Turn on appetite
Finally, appetite stimulation is in your control
Until now, there have been limited therapeutic options to restore appetite.
That’s why we created ENTYCE® (capromorelin oral solution), the only
FDA-approved therapeutic designed to safely and effectively stimulate
appetite in dogs.
ENTYCE works by mimicking the hunger hormone ghrelin. Administered
orally once a day, ENTYCE is appropriate to treat inappetence caused by
chronic and acute conditions.
Visit Aratana booth #509.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION: ENTYCE® (capromorelin oral solution) is for use in dogs only. Do not use in breeding,
pregnant or lactating dogs. Use with caution in dogs with hepatic dysfunction or renal insufficiency. Adverse reactions in dogs
may include diarrhea, vomiting, polydipsia, and hypersalivation. Should not be used in dogs that have a hypersensitivity to
capromorelin. Please see the full Prescribing Information for more detail. A copy of the full Prescribing Information is available
at the Aratana booth (#509).
