Zimeta (Dipyrone Injection)

Zimeta (Dipyrone Injection) from Dechra is an NSAID (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug) prescribed for intravenous use to control pyrexia (fever) in horses. The only NSAID that has FDA approval for treatment against fever, Zimeta must be prescribed by a veterinarian. Clinical studies have shown Zimeta can be quick and effective against fever and that it is safe when used according to label instructions. Fever in horses is often a clinical sign secondary to other serious infections or complications, Zimeta is only indicated to reduce fever, not its potential underlying causes.
