Description
Clenbuterol (4-amino-alpha-[(tert-butylamino) methyl]-3, 5-dichlorobenzyl alcohol hydrochloride) is a beta-2-adrenergic agonist which provides bronchodilating properties as well as other effects, with minimum effect on the cardiovascular system. It is provided as a colorless, palatable syrup. Aeropulmin Syrup (clenbuterol hydrochloride) is antagonized by beta-adrenergic blocking agents.
Aeropulmin Syrup Indications
Aeropulmin Syrup (clenbuterol hydrochloride) is indicated for the management of horses affected with airway obstruction, such as occurs in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
Contraindications
Aeropulmin Syrup antagonizes the effects of prostaglandin F2alpha and oxytocin. Aeropulmin Syrup should not be used in pregnant mares near term. Because tachycardia may occur, Aeropulmin Syrup should not be used in horses suspected of having cardiovascular impairment.
Warning
The effect on reproduction in breeding stallions and brood mares has not been determined. Treatment starting with dosages higher than the initial dose is not recommended.HUMAN WARNINGS: Do not use in horses intended for human consumption. Keep out of the reach of children. In case of accidental ingestion, contact a physician immediately. Ingestion of Aeropulmin Syrup may cause undesirable reactions. Clenbuterol, like other beta adrenergic agonists, can produce significant cardiovascular effects in some people as evidenced by elevated pulse rate, blood pressure changes and/or ECG changes.
Dosage and Administration
Administer orally twice a day (b.i.d.). Initial dose is 0.5 mL/100 lbs body weight (0.8 mcg/kg) twice daily.DOSAGE SCHEDULE:
Initial dosage: administer 0.5 mL/100 lbs (0.8 mcg/kg) for 3 days (6 treatments);
If no improvement, administer 1.0 mL/100 lbs (1.6 mcg/kg) for 3 days (6 treatments);
If no improvement, administer 1.5 mL/100 lbs (2.4 mcg/kg) for 3 days (6 treatments);
If no improvement, administer 2.0 mL/100 lbs (3.2 mcg/kg) for 3 days (6 treatments);
If no improvement, horse is non-responder to clenbuterol and treatment should be discontinued.
