I have a ferret with CHF. He does well for the most part with oral
furosemide. When he does have a breathing crises I have nitroglycerine
cream that is put in his ear. It takes affect in about two minutes. I
also need to keep him separated from his friends during treatment and
for about 12 hours after the last dose. Directions are every 8 hours
for two days. His ears get pretty gummy. This is my only experience
with dransdermal meds.
