For:

Cats

Benefits:

  • Normalizes blood sugar levels in cats with type II diabetes
  • Highly effective when combined with a low-carbohydrate diet

How it Works:

Glipizide is an oral blood-glucose-lowering drug in a class called sulfonylureas. It acts by causing the pancreas to release insulin, which helps to lower blood sugar.

Cautions:

Tell your veterinarian if your pet has kidney or liver disease, thyroid disease, a serious infection, illness or injury, or if your pet needs surgery. Also tell your veterinarian if your pet is pregnant or lactating. Side effects include vomiting, loss of appetite, and jaundice. Hypoglycemia may occur.

Glipizide Compounded Directions:

  • Glipizide is a prescription medication used to regulate type II diabetes in cats.
  • Glipizide is not FDA approved for use in veterinary medicine; however, it is a commonly accepted practice for veterinarians to prescribe this medication for cats.
  • Glipizide is for use in cats only. Do not use this medication in dogs.
  • Follow the directions given by your veterinarian when administering Glipizide.
Tip:

Glipizide may cause blood sugar levels to be too low. Signs and symptoms of low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) may include headache, drowsiness, weakness, dizziness, fast heart beat, sweating, tremor and nausea. Treat hypoglycemia in cats by applying teaspoon of Karo Syrup to the cat's gums. Routine blood tests, urinalysis, and kidney function tests may be needed.
