CaliciX™ Max – High-Potency EIDD-1931 for Severe Feline Calicivirus Disease
CaliciX™ Max is a high-strength systemic antiviral capsule formulated for cats suffering from severe, refractory, or high-viral-load feline calicivirus (FCV) infections, where standard-dose therapy is insufficient.
 
Each capsule contains: 30 mg of pure EIDD-1931
 
The active antiviral metabolite of molnupiravir, designed for systemic viral suppression in advanced disease states.
 
This formulation is intended for use under veterinary supervision in cats requiring higher antiviral exposure due to disease severity, body weight, or poor response to conventional therapy.

Indications & Target Conditions
CaliciX™ Max is designed to support treatment of severe FCV-associated diseases, including:
Severe Oral & Oropharyngeal Disease.
 
  • Severe Feline Chronic Gingivostomatitis (FCGS)
  • Caudal Stomatitis with extensive caudal oral inflammation
  • Ulcerative Stomatitis unresponsive to dental extractions
  • Deep Lingual Ulceration (Viral Glossitis)
  • Multifocal Buccal, Labial, and Palatal Ulcers
 
These conditions are characterized by:
  • Extreme oral pain
  • Profuse drooling (ptyalism)
  • Difficulty eating or swallowing (dysphagia)
  • Weight loss and cachexia
  • Persistent halitosis and oral bleeding
 
Systemic & Virulent FCV Disease
 
CaliciX™ Max may be considered in cases with evidence of high systemic viral burden, including:
  • Virulent Systemic Feline Calicivirus (VS-FCV)
  • FCV-associated fever and severe lethargy
  • Facial or limb edema
  • Lameness
  • Pulmonary involvement or pneumonia
  • Hepatic or pancreatic enzyme elevation
  • Severe inflammatory response with rapid clinical decline
 
Refractory or Relapsing Disease
  • Cats with persistent FCV shedding
  • Post-extraction FCGS with incomplete response
  • Chronic stomatitis with repeated relapse after steroids or immunosuppressive therapy
  • Large or obese cats requiring higher per-dose antiviral exposure
 
Why High-Strength CaliciX?
CaliciX's EIDD-1931 is the active antiviral form of molnupiravir and demonstrates:
  • Substantially higher intrinsic antiviral potency than its prodrug
  • Predictable systemic exposure without reliance on metabolic conversion
  • Broad activity against RNA viruses, including calicivirus
 
In severe FCV disease, higher systemic concentrations may be required to:
  • Rapidly reduce viral replication
  • Suppress ongoing mucosal and systemic viral injury
  • Support recovery in cats with advanced inflammation and pain
 
The 30 mg strength allows veterinarians to achieve these targets with fewer capsules per dose, improving accuracy, compliance, and treatment feasibility.
 
Designed for Severe Cases & Larger Cats
 
CaliciX™ Max is particularly suited for:
  • Cats weighing ≥5 kg with severe disease
  • Patients requiring 4–6 mg/kg BID dosing
  • Situations where multiple low-strength capsules would otherwise be required
 
This strength supports step-up antiviral therapy while maintaining precise dosing control.

Precision Antiviral Therapy, When It matters most CaliciX™ Max represents the highest-potency option in the CaliciX™ antiviral line, offering veterinarians a systemic antiviral tool for the most challenging calicivirus cases.When standard dosing is no longer enough, CaliciX™ Max provides a controlled, high-strength antiviral option designed to support stabilization, recovery, and improved quality of life in cats with severe FCV disease.

الكمية

  • 1. Active Ingredient

    • EIDD-1931 (β-D-N4-hydroxycytidine) – 30 mg

    • Active antiviral metabolite of molnupiravir (EIDD-2801)

    • RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) mutagenic nucleoside analogue

    2. Pharmacological Class

    • Direct-acting antiviral (DAA)

    • Broad-spectrum RNA virus inhibitor

    • Viral error catastrophe inducer

    Active Ingredient

    • EIDD-1931 (β-D-N4-hydroxycytidine) – 30 mg per capsule
    • Pharmacologically equivalent to ~133 mg molnupiravir (EIDD-2801)

    3. Mechanism of Action

    EIDD-1931 is intracellularly phosphorylated to its active triphosphate form and incorporated into viral RNA during replication. This results in:

    • Accumulation of transition mutations

    • Loss of viral genome integrity

    • Suppression of productive viral replication

    This mechanism is host-independent, does not rely on viral proteases, and has a high genetic barrier to resistance.

    4. Indications

    CaliciX™ Max is intended for use in cats with severe or refractory feline calicivirus (FCV)–associated disease, including:

    Severe Oral Disease

    • Severe Feline Chronic Gingivostomatitis (FCGS)

    • Caudal stomatitis with extensive caudal oral inflammation

    • Ulcerative stomatitis unresponsive to dental extractions

    • Viral glossitis with deep lingual ulceration

    • Multifocal buccal, labial, and palatal ulcers

    Systemic & Virulent FCV Disease

    • Virulent systemic feline calicivirus (VS-FCV)

    • FCV-associated fever and lethargy

    • Facial and limb edema

    • Lameness

    • Pneumonia or respiratory compromise

    • Hepatic or pancreatic inflammatory involvement

    Refractory / High-Risk Cases

    • Post-extraction FCGS with incomplete response

    • Persistent FCV shedding

    • Relapsing disease following corticosteroids or immunosuppressants
