Hello, My pup was recently diagnosed with severe SAS and prescribed Sotalol. On the other hand I was reading about other types of supplements for heart conditions, specifically pet wellbeing “young at heart” that I am interested in trying but is not
The biggest issue with herbal medications (which is what this supplement is) is a lack of controlled studies to prove that they work. Additionally, just like a man made medication, an herbal medication can also have side effects. Having said all of that, the specific product you refer to does contain Hawthorn which does have effects similar to sotolol. I don't know that its "better," or "safer" than sotolol because we just don't have the data to show that, whereas sotolol has been studied extensively regarding dosage, safety, efficacy, etc. In short, its reasonable to try this herbal medication but I would strongly advise that you do it under the care of a veterinarian who has been trained in herbal medicine. Here is a link to find a a veterinarian who has studied herbal remedies: https://www.vbma.org/us-members.html Keep in mind that SAS is a mechanical defect, and so no medication will "fix" it.. rather the goal of medical management is to minimize the problems that the h

My dog has tachycardia but I know which type of tachycardia. The symptoms are weaknesses and fainting( the vet explained he faints because his brain isn’t oxygenated enough) would that be Ventricular fibrillation (VF) or Ventricular Tachycardia? Also
Ventricular fibrillation is the heart issue that you see people on tv getting shocked to try to correct. If not corrected, it results in death within minutes. Ventricular tachycardia and atrial tachycardia are very serious problems. In some dogs it is only transient (meaning only lasting for a few seconds) or it can be chronic. If chronic, it often needs medications to convert back to a normal rhythm or at least decrease the heartrate. In humans, both of these conditions are treated with beta blockers to decrease the heartrate or in the hospital for IV medications and symptomatic treatment. Heart disease that causes these conditions has a poor prognosis for good quality of life for an extended period. There is the possibility that the heart rate is simply high and without an actual arrhythmia. This is common in dogs with heart failure that do not have enough function to pump blood throughout the body. I would need to see the ECG to tell. Through the rest of the weekend, try to limit

why would my vet prescribe sildenafil and theophylline a week before doing diagnostic tests?
We often treat a pet symptomatically before test results are available to us. I can only assume that your vet had enough evidence to suggest that Dee was hypertensive, warranting the use of Sildanefil, and also had signs of bronchospasms or breathing difficulty, warranting the use of Theophylline. I am unsure of your pets clinical signs to confirm this, but this would be a logical explanation. But ultimately if you want to 100% know why these medications were prescribed then it would not be considered rude or unheard of to ask your vet their logic behind this decision. It is always best to hear the information from the source rather than speculation from an outside source.

Hi, thanks for using Boop by Petco! Unfortunately you didn't provide your dogs weight so we can not give you doses. I recommend calling your Vet when they re-open. In the US it is not legal to prescribe medications with out a label and the medications not reconstituted (made in to a liquid from the powder form). Are you in the US? Also in the US we do not prescribe Acetominophen ( https://www.petcoach.co/canigive/dog/tylenol/ ). I recommend calling your Vet regarding that medication as we can't recommend giving it to dogs. I am sorry but if you want to re-post with Ringa's weight we can probably help with the Amoxicillin).

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.
