Unfortunately, by law it is illegal for the experts at Boop by Petco to give the dose information for any drug without seeing the animal in person first. That's because doing so requires a veterinary client patient relationship which cannot be achieved via an internet forum. In addition, the experts cannot say for certain if a specific drug is safe for your dog. You need to take Demi into the vet who can prescribe Meloxicam to him and can give him the correct dose.

That does seem quite high. In my drug handbook, the reported dose is 0.1mg/kg. For a 120 pound dog, this is 5mg. I would ask your vet to re-calculate the dose or choose a different NSAID all together. Personally, I don't like using meloxicam in large breed dogs and I use carprofen, deracoxib, or firocoxib.

No, I would not give this to Dixie. It may be the incorrect dose for her, and you can accidentally do harm to her by giving her it. I would have her seen by a vet first thing Monday. Until then, I would rest her and keep her as quiet as possible. You can give her glucosamine and chondrotin sulfate supplements which help with joint problems such as arthritis.

Thanks for using Boop by Petco! While in theory it should be ok, this is not a common combination of medications so it’s effect has not been really studied. For that reason, I would have you checked with your prescribing veterinarian to ensure they are ok with that as they know Poppy’s medical history. Have a great day!

These drugs, if given at appropriate dosages, should not interact. I guess cerenia was given for vomiting, so meloxicam is not indicated though. Why did you ketoconazole? It is not indicated in pancreatitis cases.
