GS-441524 tablets are an innovative oral form of the antiviral drug GS-441524, used to treat Feline Infectious Peritonitis (FIP) in cats. FIP is a lethal disease caused by a mutation of the feline coronavirus, leading to severe systemic symptoms. The tablets are a nucleoside analog that targets the virus's RNA-dependent RNA polymerase, disrupting its ability to replicate within the host cells.
The active ingredient, GS-441524, mimics the natural nucleosides used by the viral RNA polymerase during replication. When incorporated into the viral RNA, it causes premature termination of the RNA strand, effectively halting viral replication. This action reduces the viral load in the cat's body, allowing the immune system to manage the infection more effectively.
GS-441524 tablets are designed for oral administration, providing a convenient and non-invasive treatment option. They are available in various dosages, allowing precise customization of the treatment regimen based on the cat's weight and the severity of the disease.
In conclusion, GS-441524 tablets represent a significant advancement in the treatment of FIP, offering a practical and effective option for managing this challenging disease. While there are still hurdles related to regulatory approval and cost, the positive outcomes associated with GS-441524 provide hope for cats diagnosed with FIP and their owners.

Diagnosing FIP is challenging and often involves a combination of clinical signs, laboratory tests, and ruling out other diseases. Common diagnostic steps include:
1. Blood tests: Elevated protein levels, high white blood cell count, and low albumin-to-globulin ratio.
2. Imaging: Ultrasound or X-rays to detect fluid accumulation.
3. Fluid analysis: Testing the fluid from the abdomen or chest for elevated protein levels and specific cell types.
4. Biopsy: Histopathological examination of affected tissues can provide a definitive diagnosis.
Recommended dosage: 10mg/KG * body weight kg
