What is methimazole transdermal gel used for in cats?

Methimazole transdermal gel is commonly prescribed to help manage hyperthyroidism in cats by reducing the production of thyroid hormones.

How do I apply the methimazole gel to my cat?

Apply the measured dose to the inner ear pinna skin as directed by your veterinarian. Wear gloves, spread the gel on clean, hairless skin, and allow it to dry. Alternate ears if your veterinarian instructs you to do so.

How long will my cat need methimazole therapy?

Hyperthyroidism often requires long-term management. Your veterinarian will determine the treatment duration and adjust dosing based on periodic examinations and lab monitoring.

What side effects should I watch for?

Possible side effects can include decreased appetite, vomiting, lethargy, facial itching, and mild skin irritation at the application site. Less commonly, changes in liver enzymes or blood cell counts may occur. Contact your veterinarian if you notice any concerning signs.

Can I switch from tablets to the transdermal gel on my own?

No. Any switch between formulations or dose adjustments should only be made under veterinary guidance to ensure proper monitoring and dosing.

How should I store the compounded gel and how long does it last?

Store as directed on the label and avoid excessive heat or moisture. Use before the beyond-use date provided on the packaging.
