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!

How to get dog prednisone for allergies without frequent vet visits?
Unfortunately no. It is illegal for us to prescribe medication from this site, we need to see Dixie in person in order to prescribe medication. You will need to continue to see your vet in order to get her prednisone. Best of luck.

My dog takes 2mg Prednicare daily for allergies. Is this dose okay?
Hello. I am not sure if Apoquel or Cytopoint are available in the UK, but they have worked very well for many itchy dogs here. If not, chronic steroid use may be the only thing to keep her comfortable ( have you tried Atopica ?). She should be on a good omega 6 fish oil supplement & possibly a hypoallergenic diet. Antihistamines do not always work, but some dogs will require less steroids with antihistamines like loratadine, cetirizine or hydroxyzine. Sometimes you have to weigh the risks of a medication vs. the benefits. As long as you closely monitor Lily's health for the most notorious side effects with regular blood work, then any problems can be addressed very early. Thanks for using Boop by Petco.

My dog has severe allergies. Can he safely take multiple medications?
Fighting secondary skin infections and allergies is tough. Drugs like prednisone and Apoquel are used to control inflammation. In some cases, we add a drug in an effort to taper prednisone if long term immunosuppression is needed. Ideally, long term immunosuppressives should be avoided but in some cases are needed. You should consider discussing referral to a veterinary dermatologist for intradermal skin testing.

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.
