Physical examination revealed rapid shallow breathing, pale mucous membranes, hypothermia, tachycardia, and hypotension. Thoracic radiography revealed mild pulmonary infiltration and pleural effusion. Despite conservative treatment, including oxygen therapy, and intravenous fluid, furosemide, and dopamine administration, the patient showed no improvement. After two sessions of intermittent hemodialysis, the cat\u2019s respiratory pattern and overall condition gradually improved; normal body temperature and blood pressure were achieved. The cat recovered fully and was discharged on the 11th day of hospitalization. This is the first report on the use of hemodialysis in the treatment of a cat with minoxidil toxicosis.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/vetsci11100487","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,10,9]],"date-time":"2024-10-09T07:39:52Z","timestamp":1728459592000},"page":"487","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["A Case Report of Successful Treatment of Minoxidil Toxicosis Using Hemodialysis in a Cat"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"11","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0004-9075-7900","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Woonchan","family":"Ahn","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Veterinary Internal Medicine, College of Veterinary Medicine, Kangwon National University, Chuncheon 24341, Republic of Korea"},{"name":"Smart Animal Hospital Sinsa, Seoul 06026, Republic of Korea"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Taeho","family":"Lee","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Smart Animal Hospital Sinsa, Seoul 06026, Republic of Korea"},{"name":"College of Veterinary Medicine, Chungnam National University, Daejeon 34134, Republic of Korea"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Soyoung","family":"Jung","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Smart Animal Hospital Sinsa, Seoul 06026, Republic of Korea"},{"name":"Department of Veterinary Internal Medicine, College of Veterinary Medicine, Konkuk University, Seoul 05029, Republic of Korea"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3783-8590","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Aryung","family":"Nam","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Veterinary Internal Medicine, College of Veterinary Medicine, Konkuk University, Seoul 05029, Republic of Korea"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,10,9]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"S142","DOI":"10.1097\/00005344-198000022-00007","article-title":"Efficacy of minoxidil in the treatment of severe hypertension in systemic disorders","volume":"2","author":"Bennett","year":"1980","journal-title":"J.
