I have no advice, but YAY! I'm glad you're vet approved it! I hope Amethyst responds well. :bighug:

@MJW has had success with it, I know lots of other acro cats use it, hope they will be by soon to chime in.
 
How much does Amethyst weigh? Most people seem to be giving 10 mg/kg of cat weight. There are 2.2 lbs per kg.
 
Your "little" girl is 8.2 kg, so that would be about 82 mg of cabergoline. What does the bottle say? You also need to know the concentration if it's a liquid. Ie. how many mg per ml of liquid.

Hi I will be receiving it on Thursday It will be Tuna Flavored Liquid Compound Thank you Wendy I will post when I have the bottle:bighug:
 
The dose is 10 micrograms per kg. A 10 pound cat would get about 45 micrograms a day. An 18 pound cat would get about 82 micrograms a day.
Yum's liquid is compounded at 90 micrograms per ml, so she gets 45 mcg per day.
You should check it when it arrives, but probably your vet did it right. They are good at that.

Good luck! I hope it works for Amethyst.
