The drug is a small tablet which can be administered on its own or with food for ease and is available in a number of strengths depending on the size of the animal.

There can be some side effects to the medication. Cats may put on weight while using the drug but this is a positive side effect as they may have suffered weight loss with a kidney condition in the first place. Some dogs have suffered fatigue and mild dizziness but no stronger side effects have been noted in animals using the medication. There is a possibility of interaction with other drugs, so animals already on medication should be regularly monitored by a vet.

Fortekor is a prescription-only medication, which means a vet must write a prescription for it. However, it is possible to buy pet drugs online and VioVet supplies discount pet medication. The drug can also be obtained from your veterinary surgeon but this is often the most expensive way of purchasing medication. The prescription must be obtained from the vet and sent to VioVet before you can be supplied with the drug.
