how can i treat babesiosis??

please help..

 

California Jack has a decent method apparently. I'm not sure if this is the most up to date http://www.angelfire.com/freak/valleyofthefox/babesia.html

 

You can treat it but it's never gone. Breeding it is passing it along. Dog gets in a wreck you're passing it along. Dog is not much use once it has it unless you just want to have it as a pet. Anybody claiming to be able to cure it is absolutely full of it.

Any heavy stress including travel will likely always cause a relapse.

 

Your wrong!! in europe there is a cure called ""CARBESIA"" 2 shots 2 weeks apart of 1 ml on 50lbs dog and its gone. its good for 5 diferend strains of barbasia.. including the USA strains. been there used it cured it!!. speeded up the recovery In combination of performer rpm health tonic and iron tonic to boost hemoglobine...... we done several blood tests and tests on what strain the dogs had . Carbesia it VERY potend stuf can be used and IS used as a READ ""vactination"" treadmend for people who travel with there pets to countries where barbesia is very comon!!!! during there holliday.
the stuf works for 6 weeks as a vacsination!!!!!!!!!!....... . acording to the vetenarin. barbesia will be a thing of the past when dogs that sirvive who have been treated and produce imume cells to it it wil be passed douwn in there ofspring..

 

I'm not wrong! You're a fucking moron! It's turds like you breeding these infected pieces of shit that has the disease in the state that it's in.

 

PS did a google translation but im sure its not acurate. as you can see its not ofisialy reconized as a treadmend for animals, but under sirtin laws its being used. henmsh its probely not known in the usa as a cur.pse tanks for the kind words

Active Ingredient: imidocarb (as dipropionate) 85mg/ml.
Contains the following excipients: water for injections.
Target animals:
There is experience with the use of imidocarb in the dog.
Indications:
Imidocarb is a remedy against parasites (antiprotozoïcum) that can be used in the
treatment and prevention of Babesiosis, Ehrlichiosis and anaplasmosis.
In addition, administration may be considered as an excessively violent response to vaccination
with live vaccine against one of these parasites occurs (see contraindications).
Cautions and contraindications:
Imidocarb should not be used intravenously. Not to be used in combination with a
another agent active against Babesiosis. After treatment the dog for 15 minutes
under observation.
On the use of imidocarb in lactating and pregnant dogs is little known. In a
study with pregnant cows showed imidocarb nor in a single or in a multiple
dose (5 mg / kg) to have any effect on the development of the calf. Given the limited
information on the use of imidocarb in lactating females in particular, is
advised the puppies after 2 days left to put on 'replacement milk.
Do not use within 4 weeks after vaccination with live vaccines against said
indications, because it is the effectiveness of vaccination can adversely affect.
Administration and dosage:
Imidocarb should be administered subcutaneously or intramuscularly. To local tissue reaction
limit may imidocarb the best diluted with physiological saline
(1:10).
The dose to treat Babesiosis in dogs:
Single subcutaneous administration of from 2.125 to 4.25 mg / kg, imidocarb, this corresponds to
0.025 to 0.05 ml Carbesia / kg. This injection repeated after 14 days.
In cases where a suspicion of a mixed infection with Ehrlichia should be
to combine the treatment with doxycycline (see treatment of Ehrlichiosis).
The dosage for prevention of Babesiosis in dogs:
Single subcutaneous administration of 4.25 mg / kg, imidocarb, this corresponds to 0.05 ml / kg
Carbesia.
A single injection may possibly give protection for 1 month. Since the
Babesia parasite is transmitted by ticks, is an effective control and prevention
sign important.
The dosage for treatment of Ehrlichiosis:
Single intramuscular administration of 2.125 to 4.25 mg / kg imidocarb, this corresponds
with 0.025 to 0.05 ml / kg Carbesia. This injection repeated after 14 days. Simultaneous treatment

PS who is the fucking moron now!!..

