Read this case report from VCA Dallas to learn how hemoperfusion played a critical role in the recovery of a 7-month-old Bernedoodle following an estimated 4,800 mg ibuprofen overdose.
Watch this webinar now to hear from a leader in veterinary extracorporeal therapies how hemoperfusion stands apart, offering faster, highly effective, and broader-spectrum toxin removal.
Traditional medical management is limited for treating severe toxicities. Many patients aren’t brought in for treatment until hours after ingestion, when the toxin has been fully absorbed into the bloodstream. In these cases, extracorporeal therapies (ECTs) should be considered to remove the toxin from the blood, to promote faster recovery and prevent long-term organ damage.
In this webinar, Jethro Forbes, DVM, DACVECC (Assistant Clinical Professor, Section of Emergency and Critical Care at Cornell University) shares his clinical experience treating toxicities with extracorporeal therapies, with a focus on carbon hemoperfusion. Dr. Forbes explains how hemoperfusion stands apart from other extracorporeal techniques, offering faster, highly effective, and broader-spectrum toxin removal.

Watch this webinar now to get a behind-the-scenes look at how AimaLojic’s proprietary hemoperfusion technology works.
Hemoperfusion (HP) is an effective treatment option for many toxicities commonly seen in veterinary practice today. Compared to standard medical management and other extracorporeal treatment options like dialysis and therapeutic plasma exchange, HP offers a fast and cost-effective solution to help prevent long-term organ damage in severely poisoned patients.

Title: Plasma Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drug Concentrations During Carbon Hemoperfusion in 18 Dogs with Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drug Toxicosis

Presented At: Renal Week 2025
A new study highlights the high clinical efficacy of carbon hemoperfusion (HP) for treating NSAID toxicosis in dogs. The study included 18 canine patients who ingested various NSAIDS (ibuprofen, carprofen, naproxen, meloxicam) and were treated with carbon HP alone or in combination with dialysis. Carbon HP significantly reduced NSAID concentrations in the plasma. Researchers also noted that carbon HP was more effective than dialysis in NSAID removal and recommended not using dialysis alone to treat these intoxications due to a less efficient extraction ratio.
Watch now learn how hemoperfusion compares to standard medical management and other extracorporeal therapies for treating ibuprofen toxicities.
Ibuprofen is a leading cause of small animal toxicity. Found in many over-the-counter medications and often manufactured with a sweet coating, ibuprofen is frequently ingested by dogs and cats. Due to its narrow margin of safety, and availability in large doses, ibuprofen overdoses can quickly escalate from mild to life-threatening.
In cases of severe intoxication, medical management alone is often not enough. To accelerate drug elimination and prevent long-term organ damage, hemoperfusion (HP) is an effective therapy to consider.
In this webinar, Etienne Escande, DVM walks through the principles of hemoperfusion, with a focus on treating severe ibuprofen toxicity. Attendees will learn how HP compares to standard medical management and other extracorporeal therapies, including therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE). Dr. Escande will also discuss a recent case in which HP played a critical role in his patient’s full recovery.

Rapid City, SD, April 4, 2025 – AimaLojic Animal Health is excited to welcome Dr. Larry Cowgill, DVM, PhD, DACVIM (Internal Medicine), as Medical Director.
A globally recognized leader in veterinary extracorporeal therapy (ECT), Dr. Cowgill will collaborate with the AimaLojic team to advance the use and development of its carbon hemoperfusion technology for treating severe toxicities in veterinary medicine
Hemoperfusion is an extracorporeal treatment technique in which blood is circulated outside the body through a filter to remove toxins and other undesired substances. This treatment offers a significant improvement over the current standard of care for severe toxicity, allowing for faster removal of toxins (as little as 90 minutes) to prevent long-term organ damage. Compared to other extracorporeal therapies such as dialysis and therapeutic plasma exchange, carbon hemoperfusion can also treat the widest range of common toxicities, often at a lower cost.
With over 45 years of experience in internal medicine and nephrology, Dr. Larry Cowgill brings a wealth of expertise in extracorporeal therapy (ECT) use and development. Recently retired as the head of nephrology and companion animal extracorporeal programs at both UC Davis and the UC Davis Veterinary Medical Center, San Diego, Dr. Cowgill pioneered the use of ECTs in veterinary medicine and has been a driving force in their ongoing advancement.
“We are very excited and grateful to have Dr. Larry Cowgill join our team”, shared Dr. Ronald Shape, CEO of AimaLojic. “His extensive knowledge and experience are an invaluable resource to the team and to the customers we serve.”
Dr. Cowgill added, “To extend my long-term interest in adsorptive therapies and as an observer of AimaLojic from its outset, I am thrilled to join this visionary team to extend the potential of carbon adsorption in veterinary therapeutics.
About AimaLojic:
AimaLojic Animal Health designs and manufactures carbon hemoperfusion technology for veterinary medicine applications, including the ReVive HP Complete Hemoperfusion System.

Listen to Jethro Forbes, DVM, DACVECC share his experience and insights on using ECTs to treat toxicities.
Extracorporeal blood purification is an emerging treatment for acute toxicity. Extracorporeal treatments (including hemodialysis, hemofiltration, therapeutic plasma exchange, and hemoperfusion) are gaining traction for their ability to improve outcomes and reduce long-term organ damage in severely poisoned patients, while also providing a cost-effective alternative to prolonged hospitalization.
In this webinar, Jethro Forbes, DVM, DACVECC (Assistant Clinical Professor, Section of Emergency and Critical Care at Cornell University) shares clinical insights into when and how to use extracorporeal therapies (ECT). He discusses decision-making strategies for selecting the right approach and best practices for utilizing (or referring patients for) this treatment.
