Canned pumpkin is good-make sure you don't get pumpkin pie filling, just pumpkin.Isabelle has had some terrible diarrea as of late llat night. What can I give her. I am in the process of making her rice. Can I give her maloxx or mylanta? She is eating & drinking fine & her gums are pink. Ideas Please - Thanks
Didn't Isabelle just have a colonoscopy, due to some health problem? If that's indeed the case, it probably would be best to check with them before giving anything, especially if she's on any other meds.I would call and ask a clinic.
If she's not on any other meds, it would probably be okay to give her an Immodium. I was told Razzle could be given one 2 mg. tablet every six hours, up to 4 times per day.Yes, wednesday was the colonoscopy. She isn't on any meds for that. She only takes phenopopoline for dripping. I was at a horse show all day & will be there the entire weekend. So I left my husband in charge of dog. Well, you all know how that works. I had a call into the vet, but missed it. They will be there tomorrow so I am planning on trying to call them then. She is eating & drinking normally. She's even begging for people food. So I don't know what to make of it. I think her stomach is upset from the meds they gave her & the fact that she stresses when she goes to the vet. Thanks for all you help - I so appreciate it![]()
Good call MD my vet told me that that is fine for dogs,the active ingredient is Loperamide(sp)and does not harm them.If she's not on any other meds, it would probably be okay to give her an Immodium. I was told Razzle could be given one 2 mg. tablet every six hours, up to 4 times per day.
That's why I asked if Isabelle was on any other meds, and suggested that if she was, it was best to check with the vet. OTC medications can be useful, but you always have to take the situation with the individual dog into consideration before giving them.I disagree with giving immodium or pepto to a dog on other meds. Not that it would cause any reaction with the other meds, but those products "coat" the stomach and can really reduce the effectiveness of medications due to it not being disolved and absorbed in the stomach properly.
