OTC med doses

[Steph & Cuddles (GA)]

My Misha (drooler) seems to be under the weather, so I was trying to find out how much pepcid ac I could give a 50 lb dog. Found this site, and going to bookmark it! Could really come in handy in the future!

I posted this on Community too, and Jess said Misha COULD actually get a full tablet (instead of half, like it lists). She seems to feel better today after the half of a tablet, so I guess it's good to know they may err on the side of too low of a dose, rather than too high! The cutoff for the Pepcid for dogs is 60 lbs.. so I guess it's not that much of a stretch, since she's 50 lbs.

Still a great bookmark to have!
