Description
Evinton increases immunity in viral diseases; complications during vaccination; respiratory tract diseases.
Evinton is a complex homeopathic medicine containing Thuja D6, Vincetoxicum D4 and Echinacea purpurea D4 as active ingredients, as well as auxiliary components sodium chloride and water for injection. The drug is produced in the form of a sterile, transparent, colorless solution for injection, packaged in 100 ml glass bottles.
Instructions for use
The dosage depends on the dosage form of the drug. The solution for oral administration is given to the animal 2 times a day without meals (1 drop per 1 kg of body weight). The medicine is easy to use, since the bottle is equipped with a special dispenser. It is enough to fix the cat, open its jaws with your index finger and pour in the solution in the required amount. The course of treatment varies from 2 to 3 weeks.
Give the animal 1 tablet 1-3 times a day. For pets whose weight does not exceed 4–5 kg, a single dose per day is sufficient. If the cat is large, then you can give the medicine 2 times a day. A three-time dose is intended for animals in serious condition. The course of therapy ranges from 5 to 14 days. The tablets can be given with food (pre-crushed) or separately (on an empty stomach).
It is recommended to do this using a special syringe, which can be purchased at any veterinary pharmacy. You can also crush the tablet first, mix it with a small amount of boiled water and give it to the animal. To do this, it is recommended to use either a teaspoon (which is not always convenient) or a syringe without a needle. The algorithm of actions is the same: first you need to restrain the pet, then loosen the jaws and pour in the medicine. Once you are sure that the cat has swallowed the drug, you can release it.
It is most convenient to give the tablet to a cat using a special syringe.
It is prohibited to select the course of treatment and dosage yourself. This can only be done by a doctor based on data obtained through laboratory and instrumental research methods.
Features of using the injection form of Evinton
The solution intended for injection is administered subcutaneously or intramuscularly 1–2 times a day for 1–2 weeks. For cats, the dosage is 3 ml. If the pet is large, then the amount of the drug is determined by the doctor, but often does not exceed 4–5 ml.
Is it possible to give a cat an injection yourself?
If you have certain skills, you can give the injection yourself. However, if such a manipulation has never been performed before, you should seek help from a veterinarian. You can give an injection into the thigh muscle. However, it should be remembered that this area is very sensitive in cats. First of all, it is recommended to select a syringe and the shortest needle. Then you need to feel your pet’s thigh muscle (it should roll under your fingers).
Then draw the solution into a syringe and secure the animal. It's best to have another person do this. Then insert the needle into the muscle (at an angle of 45 degrees to the surface) no more than 1 cm and squeeze out the contents of the syringe. You should not inject the medicine sharply, as this will cause pain in the cat.
The injection should be given to the cat using a thin and short needle.
You can inject the solution into the withers area. This is not difficult to do; just grab the skin in the area of the shoulder blades with two fingers and stretch it. Then insert the needle at an angle of 45 degrees to the spine and gently squeeze out the contents. It should be taken into account that the skin in the withers area is the densest, but trying to press on the syringe is not recommended.
The injection into the withers area should be done carefully, without effort.
Attention! If you accidentally hit a nerve ending when self-injecting a solution into a muscle, the cat will limp for some time, so it is not recommended to use long needles or resort to the procedure without basic skills.
Precautionary measures
What you need to consider before starting to use the drug:
- After contact with the medicine, always wash your hands with soap.
- Wear gloves before administering the injection.
- Avoid getting the solution into your eyes.
- Medicine bottles must be thrown away. It is prohibited to use them for domestic purposes.
- After administering the medicine, the syringe should be thrown away, but first you need to put a protective cap on the needle.
The syringe needle must be disposed of only in the cap
After the first injection, it is important to monitor the reaction of the animal’s body. If the cat does not develop symptoms of hypersensitivity (itching, vomiting, diarrhea, redness of the skin, etc.), then treatment can be continued.
Sourdough "Eviton" (250 mg)
"Eviton" is a concentrate of starter cultures for the preparation of healthy fermented milk products.

It contains a group of particularly valuable substances in a combination that is favorable for absorption. These are organic acids (according to modern data, they are the ones who “nourish” the epithelium of the gastrointestinal tract), milk protein (transformed by microflora during the process of propionic acid fermentation into a form easily digestible by the body, which helps restore the mucous membrane of the gastrointestinal tract), vitamin B12, which is not found in any in what other dairy products? In addition, B vitamins are found here in the most valuable coenzyme form for absorption by the body.

Cooking method:
Open the bottle of starter immediately before preparation. Once opened, all contents must be used completely.
To prepare the Eviton product you will need 1 liter of milk with a long shelf life. If you use fresh or pasteurized milk, it must be attached and cooled to a temperature of 40 degrees. It is recommended to use milk with a fat content of no more than 3.5%, because higher fat content interferes with the ripening process.
1) Prepare the dishes for cooking, wash them well and treat them with boiling water to eliminate all foreign microbes that may affect the quality of the prepared product.
A 2-3 liter glass jar with a plastic lid is suitable for cooking.
2) If the milk is sterilized (with a long shelf life), then heat the milk package in a water bath to a temperature of about 40 degrees (you can put the milk package in a pan of water and heat it on the stove to a temperature of 40 degrees).

4) Open the Eviton bottle and pour a tablespoon of prepared heated milk into it, close the bottle with a rubber stopper and shake the contents well several times.
5) Pour the contents from the bottle into a jar of milk and mix thoroughly with a clean spoon.
6) Close the jar, wrap it in paper or cloth to retain heat and place in a warm place for 8-14 hours until a dense clot forms. It is advisable to maintain the temperature at least 30 degrees (We recommend using a yogurt maker).
7) After the required time has passed for the formation of a dense clot, the jar must be placed in the refrigerator. And after 6 hours the product is ready for use.
If you followed the correct preparation procedure, the resulting product can be stored for up to 15 days and will not peroxidize during this period.
The finished product can be used as a starter for preparing new portions of the product. To do this, mix the previously prepared product and set aside 3 tablespoons from it into a new prepared glass jar per 1 liter of milk (6 tablespoons per 2 liters of milk).
Then do everything according to the instructions as for the first preparation.
Features of use in pregnant cats and kittens
The medicine can be used for pregnant females and kittens, since the components of the medicine do not have a detrimental effect on the fetus and do not affect the growing body. During lactation, the drug can also be used for therapy without fear. The dosage is standard, as for all other animals.
The drug can be used to treat pregnant cats
However, before using the medicine during pregnancy and lactation, you should consult a veterinarian. The same should be done before starting kitten therapy. In this case, the doctor will determine the necessary course of treatment.
During pregnancy and lactation, cats are very sensitive, so in order to minimize stress, it is recommended to use an oral solution for therapy, which is easiest to administer to pets.
A similar drug helped a friend save a kitten from death. The fact is that the baby was found on the street, she was in terrible condition. A friend and her husband took the cat under their care and decided to take her out. Every day they took the kitten to the veterinary clinic for IV drips, as a terrible diagnosis was discovered - distemper. The friend fought to the last, because she really wanted to save the baby. One of the complex treatment drugs was an immunomodulator, which was administered intravenously to the pet. After some time, a miracle happened: the cat began to recover. Now she is big and feels great. Sometimes immunomodulators help in the most hopeless situations.
