Recuvyra: Highlights to Consider
• Indicated for the control of postoperative pain associated with surgical procedures in dogs
• Transdermal fentanyl solution
• Approved by the FDA for use in dogs only; absorption characteristics of skin varies greatly between species
Recuvyra'• A single dose to the skin on the dorsal scapular area "
no need to clip hair
• Has a special syringe and applicator Wear gloves and face shield when handling
• Dries rapidly in 5 minutes
• It is absorbed through the skin -> does not undergo 1st pass through the liver
