Abstract: Case reports, which are a report of a patient’s symptoms, diagnosis, treatment, and follow up, offer great assistance to a practitioner and compounding pharmacist in the oftentimes “trial and error” procedures of treating a patient that presents with a hard-to-treat diagnosis. Case reports serve as a footprint to success in many cases. This article discusses the case of a 16-year-old castrated male Himalayan feline diagnosed with hypertension secondary to polycystic kidney disease.
