IDEXX VetTest® Chemistry Analyser

NEW NSAID Monitoring Panel
for the VetTest® Chemistry Analyser

Now monitoring your patients on NSAID therapy is easy

The panel includes five targeted tests recommended for monitoring nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) therapy packaged in one convenient tray for easy, quick and economical use on your VetTest analyser.

The ALKP, ALT and AST tests assist you in identifying damage to the liver, and BUN and CREA screen for damage to the kidney (those organs most at risk from NSAID therapy).

The new NSAID Monitoring Panel:

• Saves you time, with all the tests you need in one convenient box.

• Saves you money, because you don't need to pull other panels apart to find the appropriate tests, leaving those panels incomplete

• Ensures the safety of your patients on NSAID therapy

How can you ensure that your practice is following the recommended protocols?

• Follow manufacturer's recommendations by completing a thorough history, performing a physical examination and collecting laboratory baseline data, before beginning nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) therapy.

• Test periodically during administration of any NSAID.

• Monitor patients on a regular basis so you can pinpoint the source of abnormalities and adjust medication as necessary.

• Know if a medication is causing harmful side effects so you can stop treatment before significant damage occurs.

How can you make sure your clients won't seek alternative sources for their pets' prescriptions?

• Check in regularly to ensure that your clients are remembering to administer medications.

• Monitor and prescribe in one visit.

• Encourage client compliance by keeping them up-to-date on their pets' treatment successes.
