Please can you tell me the dosages of the following drugs for a 30.5 kg dog and how many litres of Aqupharm you would use cerenia omperazple ranitidine buprecare prednisone (predindale) synthadon marbocyl mycophenolate zofran melt anivit vomend co
Unfortunately, we are not permitted to give out drug dosages without a veterinarian - client - pet relationship. If you are seeking this information, I would obtain it through a veterinarian in person or through a veterinary formulary such as Plumb's or Merck. Hope this makes sense.

My dog was diagnosed with CHF. His abdomen is still swollen. Lasix 40mg BID was reduced to 20 BID due to slight increase in labs for kidneys. His coughing is worse with the lowered dose. Should I ask the vet to change meds? He’s also on Pimobendan co
Hi there, you could try increasing it to 30 mg twice a day. In general a standard dose is 2mg/kg twice a day. If frusemide should not work , a new diuretic could be added such as spironolactone. I would recommend to discuss this with your vet. Hope this helps !

Hi! Two weeks ago I took my maltese male dog to his vet cause he had this weird cough, turns out his heart expanded cause his arteries are working harder to pump the blood in/out. He was given enalapril 2.5, furosemide 20, cipro 250 and prednisone 5m
Thank you for contacting Boop by Petco with your question about Troy. Poor boy! Do not give him extra enalapril. It sounds like he may need more furosemide. Dogs with heart disease have fluid build up in their lungs because the heart doesn't pump correctly causing the coughing. Furosemide is a diuretic, which means it gets rid of excess fluid helping stop the cough. Take him back into the vet to get more furosemide. I hope this helps!

Hello Doc, My dog is on doxy and is under treatment for tick fever. After 3 days on doxy he started showing some improvent but suddenly hes front leg started to swell and is gone upto chest. It's soft liquid filled under chest skin. As due to tick fe
Hi and thank you for posting on Boop by Petco! Gosh, I am sorry to hear this with Scooby. Lasix will not help much with edema that is because of an inflammatory response such as a bacterial infection. It will however work for subcutaneous edema or fluid in the chest caused from heart failure or liver failure. I would advise against giving anything that was not directed or prescribed by your veterinarian. I would try and see your veterinarian as soon as he/she gets back into the office for an exam or you may also visit an emergency veterinarian for an exam. The swelling may be due to the infection or perhaps evidence of liver or heart disease. It is important to determine what the cause is so the proper treatment can be administered. Thanks for posting and best of luck to you and Scooby.

Where do I get cat flavored meds?
You will need to have flavored medications made at a special pharmacy called a compounding pharmacy. Your vet may know of a local compounding pharmacy that may make flavored medications, so I would check with them. If they do not have a suggestion, I have been very pleased with Road Runner Pharmacy ( https://www.roadrunnerpharmacy.com/ ). Good luck! I hope that was helpful and answered your question. Thanks for using Boop by Petco.
