13 yr old poodle wetting in the house.Q: I took my 13yr old poodle to the vet to have her bladder/kidneys checked and they were fine. vet said this is common in older dogs. he presribed d.e.s. capsules 1 daily for 3 days, then 1 capsule twice weekly. the problem is i must get this prescription drug from the pharmacy and it is very expensive. do you sell this? if so how much? if not any other suggestions of meds. i have 6 pets and it is very costly. thank you maryann A: Through our new prescription compounding service we are able to supply the d.e.s. capsules you need. please contact one of our customer care representatives for help in placing an order.

German shepherdQ: Our 8 year old male german shepherd was taken to the vet one week ago and treated for skin infection. he was given a bath with sebolux and prescribed cephalexin capsules 500mg (4 capsules every 12 hours) also he was given prednisone 20mg once a day. after 3 days of treatment we noticed he was very lethargic, loss of appetite and his lower lip hanging down on one side accompanied by drooling. we contacted the vet and she advised to stop medication and give him benadryl 12.5 mg. he was given 2 1/2 tablets. two days after discontinued medication, he continues to drool, his lip has not improved, his energy not restored and he eats but very little. is it possible that he had an adverse reaction to the medication? are these syptoms serious and if so, should we seek immediate assistance? thank you A: Sounds like new problem with nervous system supply to facial structures. take back to vet for re evaluation
