Treatments
How do I add my pet's flea and tick treatment and/or deworming?
In PadsPass, a treatment is any action taken to prevent, manage, or resolve a health condition that is not a vaccination and not a diagnostic test. Treatments can be preventive or therapeutic.
What counts as a treatment in PadsPass:
- Medications and preventives: dewormers, flea and tick products, heartworm preventives, antibiotics, pain medications
- Procedures and therapies: wound care, dental treatments, bandage changes, physiotherapy, allergy injections
- Short courses and one‑time interventions: steroids, anti‑nausea meds, ear and eye treatments
How PadsPass records treatments:
- What: product or procedure name and strength or concentration
- When: date given and, if applicable, start and end dates for a course
- How much: dose and frequency
- Who: prescribing or administering clinic or veterinarian
- Proof: attachments such as labels, invoices, or discharge notes
How this differs from other record types in PadsPass:
- Vaccination: immunizations with defined schedules and expirations
- Test: diagnostics with a result and collection date
- Treatment: action taken to prevent or address a condition, often with dosing or care instructions
Tip: Add treatments as soon as they’re administered so PadsPass can surface accurate travel and care guidance alongside your pet’s vaccinations and tests.
