Neogen Vet ImmunoRegulin is a USDA approved immunostimulant as an adjunct to antibiotic therapy in the treatment of chronic recurring canine pyoderma to decrease the severity and extent of lesions, and increase the percentage of dogs free of lesions after the appropriate therapeutic period. ImmunoRegulin is also given (extra-label) for feline leukemia virus-induced FeLV, feline herpes, and for horses under the label EqStim Injection for equine respiratory infections.
It’s an extremely stable product that requires only room temperature storage and doesn’t contain albumins. Has been used safely in millions of animals, and does not have a high potential for causing anaphylaxis. With ImmunoRegulin therapy, less dosage and less frequency of antibiotic treatment are usually required. Clinical trials demonstrated an 80% rate of healing when ImmunoRegulin was used in conjunction with antibiotics.

Dosage: Two injections per week for the first two weeks followed by one injection per week until the 12th week: thereafter, once a month until symptoms abate or stabilize.
