Ozone Therapy In Pets -- How Is It Administered?


Ozone therapy is often used as an adjunct to traditional therapies. It’s also used in acute or chronic conditions. It can be administered to the body in several ways, with the route depending on the condition that is present.

     Intravenously by ozonating intravenous fluids -- This route is used for kidney and liver infections, Lyme disease, septicemia, and many more.

     Percolation of the ozone through olive oil and used as an inhalant in incubators -- This is indicated for the treatment of upper and lower respiratory tract infections

     Injected directly into the joints to treat local infections or for prolotherapy for problems involving the tendons and ligaments.

     Applied topically on wounds in the form of ozonated olive oil (other types of oils can be used). It can also be applied to the eyes, treat severe stomatitis in cats, and chronic periodontitis in dogs.

     As a urinary insufflation for chronic infections of the urinary tract.
