Aminocaproic Acid Oral Liquid

Aminocaproic acid can be used for managing bleeding following surgery, and can also be used to treat nerve degeneration in dogs, particularly German Shepherds, since it may inhibit inflammation that harms nerves.
Adverse reactions in dogs are uncommon but may include symptoms such as vomiting, anorexia, and diarrhea.
The medication can be taken with or without food. If your dog experiences vomiting, try administering the drug with food or a small treat to determine if it helps. If vomiting persists, consult your veterinarian.
It is recommended to take the medication at a regular schedule of three times a day and to try to avoid missing any doses. It may take a few weeks to determine if the drug is effective in treatment.

Directions for administration.

Solutions do not need to be shaken before use.
Suspensions need to be re-suspended before each use. Re-suspend by shaking the medication thoroughly for at least 15 seconds.
Check the inside bottom of your bottle for an unwanted build-up called “caking.” This can be done by holding the bottle upside down (while it is still capped) and shining a bright light on the bottom of the bottle. If any solid matter remains at the bottom of your bottle after shaking takes place, caking has occurred.
Caking can be remedied by running the outside of the medication bottle under some warm to hot water for 30-60 seconds. Then, shake the medication vigorously. The particles of drug caked at the bottom of the bottle should re-disperse.

Using the syringe.

Remove the cap from the syringe and insert the tip of the syringe into the self sealing hole in the center of the opening of the neck of the bottle.
With the syringe inserted, invert the bottle and slowly draw out the prescribed amount of medication.
Hold your pet’s head steady and gently open their mouth.
Slowly insert the tip of the syringe into the side of your pet’s mouth. Aim the tip of the syringe towards the back of their throat. Avoid inserting the syringe into the center of their mouth, as this can cause them to gag.
Steadily push the plunger towards the tip of the syringe to administer the medication.

Medication storage.

Oral liquid medications should be kept in an airtight container, protected from light.
Store your oral liquid medications upright. Avoid storing oral liquid medications on their side.
Generally speaking, aqueous oral liquids, or oral liquids containing water, should be stored in the refrigerator.
Oral liquids made with oil should be stored at a controlled room temperature.
To determine if your oral liquid contains water or oil, reference the prescription label. The term “AQ” or “OIL” will be found immediately after the drug name in parentheses.
It is very important to know that storage requirements vary on a drug-by-drug basis. Please reference and follow the specific storage recommendations for each individual drug. These recommendations can be found on the prescription label or auxiliary label affixed to the prescription bottle.

How long will it take for my order to arrive?

Please allow a period of 1 to 3 business days from the time it was ordered for your medication to be delivered. Orders placed at 4:30pm or later may take up to 4 business days to arrive in rare circumstances.

I left my medication out of the fridge accidentally, is it still okay to use?

Most of our liquid medications are stored refrigerated for flavor purposes only. If your bottle is labeled with an auxiliary label that says “may refrigerate,” refrigeration is not required for stability. If your bottle is labeled with an auxiliary label that says “refrigerate,” it is best to call the pharmacy at 503-352-3811 to confirm stability after a period of unrefrigerated storage.

What is the proper way to dispose of unwanted medication?

Unwanted and unused drugs may be dropped at some police and sheriff stations.
Unwanted medications may also be brought to a hazardous waste facility or collection event in your area.
If you must dispose of the medication at home, the best way to do so is to fill a ziplock bag with kitty litter or coffee grounds and dump the medication into the ziplock bag. The ziplock bag containing the grounds/litter and medication can then be disposed of in your regular garbage.
If you have non-expired medication that you no longer need, you may be able to donate it to a veterinary clinic. It is best to check with the clinic beforehand to see if they are able to accept your donation.

Is it possible to return an unused compounded medication for a refund?

Due to the custom-made nature of compounded medications, we are unable to accept returns and cannot offer refunds on medications once compounding has been performed.
