming the injection will override beta- or calcium-channel blockade.
  • Pimobendan is excreted into milk and high maternotoxic doses produced embryotoxicity in laboratory studies. Use in pregnant or lactating bitches only after an individual benefit-risk assessment.
  • The preservative-free 5 ml and 10 ml vials are SINGLE USE: use immediately and discard all remainder. Do not mix with another veterinary medicine because compatibility studies are absent.

    Do not use pimobendan in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, fixed ventricular outflow obstruction, aortic stenosis, or other disease in which cardiac output cannot increase for functional or anatomical reasons. Do not use it in dogs with stage A or B1 preclinical myxomatous mitral valve disease.
    Sources: Vetmedin SPC
  • Caution
    Safety of pimobendan in diabetic dogs has not been established. If treatment is necessary, monitor blood glucose regularly.
    Sources: Vetmedin SPC
  • Caution
    Safety of pimobendan during pregnancy and lactation has not been established. High doses caused maternal and embryonic toxicity in laboratory studies; use only after an individual veterinary benefit-risk assessment.
