Bloodwork (CBC and a Chem panel) is needed near the beginning of treatment, and again after four weeks, after eight weeks, and during the twelfth week (in time for us to review the results before Day 84). Please post the original lab reports in your treatment chat, along with the tracking spreadsheet.
Weigh your kitty regularly, and ask us for any help you need adjusting the dose accordingly.
Inject in the areas shown on the Doing GS injections page (not in the scruff), and rotate the location for each injection.
Always change to a fresh needle for injecting, because the needle you use to draw from the vial will become dulled from being pushed through the rubber stopper.
As your kitty regains its strength, you may wish to ask your vet for a gabapentin prescription to calm your kitty for the injections.
If your kitty has not yet been spayed or neutered, please schedule the procedure about two weeks before the end of the treatment period. That way, the remaining treatment will help with any stress caused by the procedure.
The treatment is a minimum of 84 days, with some kitties needing to be extended beyond 84 days. Please do not stop treating until your admins have reviewed the final bloodwork and cleared your kitty for observation.
