Mycophenolate Oral Liquid Compounded for Dogs and Cats

Overview – Mycophenolate Oral Liquid

Mycophenolate oral liquid is a compounded preparation made specifically for dogs and cats based on a veterinarian’s prescription. Veterinarians may prescribe mycophenolate when a customized strength, concentration, or dosage form is needed to support individual patient requirements. Because many companion animals struggle with commercially available capsules or tablets, this liquid option helps support accurate dosing and smoother administration at home.

This compounded medication is not a substitute for any FDA-approved product. Instead, it is prepared when a prescriber determines that no suitable commercial alternative fits the patient’s specific needs.

Key Features of Mycophenolate Oral Liquid

• Custom Strengths Available: Prepared in the exact concentration prescribed for each individual patient.


• Flexible Liquid Form: A smooth oral liquid designed to support accurate measuring and easier administration.


• Pet-Friendly Flavor Options: Multiple flavor choices help encourage acceptance, especially for pets that dislike solid medications.


• High-Quality Ingredients: Compounded using pharmaceutical-grade components sourced from FDA-registered suppliers.


• Fast Turnaround Times: Prepared quickly to help support timely care for pets under a veterinarian’s direction.

Why Veterinarians May Prescribe Mycophenolate

Mycophenolate is an immunosuppressant that veterinarians may include as part of an individualized plan when they determine a patient requires this type of therapy. In clinical practice, mycophenolate can be used within combination protocols to help manage a variety of immune-mediated conditions in dogs, as guided by the veterinarian’s judgment and current literature.

In cats, published pharmacokinetic data suggest that its usefulness may be more limited, so veterinarians may reserve its use for carefully selected cases. As with all compounded medications, this oral liquid is prepared only when a prescriber determines that an appropriate commercial product is not available or not suitable for that specific patient.

Important: We do not make claims of safety or effectiveness for treating specific diseases. All medical decisions, including suitability and dosing, must be made solely by the prescribing veterinarian.

Other Available Dosage Forms

If your patient requires a different form, we also compound mycophenolate in:

• Mycophenolate Mofetil Capsules – An option for dogs and cats that easily tolerate solid oral medications.


• Mycophenolate Mofetil Flavored Chewables – A treat-like choice designed to support compliance in picky patients.

How to Administer

• Use as Directed: Administer mycophenolate oral liquid exactly as prescribed by your veterinarian.


• Shake Before Use: Shake the bottle well before each dose to help ensure a uniform suspension.


• Measuring the Dose: Use the supplied oral syringe or other measuring device provided by your pharmacy to draw up the prescribed amount.


• Storage: Store in a tightly closed container according to the label instructions. Keep away from excessive heat, moisture, and direct light.


• Missed Dose: If you miss a dose, give it as soon as you remember unless it is close to the next scheduled dose. In that case, skip the missed dose. Do not double the dose.

Important Notes & Safety Information

• Prescription Required: A valid prescription from a licensed veterinarian is required.


• Compounded Medication: This is a compounded preparation and is not approved by the FDA. It is intended for use in veterinary patients when, in the prescriber’s professional judgment, no suitable commercial product is available.


• For Individual Patients Only: Each prescription is prepared specifically for the individual animal and is not intended for resale.


• Hazardous Drug Precautions: Mycophenolate is classified as a hazardous drug. Caregivers should avoid direct contact with the liquid, wear gloves if possible when drawing up or administering doses, and wash hands thoroughly after handling.


• Household Safety: Keep this and all medications out of reach of children and other animals. If accidental ingestion occurs, contact a veterinarian or poison control center right away.


• Vaccination Considerations: Because mycophenolate is used as an immunosuppressant, veterinarians may choose to avoid modified live vaccines during therapy and will provide guidance on appropriate vaccination schedules.
