The European Commission has granted marketing authorization to Boehringer Ingelheim for SENVELGO (active ingredient: velagliflozin), a groundbreaking development in the treatment of feline diabetes across Europe. SENVELGO stands out as the world’s first once-daily liquid oral solution specifically designed to reduce hypoglycemia in cats with non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus.

This innovative medication simplifies the management of feline diabetes, enabling cat owners to easily integrate the treatment into their daily routines. Administered once daily either with food or directly into the cat’s mouth, SENVELGO has demonstrated effectiveness in improving diabetic symptoms in cats, reducing elevated blood glucose levels, and minimizing the risk of clinical hypoglycemic events. Its liquid form is preferred by cats and owners alike, based on various studies.

Unfortunately, a high proportion of diabetic cats are euthanized within the first year of diagnosis, partly due to the complexity of their care. SENVELGO addresses these challenges by offering a more accessible and efficient treatment option.
