PEPCID AC HOW MUCH?
LUCY HAS A TUMMY ACHE. SHE ATE NORMAL YESTERDAY A.M. THEN VOMITED. A LITTLE LATER WENT FOR A WALK AND SEEMED FINE. SHE HAD A SMALL TREAT AND GOT SICK AGAIN. RESTED ALL DAY AND I GAVE HER DINNER P.M. BUT NOT AS MUCH AND WAS FINE. THIS A.M. SHE WOULDNT HARDLY EAT AND GOT SICK JUST THE SMALL AMOUNT SHE DID. SHE WANTED OUTSIDE AND GOT SICK AGAIN. I THOUGHT IT WAS SOMETHING SHE PICKED UP FROM OUR WALK BUT REMEMBER NOW SHE GOT SICK BEFORE THE WALK. THE DAY BEFORE WE DIDNT GO ON A WALK BUT MAY HAVE EATEN SOMETHING OUTSIDE IN OUR OWN YARD. SHE HASNT BEEN AROUND ANY OTHER DOGS OR PUBLIC AREAS. I HAVE PEPCID AC 10 MG THAT I GIVE A 1/4 TO MY 8LB. CAT. LUCY IS 65 LBS SO WHAT AMOUNT I GIVE HER? HALF THE PILL 5MG OR THE WHOLE PILL 10MG? THANKS GUYS. WANT TO GIVE IT TO HER SOON, PLEASE HELP~ |

| I don't know anything about Pepcid AC for animals. I do know that you can give her Pepto-Bismol. About an ounce for her size.
You should give your vet a call. They know her and can give a better recommendation or possibly want you to bring her in. Good luck with your sick sheepie girl. |
| I would always consult a vet before giving any meds. Although pepcid is often prescribed for dogs, it is not something to just give for ordinary throw-up (like the kind from after eating grass). Among other things, it can interfere with digestion and could mask signs of an illness. If you think your sheepie is sick enough to need medication, then she is sick enough to consult a vet.
I hope she feels better soon. |
| Seriously...
if it's an emergency, CALL YOUR VET PLEASE!!! ...and hopefully your doggie gets better soon! |
| CALL YOUR VET ASAP. She might have some kind of blockage in her intestines. Has she been pooping okay? Could be that she ate some kind of fecal matter too but the fact that she can't hold anything down is worrisome. |
THANKS EVERYONE. I DIDNT END UP DOING ANYTHING YESTERDAY AS THE VET WAS CLOSED. SHE ATE HER DINNER FINE AND WAS READY FOR BREAKFAST THIS MORNING. SHE WANTED TO PLAY AFTERWARD SO I CAN TELL SHE IS FEELING FINE. SHE MAY HAVE EATEN SOMETHING OUTSIDE THAT DIDNT AGREE WITH HER. THAT GIRL CAN GET INTO THINGS SO EASILY. THANKS TO THOSE WHO POSTED AND SHOWED YOUR CONCERN. WE APPRECIATE IT.  |
