Pills
GS-441524: For the best absorption, it is important that the pills be administered on an empty stomach. It is recommended that your cat fast for at least an hour before and and hour after taking GS-441524 pills. (A very small amount of treat or pill pocket is ok in order to get them to take the pills, but use the minimum necessary.). If your kitty vomits within 1.5 hours of taking the pills, give the dose again.
Molnupiravir: Fasting is NOT required when treating with oral Molnupiravir. If your cat immediately vomits up the dose, you can re-administer, but otherwise wait until the time for the next dose.
If your dose has been given as a dose per day, it is generally preferred per ISFM guidelines to divide the dose and give half every 12 hours to optimize blood concentration levels.
IMPORTANT: Remember to weigh your kitty at least once per week and adjust the dose for weight gain!