 

Imidocarb is a remedy against parasites (antiprotozoïcum) that can be used in the
treatment and prevention of Babesiosis, Ehrlichiosis and anaplasmosis.
'
Cant find anywhere where it says it cures it though. Most of the info I've found on the drug is in another language and I'm too lazy to put it in a translation box. Limey, you got anything that states it cures it? I seen a drug name commonly associated with Carbesia I recognized when looking the drug up, seen it a few months ago when I was visiting a pretty well known yard. The drug was imizol (sp) Thought It was odd this person had the drug so it stuck out in my head when this thread was posted and you mentioned Carbesia. I Have yet to come across anything that actually states a cure though, just treatment and prevention.

Thanks, that says prevention and treatment too.
I'm thinking most everything that gets posted will say the same.
I've looked it up on several different sites and it all says pretty much the same thing.

 

You are motherfucker! It's idiot fucks like you spewing bullshit misinformation that is causing half the problem. The disease is treatable. It can be put into remission, but it is NEVER cured! So take your garbage Info and cram it up your ass. I could give 2 squirts of piss wtf you say. You're only justifying breeding your affected mutts.

Anybody that follows this advice and thinks the dog is CURED is an idiot.

 

I am not seeing anything that say's that drug cures Limey I see preventative and used for treatment. As boogie stated this disease is not curable it's treatable and can be brought into remission through proper treatment. But any dog infected with this disease should never be bred.

 

wel you sure behave like a moderater qualified to do his job . Insted of spewing your guts out at least try to educate yourself of medication you never heard of. for your personal intrest i never bred to the dog that got infected and we dont sell dogs . at the same time my dog afther treadment has been put tru stress of work and a unfortunate acsidend with a cur dog who we moniterd for 5 months "" nothing happend""???????. the dog did not get sick .,we also tested the treated dog. 3 more times nothing showed up..
the vets overhere are very comfertable that its cured.. and as you can see in this texst they dont know aczackly how iot works but it thuse!!!.make sure you read the blockage in the replication of DNA during kinetoplastischer parasites!!.

Well even if it's used for treatment and preventative over there Limey the vets are not using it here and it's not been approved by the FDA for use here. From everything I am reading I am not seeing anything that shows this drug cures anything. It still looks like the drug has a lot of unknowns about it so if it were me advising anyone I would advise against until further medical study and testing could be done. Before Drugs are approved here in the US they have to go through a lot of trial testing and study. My dog's are not guinea pigs I wouldn't just give them any drug. I appreciate the info on the drug and maybe somewhere down the line when more is known about the drug and how it works in the body it may be approved for treatment and preventative in other places around the world.

 

Sadieblues Thats ok.
There are many USA drugs that are out there who will not see the euro market 10 to 15 years later ""afther"" being released, due to it being a BISNIS!!.and the paterns that are on it.. and the testing program of the USA meds overhere. They dont give a flying F..k if people ore animals live ore die.its about the money.

But every euro country vet is using Carbesia now. no usa clasified drugs is ore are used... the over reackting of Boogymanblood is rediculess as he never heard of the stuff befor .
kinda like oohh i dont know it and its not made in the usa it can never be good.. thats hilarius.. bij the way sadiebleus Belive me if your pet ore animal has barbesia and there is a ecsperimental drug out ther you to are going to use it to try save your animal using him as a guinepig.. Carbesia is WAY past being a exsperimental drugs.. and iven tho the articels where it sais WE dont know aczackly how it works. thussend mean the manufacturer dont know!!. thats the secred where millions and millions of $$ of reasearch gose into..

 

You keep telling yourself that happy horse shit.

Funny you say they don't even know how it works, but IT'S A CURE LOL. Typical silly fucking bullshit.

 

That is a very diplomatic way of putting it sadieblues. But if on of my dogs had babesiosis, I would have no problem giving Carbesia a shot if it was available.

 

Re: how can i treat babesiosis?? Doxycycline

If the dogs Red blood cell count isn't to low to where a transfusion would be needed then,
Berenil injections followed by a Doxycycline cycle.

That would be your choice. But we have drugs in the US right now that are approved for the treatment of babesiosis to keep it under control. Personally if it were me I wouldn't want a dog with it so I would PTS. But I understand people might want to keep the dog alive and treat it for whatever reason. However prevention and treatment is not the same thing as a cure.

 

That was a treatment I posted earlier, as requested by the original poster.
According to this article inside the link posted above, by Johnny D. Hoskins, DVM, PhD, Dipl. ACVIM it can be cured
