GS-441524 Tablets are an innovative oral treatment specifically developed for managing Feline Infectious Peritonitis (FIP), a once-fatal viral disease affecting cats. These tablets contain GS-441524, a potent nucleoside analog that works by inhibiting the replication of feline coronavirus responsible for FIP. Designed for convenient at-home administration, the tablets offer an effective, non-invasive alternative to injectable therapy, especially suitable for cats that are difficult to inject or for long-term treatment.
Each tablet is carefully dosed based on the cat's weight and condition severity, with common dosages including 20mg, 40mg, and 60mg formulations. Cats receiving GS-441524 tablets typically show rapid improvement—within days to weeks, symptoms like fever, lethargy, poor appetite, and abdominal fluid accumulation often begin to subside. These tablets are used over a standard 84-day treatment course, and consistent administration is crucial to achieve full recovery.
GS-441524 Tablets are gaining global recognition among veterinarians and cat owners for their safety, ease of use, and high success rate in treating both wet and dry forms of FIP. They represent a vital breakthrough in feline medicine, bringing new hope and extended lives to countless cats suffering from this challenging condition.

Feline Infectious Peritonitis (FIP) is a fatal viral disease in cats caused by a mutation of the feline coronavirus (FCoV). While most cats infected with FCoV do not develop FIP, in some cases, the virus mutates and triggers an abnormal immune response, leading to FIP.
FCoV is common in multi-cat environments like shelters and catteries. The virus is primarily transmitted through fecal-oral contact, where cats ingest the virus from contaminated surfaces, litter boxes, or grooming each other.
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
Taking time: Both taken before and after meals is ok. It is recommended to take it at a fixed time every day.
Taking method: Take it directly. If the cat does not eat it, it can also be mixed in the feed.
Storage: Store at room temperature or Store at 2~4 ° C. Avoid light. Shelf life is one year.
Recommended treatment for 12 weeks.
