The growth of hair damaged by lichen is stimulated by hemobalance.

Contraindications and possible adverse reactions

Individual intolerance to the active and auxiliary substances included in the composition of this veterinary drug is the only condition that makes its use "taboo," according to the official instructions. Furthermore, Hemobalance cannot be taken concurrently with medications that contain iron.

Hypersensitivity can lead to the development of allergic reactions. You need to stop taking the medication and see a veterinarian as soon as you notice any negative side effects.

How to take Hemobalance correctly

It is best to delegate to a veterinarian the dosage and length of the treatment regimen. However, the following guidelines apply generally when using this medication:

• Hemobalance is administered intramuscularly or intravenously. And drinking is also allowed;
• for intravenous injections, the drug should be diluted with electrolyte solutions;
• for prophylactic purposes, the solution is taken once a week, for therapeutic purposes – twice;
• a single dose of the drug for cats weighing less than 5 kg is 0.25 ml, from 5 to 15 kg – 0.5 ml;
• when drinking, the solution can be diluted with water;
• before the upcoming stress load, injections are administered 8, 6 and 4 days before and immediately before the event itself.

Since neither my husband nor I have the necessary skills to administer an injection, we prefer to give the cat its medication orally before long trips, which happen frequently. To avoid recurrent veterinary visits for this problem, the veterinarian recommended that we give our eight-month-old cat sedative pills.

A supplement called Hemobalance is intended to help cats’ immune systems and encourage normal blood production.

Frequent use can strengthen immunity and promote better health, making it a useful tool for cats who require additional support.

How to store the drug

Analogues of Hemobalans

There is no complete structural analogue of Hemobalans in any of the many vitamin and mineral complexes that consumers can purchase from both domestic and international pharmaceutical companies. Therefore, cat owners turn to veterinary medications with functional analogues of hemobalans for assistance when the drug is not available on pharmacy shelves or when there are contraindications to using it.

Drug’s functional counterparts:

• Gamavit;
• Duphalite;
• Vittri-1;
• Polydex Gelabon with glucosamine;
• Katozal.

Since each of the aforementioned multivitamin complexes has a number of side effects and contraindications, they are not interchangeable medications. A veterinarian is the only one who can choose to switch out a medication, even though they are freely accessible.

I have never needed to give my cat any kind of multivitamin complex, including Hemobalance. However, my mother gives her broiler chickens katozal on a regular basis as a preventative measure. She gives the bird a drink of the medicine she has made by diluting the drug with water. She’s been taking this medication for over five years. During this time, there have been no negative effects. As she puts it, the drug’s quality more than makes up for its somewhat expensive price.

Gamavit has applications in both therapy and prevention. A cat may be prescribed injections containing Dufalight to prevent and treat vitamin deficiencies. Vitamins A, D, and E are present in Vittri-1. Cats are prescribed katozal to boost immunity. After using Polydexa, medical science has not discovered any negative effects. Gelabona remains unidentified.

When a cat needs assistance with their hematopoiesis or immune system, hemobalance can be a useful supplement. Its mix of vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients can help with anemia and other blood-related conditions, as well as help with the healing process following surgery or illness.

But it’s crucial to keep in mind that Hemobalance should only be used under a veterinarian’s supervision. Based on your pet’s unique requirements, your veterinarian will decide if it’s the best option for your cat and provide the appropriate dosage.

Hemobalance can be a major factor in enhancing your cat’s general health and wellbeing if you heed your veterinarian’s advice and make sure they receive the right care.
