Canine distemper treatment cost

After a general dog is infected with canine distemper, the initial basic treatment is one week, and the cost is usually related to the dog's size and weight, because the dog's medication is based on their weight. Usually, the cost of injections for smaller dogs is 150-200 per day, and for medium and large dogs, it is about 250-350. If infusion is performed and more effective drugs are used, the cost per day will be around 400-500. The specific cost still needs to be determined according to the dog’s condition.

How to deal with canine distemper in dogs:

1. Give it daily infusion and injection treatment according to the doctor’s prescription. You can inject it with monoclonal antibodies and Interferon, and also feed the dog some food that helps improve immunity.

2. The environment where dogs live and the places they frequently visit must be thoroughly cleaned and disinfected every day. Keep the environment clean to prevent sick dogs from contracting other diseases.

3. Dog care should be strengthened every day. For example, combing, cleaning eyes, giving eye drops to dogs, etc. Note, be sure to keep your dog warm and never let it catch a cold.
