Summary of Drugs for Canine Parvovirus
Abstract
Canine parvovirus (CPV) infection is a widespread ailment among young dogs globally, characterized by high morbidity, mortality, and significant infectivity. Due to its grim prognosis, it is often likened to canine "cancer" with a medium-term mortality rate of 46.43% and late-stage mortality reaching up to 100%.Current treatment modalities primarily encompass fluid therapy, antiemetics, antimicrobial medications, pain relievers, and enteral nutrition. However, the absence of specific internationally recognized medications necessitates substantial care expenses. This review aims to elucidate recent advancements in pharmacological interventions for mitigating CPV infection symptoms, underscoring the potential of novel pharmaceutical technologies in veterinary medicine to enhance clinical outcomes for afflicted animals and their caregivers，lay a theoretical foundation for the development of specific drugs.
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a preprint, done in animal, not in people. Its evidence level is 5 of 5 (Very low · case / narrative / animal / in vitro / in silico). Case reports, narrative reviews, and animal, cell or computer-model studies give the weakest evidence for human health.
