Oral GS-441524 is an antiviral medication used primarily for the treatment of feline infectious peritonitis (FIP) in cats. This compound is a nucleoside analog, which works by inhibiting the replication of the virus responsible for FIP, thereby reducing the viral load and alleviating symptoms. Administered orally, GS-441524 has shown promising results in both clinical studies and real-world applications, offering a lifeline for cats suffering from this previously fatal disease. The medication is generally well-tolerated, but close monitoring by a veterinarian is recommended to ensure the correct dosage and to manage any potential side effects.

"FIP" refers to Feline Infectious Peritonitis (FIP), which is a viral disease caused by certain strains of feline coronavirus (FCoV).
Cause: FIP is caused by a mutation of the feline coronavirus (FCoV). Most cats with FCoV do not develop FIP, but in some cases, the virus mutates into a form that causes FIP.
Transmission: FCoV is commonly spread through feces and oral-fecal transmission, often in multi-cat environments such as shelters or catteries. Once a cat is infected with FCoV, it may develop either a mild, self-limiting form of the disease or progress to FIP.
Forms of FIP: FIP presents in two main forms: effusive (wet) and non-effusive (dry). Effusive FIP involves the accumulation of fluid in body cavities, such as the abdomen or chest. Non-effusive FIP is characterized by granulomatous lesions in various organs.
