The total volume of albumin solution to be administered is dependent upon the veterinarian s assessment of the individual dog and the accompanying clinical syndrome. The goal of albumin supplementation in hypoalbuminemic dogs should be to raise plasma albumin to a maintenance level of 2.0-2.5 gm/dL. It is recommended in
Decreases in total protein and albumin are common in dogs with severe acute pancreatitis and other causes of peritonitis due to albumin loss into the peritoneal effusion. However, the pathogenesis may vary and there are many other differential diagnoses for decreased albumin, including:
Canine Serum Albumin Updated September 2024 Example and price comparison (as of December 2024) If you have a 50 (22.7kg) dog with an albumin of 1.2 g/dL and the goal is to raise the albumin to 2 g/dL: Canine albumin dose = 326ml of 5% lyophilized albumin. The cost for 3 vials of albumin is $1431.

Treating significant hypoalbuminemia (albumin 2.0 mg/dL) in dogs requires careful consideration of each available albumin product. Albumin performs many important functions in the body, including maintaining colloid oncotic pressure and scavenging free radicals. The bulk of total body albumin is distributed within the interstitial space.
