Thanks Hideyo! Our vet confirmed what you said about developing immunity to interferon. THANK-YOU for this information. She also said the feline version is hard to get and very expensive. Can you provide any insight?

Hi, I just want to let everyone know how impressd I am with how effective interferon works for URIs that is caused by virurs. I have been using feline interferon for many things (felk, FIP, FIV treatment) for the past year or two. Additionally, whenever my kitties have severe or mild URIs, I started using feline interferon right away mainly because I don't want it to develop something more serious like FIP as I noticed that many times, URIs are one of the very first signs I saw in my FIP cases. Anyway, my 5 year old Frankie had developed chronic URIs ever since he received 3 combo vaccinations when he was about 6 months old. anyway, since yesterday, he had developed very severe URIs - green and thick discharge from his nose which would not stop running. He did not act ill fortunately.. but looking at it, I got very scared that reminded me how my Simba who had passed away from FIP a couple of months ago started his symptoms. but anyway, I gave him two shots of interferon yesterday and today, and by tonight,, his nose seems to be soooo clear, which is amazing. I just wanted to let everyone know in case you may have a simiar situation in the future. good nite, Hideyo
