What is Galastop 50ug/ml Oral Solution?

Galastop 50ug/ml Oral Solution is a medication prescribed by vets for false pregnancy in dogs. It’s also used for suppressing lactation in bitches.

False pregnancy (also known as phantom pregnancy) in dogs occurs when a female dog is displaying maternal behaviours even though they’re not actually pregnant. This is often combined with physical signs of pregnancy such as enlarged mammary glands (with or without milk production), fluid retention and vomiting.

False pregnancies can occur at any age and usually follow the heat period (approximately four to nine weeks afterwards). They can be very distressing for dogs, as their behaviour can change as a result. They may become restless, aggressive and even depressed (often they guard and mother small toys).

As for lactation suppression, there are a number of different reasons you might need to do this. Sometimes lactation can occur as a direct result of a false pregnancy, it may happen naturally after her puppies have been weaned. Sometimes, a dog may continue to lactate due to illness, disease or if her puppy sadly dies.

Galastop 50ug/ml Oral Solution is an effective medicine designed to be taken orally and it is supplied in 7ml and 15ml bottles.

How does Galastop 50ug/ml Oral Solution work?
