PhenobarbQ: My dog has been on liquid phenobarb for three years now. is there another medication that petmeds sells that is similar and how much is it? i pay for 1 months supply of pheno at the vet $20. my dog takes 2cc of pheno every 12 hours. A: We do not currently sell phenobarbital. you can check with your local pharmacist as to how much he would charge as it is commonly available.
My babyQ: I have a 9 year old shar-pei and she has really started showing signs of pain when getting up and walking. i have been giving her the pedigree jonit care and that has helped some but not like i was hoping. i am not due to see the vet again until september. the last time i was in to see him last year, he gave me a week supply of some type of medication for her aches and pains. i could not tell if there was a difference or not in the week that i was giving it to her. i can not remember the name of the medication that he gave me but i really think that i need something better then the pedigree joint care that i have been giving her. i can not stand to watch her hurt and will do anything to help her. please tell me what i should give her. thank you very much for your help. michelle rose A: I would try deramaxx from 1800petmeds in conjunction with a glucosamine product like glycoflex or cosequin
Shop for: 1800petmeds, deramaxx
AsthmaQ: Hello my dog has been diagnosed with asthma but has not been given any treatment plan. yhe only treatment consists of a rush visit to the vet's office where he gets a cortisone shot and short- term dose of temeril. he is a 6 lb. yorkie. is there a maintenance medication? also, it is quite frightening when his wheezing worsens. are there rescue treatments we could administer ourselves? i myself am a severe asthmatic and physician as well. i am familiar with albuterol, theophylline, etc. but i have no experience with canines. i would appreciate any information. A: Sounds like he needs chronic meds like aminophylline or theophylline at dose of 5 mg per pound twice daily. also some of these dogs need low dose cortisone therapy during flareups so good to have supply of that around
Signs and symptoms of thyroid diseaseQ: Our 2 year old german wirehaired pointer, sadie, has had a few bouts of ear infections, sodium burns between her toes and recently has had what i thought to be a "contact dermatitis", along with a thining of her fur on her flanks. our vet was not sure that it was contact dermatitis and prescribed sadie with a 10 day supply of cephalexin and a steroidal spray (that we used for the sodium burns) to spray on the affected area. we were told that there may be a problem with her thyroid. my question is what are the signs and symptoms of a thyroid problem both hypo- and hyper-? A: Hyperthyroid is rare to non existant in dogs. underactive thyroid is more common and signs are very diverse and can include recurrent infections of skin/ears, weight gain, lethargy, intolerance to cool(i.e. heat seeking), dull dry hair coat, as well as many others.
