In the late stage of canine distemper, symptomatic treatment is mainly carried out according to the condition. Dogs with difficulty breathing should use atomization treatment to remove respiratory tract leakage. If you have vomiting or diarrhea, you must fast and drink nothing, and give the dog an infusion to prevent dehydration. As the condition worsens, neurological symptoms such as convulsions may occur. Only drugs can be used to reduce the dog's pain.
Canine distemper late stage treatment method
If the dog has gastrointestinal symptoms such as vomiting and diarrhea, it is no longer necessary to feed the dog water at this time. To avoid increasing the burden on the gastrointestinal tract, the dog must be given infusions to prevent excessive loss of water in the body, and drugs must be used to stop diarrhea and vomiting.
In the later stages of canine distemper, dogs will have difficulty breathing. There will be inflammation in the respiratory tracts such as the trachea and lungs. The dog needs to be atomized to prevent it from hindering. The amount of fluid infusion should also be reduced to prevent the occurrence of pulmonary edema. If bacterial infection occurs, antibiotics should be used appropriately according to the condition of the disease.
Dogs in the late stage of canine distemper cannot walk normally. If neurological symptoms such as foaming at the mouth and twitching of hands and feet appear, it means that the condition is very serious. Drugs such as acepromazine and stabilization can be used to control convulsions. Immunoglobulin and monoclonal antibodies have a certain suppressive effect on canine distemper virus, but the possibility of cure is very small.
