WHY
•
•
•
‘Veterinary Technician must understand why the
diagnosis was made, why the surgery was performed,
why the prognosis was rendered and why the treatment
was prescribed’
Independent: assess and monitor patients, implement
therapeutic protocols, obtain and perform dx. Protocols
“know and think” and ‘do’
Medication Error
“Medication error as any
preventable event that
may cause or lead to
inappropriate medication
use or patient harm while
the medication is in the
control of the health care
professional, patient, or
consumer” June 2010

ALL DRUGS ARE POISONS
• Safety and Efficacy is dependent on DOSE, MODE OF
ADMINISTRATION and INDIVIDUAL patient
characteristics
– Tylenol (acetaminophen) safe for humans, tolerated in dogs
and DEADLY IN CATS
– Intranasal IBR given Subcutaneous
– Underweight or dehydrated patients
– Immiticide (arsenic) in dogs
– Drug is a substance used to tx, prevent or dx. Dz. In
animals
Top Pet Toxin of 2008: Medications
• In 2008, human medications like
ibuprofen, acetaminophen,
decongestants, cold medicines and
anti-depressants topped the ASPCA's
list of most common pet poisons

Dosage Forms
• Physical appearance/ type of drug
• Tablets, capsules, solutions, liniments
Enteral Administration:
Oral Route (PO)
 Delivers drug directly to the GI tract
 Most
route of admin.; LEAST LIKELY to
cause adverse reactions
onset of action;
duration of activity
 Absorption is not always predictable.
 Affected by GI disease, A&P of digestive tract
 Before entering the bloodstream, an oral drug must be:
1. released from the dose form
2. transported across the GI tract
3. passed through the liver
Solid Dosage Forms - PO
• TABLETS

Powdered drugs compressed into disks/
• CAPLETS: tablet/capsule
capsule shaped tablets
easily swallowed;

Solid Dosage Forms - PO
• GEL CAPS: CAPSULES
– Pwdr. Drug in gelatin
capsule > soft and
release in stomach

• Sulfamethazine: BRDC,
e.coli, foot rot
Suppositories
 ALTERNATIVE for delivering
drugs to animals that present
dangers to the vet staff or
animals in very poor condition
where other methods of
admin. are not practical.
 Anticonvulsants, analgesics,
antiemetics

side effect of rectal drug

Regulation of Drug Products
• The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) became a
government agency to enforce the federal Pure Food and
Drug Act of 1906
– The Pure Food and Drug Act established standards for drug strength,
purity, and guidelines for drug labeling
• Until the late 1930s, the FDA had little power to determine
and enforce correct drug dosage information
• In 1938, Congress passed the federal Food, Drug, and
Cosmetic Act (FDCA), which required that a drug be
adequately tested to demonstrate its safety when used as its
label directs
• In 1972, the FDCA was amended to include many more
protections

Regulation of Drug Products
• The FDA is headed by a commissioner and organized into a
number of different centers
• The FDA’s Center for Veterinary Medicine (CVM) ensures that
approved veterinary medicines will not harm animals
• The FDA-CVM prohibits the sale and use of a drug that would
cause animals to suffer serious health problems
• The 1968 amendments to the FDCA made drug manufacturers
specify drug withdrawal periods and detection methods for
determining drug residues in animal foodstuffs
• Details: Figure 1-1

Reporting Adverse Reactions
• Table 1-1
• SE/ ADR
– Precautions: rare ADR/ mild SE
– Warnings: More serious or frequent SE
– Contraindications: Don’t use with ….malpractice
• Overdose information
• Benefit outweigh potential SE: e.g slight GI
upset ok if treats severe FRDC/ CRDC
