Hi everyone, I have never joined a chat forum of any kind and have been a nurse for over 30 years but need help.Adopted 2 kittens from animal shelter 2 yrs ago. One has been diagnosed with feline herpes in January after being treated with steroid for upper respiratory infection. This then caused eye lesions.Was treated with a antiviral and neomycin poly B for eyes and lysine 500 mg chew 2 times daily. No improvement and oral med was changed to famciclovir 125 mg 2 times daily. No improvement. Sent to eye specialist and Idoxuridine eye drops were ordered continued on famciclovir. Little improvement and Interferon eye drops were added.Started to develope small lesion on nose. Eyes lesions did improve but nose lesion increased in size. Sent to animal dermatology biopsy done on nose. Inconclusive perhaps because of being on famciclovir for so long. Found mouth lesions mostly on tongue. Famciclovir increased to 3 times daily and muricin ointment applied to nose daily. 2 wks later no improvement. Ointment changed to Synotic drops daily, 3 wks later lesion bigger. Tongue lesions better. Famciclovir stopped and Imiquimoid cream started last Wednesday to be applied 3 times weekly. 4 doses now. Lt eye started to have thick drainage last 3 days. Squinting again. called dermatologist and famciclovir started back up today. Lysine continues.This has been going on for 6 months. Other cat had cold symptoms as well as another older cat but they cleared up on their own without problems. Not sure where to go if this cream does not work. Would appreciate any suggestIons from those out there with kitties who have feline herpes and especially skin lesions. Through all of this my Lloyd has been loving and mostly easy to attend to. Want so much to help him.
