In the long term, there is a thought the chronic famotidine use may decrease some nutrient absorption and lead to excessive gastric acid production with possible esophageal acid reflux if it is discontinued. However, most internal medicine specialists still preferentially recommend famotidine over other antacids (such as omeprazole/Prilosec) for chronic use as it is a bit more "mild" in its mechanism of action. I know you mentioned changing foods, but consider discussing a diet trial with a hydrolyzed "hypoallergenic" diet with Brody's vet. If he has a degree of a food allergy or inflammatory bowel disease causing his vomiting and skipping of meals, these hydrolyzed diets fed for 2-3 months can remove a lot of antigenic stimulation in the GI tract and potentially prevent a lot of GI upset.

Yes, you can give 10mg of Pepcid (famotidine). It should be given once a day at the same time each day. You can give it for 14 days straight and then stop. Hopefully the problem will have resolved by then.

Carpeofen is not recommended with pancreatitis as it can make the condition worse, in some severe cases steroids can be prescribed. i would recommend adding a few medications to what she is getting: Cerenia, Famotidine, Omeprazole. these 3 can help significantly. i would also recommend switching from Amoxicillin to Metronidazole. she of course needs to be on a special prescription low fat diet such as Royal Canin gastrointestinal low fat.

You could try some Pepcid. If he weighs less than 10 pounds give 5mg once a day. If he weighs if he is 10-20 pounds you can give him 5mg twice a day. If he is 20-40 pounds give him 10mg twice a day. If he is over 40 pounds you can give him 15-20mg twice a day. there are a lot of things that can cause vomiting so I would strongly encourage you to see if the humane society can help you with any treatment or low cost medicine. I hope this helps!

I'm wondering if you mean omeprazole, as there is no drug that I am aware of called amorazole. Omeprazole is a prescription only medication for dogs, and you would need a prescription from a vet in order to get it, even when ordering it online. While there are online pet pharmacies, prescription meds require the vet sending in a prescription before sending it to you. I would speak to your vet about any medications Tilly may need, and they will prescribe them if necessary and appropriate. Unfortunately, it is illegal for the experts to prescribe any medications to our users. I hope this helps!
