Indication for Use Prevention of estrus, infertility, false pregnancy Summary Mibolerone is used to prevent dogs from coming into heat, and in the treatment of some causes of infertility and false pregnancy. Do NOT use in cats. Do NOT use in dogs with or predisposed to liver or kidney disease. Contact your veterinarian if your dog experiences aggression, urinary incontinence, lethargy, lack of appetite, weight loss, vomiting, or yellow gums while taking mibolerone. General Information FDA approved for use in dogs for estrus suppression. Mibolerone is an androgenic steroid which opposes the effects of estrogen and other hormones which cause ovulation and subsequent production of progesterone. Need to start the medication at least 30 days before proestrus to prevent the female from coming into heat. It is about 90% effective. Do not use in dogs which are to be bred in the future, as start of the next cycle may vary from 7-200 days from discontinuation of Cheque Drops. It has been used to lengthen short cycles which cause infertility and to treat false pregnancies. The false pregnancy may recur when the medication is discontinued. Because of this and the fact that most false pregnancies resolve on their own, no treatment is usually given. The most effective way to prevent these problems in dogs who are not showing in the breed ring and are not going to be used for breeding is by an ovariohysterectomy (spay).
