Overview

Pimobendan is a medication used in veterinary medicine to treat heart conditions, specifically congestive heart failure (CHF) in dogs. It is classified as an inodilator, which means it has both inotropic (strengthens the heart's contraction) and vasodilatory (widens blood vessels) effects. Pimobendan is commonly prescribed to manage heart failure associated with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) or mitral valve disease (MVD) in dogs.
