What is Apoquel used for?

Apoquel is specifically designed to address allergic dermatitis and is commonly used to relieve itching associated with allergies in dogs. It functions as an immunomodulatory medication that targets and inhibits specific pathways of itch-related inflammation. This makes it uniquely effective for managing chronic itching and inflammation that are often caused by environmental allergens, food allergies, or other conditions that result in excessive scratching or licking.

Daily administration of Apoquel as chewable tablets allows for consistent management of the symptoms, providing relief to pets suffering from these conditions. The formulation is tailored for ease of administration and ensures that dogs receive the necessary dosage to effectively reduce their discomfort.

Other options, such as an anti-cough syrup, wound healing ointment, and nutritional supplements, serve different purposes that do not align with the primary uses of Apoquel, which focuses on alleviating itchiness rather than cough suppression, wound care, or nutritional enhancement.
