What is Proin (Phenylpropanolamine HCL) used for?

Proin (Phenylpropanolamine HCL) is an oral medication used for the treatment of urinary incontinence in dogs or cats. It works by mimicking the actions of hormones responsible for constricting the urinary sphincter to prevent involuntary urination. This can also help to reduce blood pressure. The veterinarian may prescribe this medication to be used along with others or for the treatment of other conditions that are not listed here.

How should I use Proin (Phenylpropanolamine HCL)?

Proin (Phenylpropanolamine HCL) should be used strictly according to the veterinarian's instructions to get the most effective results from treatment. The normal dosage is one tablet administered orally every twelve hours, but the specific directions will depend on your pet's age, weight current health, and the severity of the animal's symptoms. These may be hidden in a meal or snack if your pet has difficulty taking them. The tablets are also chewable to increase the ease of administration. If a dose is missed, wait until the next dosage time to administer the next tablet. Do not double dose to make up for the missed dose. Always ask the veterinarian any questions you have about the medicine before beginning use to ensure the correct administration.

What are the side effects of Proin (Phenylpropanolamine HCL)?

Proin (Phenylpropanolamine HCL) may cause side effects in some pets including:

• Urinary retention

Contact the veterinarian if you experience any serious or worrying symptoms affecting your dog such as faintness, diarrhea, or signs of an allergic reaction including hives, skin rashes, swelling, or trouble breathing.
