Abstract

Objective:\ud To describe the use of therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) in the treatment of flunixin meglumine overdose in a cria.\ud \ud Case Summary:\ud A 3‐day‐old alpaca cria was diagnosed with ureteral obstruction and agenesis resulting in severe bilateral hydronephrosis. During hospitalization, the cria inadvertently received a flunixin meglumine overdose of >65 mg/kg. Here, we report the use of lipid emulsion and TPE to mitigate flunixin meglumine toxicosis. TPE appeared to prevent any flunixin‐induced kidney or gastrointestinal injury, even in a patient with congenital defects of the urinary tract.\ud \ud New Information Provided:\ud This is the first report of the use of TPE in a cria.
