Treatment of Canine Idiopathic Epilepsy - Clinical Picture after Drug Interaction
Acta Scientiae Veterinariae, 2022 Background: The large number of diseases demand perennial development of the pharmaceutical industry. The drug-testing phase is essential to make them available safely. Awareness of pharmacological properties, adverse effects and drug interactions is required. Drug interactions are common in veterinary medicine and should be avoided.

Metabolic perturbations associated with the consumption of a ketogenic medium-chain TAG diet in dogs with idiopathic epilepsy [PDF]
, 2018 Consumption of diets containing medium-chain TAG (MCT) has been shown to confer neuroprotective effects. We aim to identify the global metabolic perturbations associated with consumption of a ketogenic diet (medium-chain TAG diet (MCTD)) in dogs with ...

The gut-brain axis: effect of antibiotics on canine drug-resistant idiopathic epilepsy
Vlaams Diergeneeskundig Tijdschrift, 2022 Approximately thirty percent of the dogs with idiopathic epilepsy develop multidrug resistance. Therefore, the search for new non-drug treatment alternatives is important. There is a growing interest in the gut-brain axis and its role in the pathogenesis of epilepsy. The gut microbiota can influence brain function by different neural, endocrine, immune
