Chemotherapy

At the Animal Hospital Aisti, we offer your pet the option of chemotherapy. In the treatment of cancer, an accurate diagnosis is particularly important, so we examine the samples taken from the patient with a pathologist before making a treatment plan. Our veterinarian plans a suitable cytostatic treatment for the patient, and reviews the effects of the treatment with the owner.

Lower doses of cytostat are used for dogs and cats compared to humans, so the side effects are usually milder. Side effects depend on the drug used and the dose. The patient’s condition is monitored with the help of blood samples and, if necessary, the dosage of cytostats or the dosing interval can be changed. The goal of cytostat treatment is to enable the best possible quality of life for the pet.
