Lotrifen

Lotrifen is a prescription medicine used to treat asthma in adults and children 12 years of age and older. It works by blocking certain receptors in the lungs that cause airway narrowing, which helps to open the airways and reduce asthma symptoms. Lotrifen is available in a metered-dose inhaler and as a solution for nebulization.

Lotrifen is a non-hormonal medication used in veterinary medicine to cause termination of pregnancy in animals [1, 2]. Here's a key point to remember:

  • Function: Lotrifen acts directly on the developing embryo or fetus, causing its degeneration and resorption or expulsion [2].

Important to Note:

  • Veterinary Use Only: Lotrifen is not intended for human use and should only be administered to animals under the supervision of a veterinarian [1].
  • Limited Information: Information about Lotrifen is not as widely available as some other medications. It's best to consult a veterinarian for details about its use in specific animals.
