| Dosage | For oral use in dogs. For the prevention of nausea induced by chemotherapy and treatment and prevention of vomiting (except motion sickness) in dogs aged 8 weeks of age or older Cerenia tablets should be administered once daily, at a dose of 2 mg maropitant per kg bodyweight, using the number of tablets given in the table below. Tablets are breakable along the score line on the tablet. To prevent vomiting, tablets should be given more than 1 hour in advance. The duration of the effect is approximately 24 hours and, therefore, tablets can be given the night before administration of an agent that may cause emesis (e.g. chemotherapy). Cerenia can be used as either tablets or Solution for Injection once daily. Cerenia Solution for Injection may be administered for up to five days and Cerenia Tablets for up to 14 days. Cerenia tablets are effective in the treatment of vomiting, however in cases of frequent vomiting it is recommended to initiate treatment with Cerenia Solution for Injection.

A light meal or snack before dosing is recommended; prolonged fasting before administration should be avoided.
