Vetmedin (Pimobendan) Chewable Tablets for the treatment of congestive heart failure in dogs. As the first of a new class of heart treatments termed Inodilators, Vetmedin has been shown to significantly improve the clinical signs and extend the life expectancy in dogs with congestive heart failure.

Vetmedin works through two complementary modes of action; it opens up the blood vessels taking blood to and away from the heart, thereby lowering the pressure on the heart and reducing the work the heart has to do to pump blood around the dog's body.

At the same time, Vetmedin has a direct effect on the heart muscle, helping it to beat stronger and pump blood more efficiently.
