Methimazole 50 mg/mL Compounded Transdermal Gel - 1 mL

Methimazole 50 mg/mL Compounded Transdermal Gel is prepared to order to support the exact dosing your veterinarian prescribes for your cat. Methimazole is an antithyroid thioamide commonly prescribed to help manage feline hyperthyroidism by reducing the production of thyroid hormones. The transdermal gel format allows vet-directed dosing applied to a hairless skin site (often the inner ear), which can be helpful for cats that resist oral tablets. Each 1 mL unit is compounded at 50 mg/mL to facilitate precise, veterinarian-guided therapy for cats with overactive thyroid.

What is methimazole transdermal gel used for in cats?

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

Why choose a transdermal gel instead of methimazole tablets?

The transdermal gel is applied to a hairless skin site (often the inner ear) and can be easier for cats that resist oral medications, while still allowing precise, veterinarian-directed dosing.

How do I apply the gel safely?

Apply the measured amount to the site your veterinarian recommends, typically the inner ear pinna. Wear gloves or finger cots, avoid contact with eyes or mouth, let the area dry, and wash hands after application.

What side effects should I watch for?

Some cats may experience decreased appetite, vomiting, lethargy, facial itchiness, or local skin irritation at the application site. Contact your veterinarian if you notice concerning signs; bloodwork monitoring is often recommended.

Can my cat take methimazole long-term?

Many cats are managed long-term with methimazole under veterinary supervision, with periodic checkups and lab monitoring to ensure the dose remains appropriate.

What should I do if I miss a dose?

Give the missed dose when you remember unless it is close to the next scheduled dose. Do not double up; contact your veterinarian if you are unsure.
