PRESCRIPTION COMPOUNDING FOR MOTILITY DISORDERS

Gastric motility disorders are seen in both dogs and cats.  Gastric motility disorders are abnormalities that result from conditions that disrupt normal emptying of the stomach resulting in distention and subsequent abnormal function of the stomach.

The pharmacists at Bayview Pharmacy have the ability to compound certain medications for your pets.  These medications will be custom dosed based on your pet's weight and symptoms, and may come in the following forms: flavored treats, flavored suspensions, flavored capsules, transdermal gels, and injection solutions to name a few.

A veterinarian might prescribe cisapride for your pet if he is suffering from any of the following conditions:

Canine Gastroduodenal Motility

Feline Esophogeal Motility Dysfunction

Feline Megacolon
