Are generic Cerenia and compounded prednisolone effective for pets?
I have used the compounded Cerenia in one case before with success. If it is from a reputable compounding pharmacy, I wouldn't have concerns. I haven't had any issues with compounded prednisolone and I think it would be fine and effective.

My dog's allergy flare-ups: Is prednisolone a short-term fix?
Hi, thanks for using Boop by Petco! Steroid use, dosing and the taper needs to be decided upon by a Vet that has examined the pet. We can not prescribe drugs or tell you how to use a drug because we legally are not allowed to. I am sorry. I recommend calling your Vet and asking them since they have a legal relationship with you. Have a great day!

Cat prednisolone: Should I start before or after my vacation?
I would wait until you return to start the course of prednisolone for Mistoffelees. It's better to do the full course than start it and stop it before returning to it when you get back. Best of luck, I hope this helps and enjoy your vacation!

My cat has asthma: Which is better, prednisolone or prednisone?
Hello, and thanks for your question. These are very similar medications, but prednisolone is best for cats, as they are better at digesting that than prednisone. Prednisone isn't harmful, but prednisolone is better in cats. Hope this helps!

My old cat has gingivitis & lost a tooth. Can I give prednisolone?
Unfortunately, by law it is illegal for the experts at Boop by Petco to recommend using 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 Rudy. I strongly urge you not to give him the prednisone, as they can only be given to cats under specific situations and if they are heathy. Give his vet a call to let them know he is in pain, and you can see if they can prescribe some pain medication for him. Best of luck.
