Hi so ceaser was back at the vets today His epilepsy pills are not working his fits have returned with a vengence. He now has a urinary tract and bowel infection and is on antibiotics. The vet is baffled as to why his pills have stopped working.
Thanks for using Boop by Petco! I do not think that you are being selfish at all. You care about him which is good. It is common for dogs with epilepsy to eventually need more medications added to their anti-seizure medication protocols. There are several anti-seizure medications that can be considered including phenobarbital, potassium bromide, Keppra, zonisamide, among many others. I would encourage you to discuss with your veterinarian about other anti-seizure medications. Often times dogs with epilepsy respond favorably to other medications. Good luck and have a great day!

My Labrador retriever has sever epilepsy, and I can't afford a vet visit for the medication whats can I do?
I'm very sorry to hear that your dog has epilepsy! If he has severe or frequent seizures, then he definitely does need to be on prescription medication to help control them. Legally, we cannot prescribe medication for any pet without first doing an in-person exam, so this is not something that can be done over the internet. So I'm afraid there's really no alternative except to take him to a veterinarian in your area to be seen, so he can be started on medication to help control the seizures. There is no reason that this should need to be a particularly expensive visit - most vets are very willing to work within the budget you have, as long as you let them know that you have financial constraints. If you don't think you can afford even the cost of the office visit +/- some basic lab work (which may be recommended prior to starting on meds), you could try calling your local shelter or humane society to see if they have any resources available to help pet owners in your position.

Hi there and thanks for using Boop by Petco! In addition to medication provided by your veterinarian, there is a special diet you can place Jig on that has been proven to help reduce the frequency of seizure activity in dogs. The food is called Purina Pro Plan Neurocare and may be available through your veterinarian. It can also be found through online retailers but does require a prescription from your veterinarian to obtain. I hope this helps and thanks again for posting!

3 yr 45 days old german shepherd. He had 11 seizures in 3 days in a gap of 4-6 hrs. Seizures last for 2-3 mins. He is on phenobarbital. Blood reports are normal. Eats normally. Seeing a vet hasnt been fruitful. Please help.
Poor Oscar! Seizures can be so frustating to deal with at times! There is a variety of other anti-seizure medications that can be added to Oscar's anti-seizure protocol. Other commonly used drugs include levetiracetam, potassium bromide and zonizamide. You may discuss with your veterinarian extending his anti-seizure medication protocol. If he has another long seizure like that, he should be seen by a veterinarian as soon as possible as seizure activity must be stopped promptly to avoid long lasting neurologic effects. Best of luck with him. He is so handsome!

Pomeranian(2y/o, 7lbs) has concerning episodes. He lays down, drools, whimpers, becomes dazed&unresponsive. Paces around with weak rear end&tail between legs/legs dragging. Started when he was 1y/o. Vets thought: liver shunt, IBD, anxiety & seizures/
It sounds like his seizures are not well controlled. What you are describing is partial (focal) seizures. I suggest you speak to your vet so they can suggest another medication. Phenobarbital is the drug I would suggest using. ( https://veterinarypartner.vin.com/default.aspx?pid=19239&id=4951440 )
