Thanks for using Boop by Petco! She is most likely going to be ok. However, it is very important that you let her veterinarian know since they prescribed the medications so that they can take note of this for the future but also so that they can tell you if based on her medical history, they would like you to make any adjustments. Good luck and have a great day!

Hi, my cat has kidney disease along with a urine infection. He has taken antibiotics for the infection and we have had a 2nd urine sample. This has just come back as being fine. The Vet however hasn't advised for him to take any medication to help wi
There is no medication that specifically treats chronic kidney disease. Changing to a therapeutic diet and increasing water consumption can help, and treatment is focused mainly on alleviating clinical signs like nausea or decreased appetite. High blood pressure can occur secondary to kidney disease and if Percy had high blood pressure then a medication might be prescribed. Urinary tract infections are also pretty common in cats with kidney disease so your vet may want to check Percy’s urine periodically.

Hello! my cat was diagnosed with an enlarged heart and fluid in her lungs yesterday. After running countless tests that came back negative for the cause (costing 1,300 for no answers mind you), our vet gave us a combination of furosemide 12.5 mg twic
Hello, sorry to hear about Meef. It sounds like she may be in congestive heart failure and thats why your veterinarian gave you those medications. The aspirin and furosemide may interact with one delay the excretion of these medications from the body. This can make the side effects of the medications most likely to occur. The biggest one we worry about is damage to her kidneys. If I were to pick one medication over another, I would give the furosemide as that will get her out of congestive heart failure, however the aspirin is also necessary. There are other medications that your can talk to your veterinarian about such as clopidogrel which will have the same effect as aspirin on the platelets and will not interact with furosemide. Ideally, depending on how severe her signs may be, Meef should be hospitalize to monitor her heart condition and fluids in her lungs. Monitor her respiratory rate. If you notice her breathing to be fast or labored, or if she has open mouthed breathing, you

Hello my cat roxy is diagnosed by you with eosinophilic plaque.please can you suggest any steroid and antibiotic names so that I can suggest it to my vet here in India.attaching few of her reports pls check
Hello, thank you for using Boop by Petco. Steroids generally used are Prednisolone or Depo-Medrol. If Steroids can not control the lesions, we often go to Atopica ( cyclosporine ). For the antibiotic, I would start either with the amoxicillin/clauvalonic acid or one of the cephalosporins ( Covenia if available to you). You might also investigate using a hypoallergenic diet for cats, such as one with a novel protein or one made with a hydrolyzed protein. Science Diet & Royal Canin are very popular ones here. Hope this helps. Take care.
