Vétoquinol Makes Epiphen® Support Pack Even Better

Vétoquinol, manufacturer of Epiphen®, the No1 anti-epileptic phenobarbital for the control of epilepsy in dogs*, has added two new, highly practical items to its valuable Epiphen® support pack. A new client brochure and an innovative fridge magnet should help owners to fully understand the condition and make it easier for them to comply with daily dosage requirements. What I need to know is a brand new brochure, written specifically for clients that have been prescribed Epiphen® for their pet for the first time. Abbie King, Product Manager for Epiphen®, explains: ‘’The inspiration for the new brochure came after spending time at the Animal Health Trust in Newmarket and realising how much information an owner needs to take in when their dog is diagnosed with epilepsy.” The new brochure covers the important information owners need to help them understand and manage their dog’s epilepsy, including how Epiphen® works, what they can do to help their dog, how to monitor seizures, where to find further information and frequently asked questions. The Epiphen® Treatment fridge magnet is designed as a quick reference guide to prescribing information that is needed every day when living with a dog with epilepsy. The magnet leaves space for the owner to write in their dog’s name, dosage details and timings and their vet’s phone number. It is especially helpful as a reference if more than one person is caring for the dog. The new items enhance the existing Epiphen® support pack, which comprises a comprehensive owner manual, medication record and seizure diary, dog tags, seizure report pads, free serum level monitoring vouchers and a free, online resource at www.epiphenonline.co.uk Vétoquinol has almost 20 years’ experience in dealing with queries related to epilepsy. Over 25% of the calls to Vétoquinol’s technical team relate to this challenging condition.
