Feline Infectious Peritonitis (FIP) is a serious condition that requires prompt treatment. One of the most commonly prescribed medications for FIP is GS-441524, which can be compounded into different forms. At Avrio Pharmacy, we offer Liquid oral suspension GS-441524 and tablet GS-441524, both in 50mg doses for just $9 each. So, what’s the difference between the two, and which is right for your cat?
Liquid GS-441524 vs. Tablet GS-441524: Key Differences
-
Ease of Administration
- Liquid GS-441524: Many cats are picky about taking tablets or tablets and getting them to swallow a tablet can be a challenge. The liquid form can make it easier to administer medication, especially for cats that have difficulty swallowing tablets or refuse to take them. The liquid can be administered with a syringe or dropper, making it less stressful for both the cat and the owner.
- Tablet GS-441524: For cats that tolerate tablets, the tablet form can be an easy option. However, some cats may resist swallowing tablets, which can create a stressful medication time for both pets and their owners.
-
Flexibility in Dosing
- Liquid GS-441524: The liquid form offers greater flexibility for adjusting doses. If your veterinarian recommends a slight dosage change, it can be easier to measure and adjust the liquid to suit your cat’s specific needs. This makes it an ideal option for cats that require very precise dosing.
- Tablet GS-441524: While tablets provide a consistent dosage, they don’t offer the same flexibility as liquids. However, we offer 4-scored tablets, which allow for more precise dosing if your veterinarian suggests a dose adjustment. This feature makes it easier to split the tablet accurately to meet your cat’s specific needs, reducing the risk of inaccuracies when adjusting the dose.
-
Ideal for Sick Cats with Poor Appetite
- Liquid GS-441524: Sick cats often lose their appetite and refuse food, which can make it difficult to administer tablets hidden in food. Liquid medication can be easier to give to cats who aren’t eating well.
- Tablet GS-441524: When a cat has a poor appetite, getting them to take a tablet, even when hidden in food, can be a challenge. Tablets may also be harder to administer to cats that have dental or oral issues.
-
Palatability
- Liquid GS-441524: Cats often find flavored liquids more appealing than tablets. The liquid can be flavored (tuna, chicken, marshmallow), upon request to ensure that it is more like a treat than a traditional medicine, making medication time a bit easier for both you and your cat.
- Tablet GS-441524: While some cats may tolerate tablets well, others may not enjoy swallowing them. Crushing or hiding them in food can sometimes be messy, and there’s always the risk of your cat not consuming the full dose.

GS-441524 Pricing and Availability
Both the Liquid GS-441524 and tablet GS-441524 are priced at an affordable $9 per 50mg dose, making both options cost-effective. The choice between liquid and tablet ultimately comes down to what works best for you and your cat.
Which Option Is Right for Your Cat?
Choosing between Liquid GS-441524 and tablet GS-441524 comes down to your cat’s preferences and your ability to administer medication. If your cat is a picky eater or has trouble with tablets, the liquid form could be the best choice. However, if your cat is comfortable with tablets and you prefer a traditional method, the tablet form might be a better fit.
