It is indicated for the control of urinary incontinence due to urethral sphincter hypotonus in dogs.
Trimeprazine with Prednisolone, imported in 5 mg/2 mg tablets, is a combination drug containing Trimeprazine (antipruritic) with Prednisolone (corticosteroid), as the active ingredients. It is recommended for the relief of itching and the reduction of inflammation commonly associated with most skin disorders of dogs.
