About Feline Infectious Peritonitis (FIP)

Feline Infectious Peritonitis (FIP) is a serious disease associated with feline coronavirus infection. Diagnosis and management require veterinary evaluation, and treatment decisions depend on the individual cat’s clinical condition.

Veterinary research has examined several antiviral compounds in relation to FIP, including molnupiravir and GS-441524. These compounds differ in their pharmacology, clinical evidence, and safety considerations.
