From UndisclosedComments about Pimobendan for Dogs and Cats Compounded Mini-Med 2.5 mg TabletMedicine is medicine. However,the size of the tablet is so much better for giving Kodee her meds. She is very difficult. It now fits in a half of a pill pocket with no problem. I can't say enough about your staff and helping me in a difficult situation. Thank you so much and hugs and kisses from Kodee…licks really.-

On the fence about what you can offer
From UndisclosedComments about Pimobendan for Dogs and Cats Compounded Mini-Med 2.5 mg TabletI'm happy that you can offer small pills, as my dog wants nothing to do with the chewable ones. When I ordered, it came within 2 days. The only thing I don't like is that the cost is double what I was paying at my last vet office. My current vet doesn't offer the small pills. Same dosage, not sure why it should cost another $30 to get small pills of the same prescription.-

Do these tablets break/cut easily? I've had tablets in the past which crumbled and I ended up wasting 1/2 the tablet. Would be nice to be able to snap these by hand without a pill cutter but if not simply using a pill cutter and able to give both halves of the pill would be a plus too!?

I am currently using Pimobendan 1.25 mg "Tiny Tabs" for my cat, that I get from my vet. They are the perfect size, are scored for easy cutting, and are 6.4mm (1/4") in diameter. Are these Mini-Med tablets the same size ? Thank You?
-
The Pimobendan for Dogs and Cats Compounded Mini-Med that VetRxDirect carries that are of comparable size and are also scored. We have some pictures provided below to give you a better frame of reference to show they are roughly 6-7 millimeters.

curious why the generic is the same, if not more expensive than the name brand...Pimobendan--Vetmedin 10mg?
-
Pimobendan for Dogs and Cats Compounded Mini-Med, is not a generic equivalent to Vetmedin Chewable Tablets. Rather it is a compounded medication that provides a smaller tablet than Vetmedin to make it easier to swallow. It is also unflavored which may be beneficial to a pet sensitive to the beef flavor in Vetmedin Chewable Tablets. Our pricing is determined by what we actually pay for the medications that we sell and will vary up and down over time. Please consult your veterinarian regarding any further questions or concerns regarding this medication in your cat/dog.
