Serum symmetric dimethylarginine (SDMA) and creatinine are commonly used biomarkers of renal function in cats. We hypothesize that the serum analytes creatinine and SDMA are equally effective at detecting impaired renal function caused by meloxicam-induced renal injury in cats. Our primary objective was to compare serum concentrations of SDMA and creatinine in cats before, during, and after induction of renal injury from repeated dosages of meloxicam in the context of a small pilot study.
