? Give cartrophen with SQ fluids?

[nslade001]

Hi everyone, quick question... I'm giving Willow SQ fluids (75cc LRS every 3-4 days) as a just-in-case (diabetic, possible early kidney failure,17½ years old). I'm adding B12 in the line weekly, and have ordered B-complex that I will give in fluids as well. Wondering if the cartrophen she started on can be given in fluids? Her 2nd injection stung (didn't react to 1st at vet, of course lol)
Thanks! With love, Nikki
PS give fluids via syringe/butterfly, won't be injected in bag

I would ask your vet. Cartrophen is off-label use for cats (it was tested on dogs and horses)
