Goodbye Upset Stomachs: New Injectable for Dogs and Cats Makes Vomiting Relief Easier

If your dog or cat has ever been sick to their stomach, you know how stressful it can be—for them and for you. Vomiting is uncomfortable, upsetting, and sometimes a sign of a more serious health issue. Now, veterinarians have a new tool to help your furry friend feel better faster. Dechra has introduced Emeprev™, an FDA-approved injectable solution that helps prevent and treat vomiting in both dogs and cats.

What makes Emeprev™ stand out is that it is designed to be gentle during injections. It contains a preservative called benzyl alcohol, which also acts like a mild numbing agent. In studies with dogs, this formulation caused significantly less discomfort than older anti-vomiting medications. That means your pet can get relief without the added stress of a painful injection. For pet owners, that’s one less thing to worry about during vet visits.

Another major benefit is convenience. Emeprev™ does not require refrigeration, so veterinary clinics can store it easily and keep it ready for when your pet needs it most. This makes it faster and simpler for vets to administer the medication, meaning your pet gets relief sooner.

Emeprev™ works for a wide range of pets. It is indicated for preventing and treating sudden vomiting in dogs and for treating vomiting in cats. Whether your dog had an upset stomach after a change in diet, a cat is dealing with nausea from a mild illness, or vomiting is part of a more serious condition, Emeprev™ gives veterinarians a trusted option to help your pet feel better. The injection is safe when given under veterinary supervision, and it acts quickly to provide comfort and relief.

Beyond helping pets feel better physically, Emeprev™ also supports emotional comfort. Vomiting can be stressful for animals, causing them to hide, be anxious, or act restless. By managing vomiting effectively, this new solution can help your dog or cat stay calm, happy, and more relaxed during recovery.

For pet owners, the introduction of Emeprev™ represents peace of mind. It is backed by research, FDA-approved, and designed to provide the same trusted antiemetic effect as other leading medications, now with a formulation that reduces injection discomfort and simplifies veterinary care. It will be available for order at veterinary clinics starting in early 2026.

With Emeprev™, your pet can get relief from vomiting more comfortably and quickly, while you gain confidence that they are receiving high-quality care. If your pet experiences frequent vomiting or nausea, talk to your veterinarian to see if Emeprev™ could be part of their treatment plan. It’s a small shot that can make a big difference for pets and their owners alike.
