can lasinopril replace elanapril ....? or what human drug is the same as elanipril??
Enalapril is the generic form of this medication and it is the same as the enalapril used in humans. Lasinopril is a similar drug, is in the same class, and has a similar mode of action. Ofterntimes it is doctor preference which one is prescribed but occasionally there are reasons to choose one over the other. Enalapril is more commonly used in veterinary medicine. So yes, you could potentially switch to lasinopril but I would definitely speak with the prescribing veterinarian first to make sure there are no specific reasons to avoid it. I hope this helps. Thanks for using Boop by Petco. Best of luck.

my dog was taking enacard for leaky heart valve but im disabled and can't afford 80$ a month for it... is there a cheaper generic kind i can get for him?? hes my buddy and i love him so much... please help..
Yes, there is a generic called enalapril maleate. You will need to get it from your vet. Just ask them and they can either order it for you, write you a prescription or call it in to a pharmacy for you. It should be much more cost effective. http://www.veterinarypartner.com/Content.plx?P=A&S=0&C=0&A=535 Hope this helps. Best wishes.

My 80 pound dog was put on 2 doses of 20 mg per day of elanapril maleate. Online it states that the typical does is given once per day. Was she prescribed too much?
Enalapril can be administered once or twice daily in dogs. The dose prescribed is appropriate according to current formularies. You can read more obout the drug at the link below. https://www.petcoach.co/pet-medication/enalapril/

I accidentally gave a 20 mg enalapril to the wrong dog. It was meant for my 90 lb Lab, but I gave it to my 110 lb dog by mistake. Do I need to take my dog to the emergency vet or will he be ok?
Hello and thank you for reaching out to Boop by Petco. A single dose of this enalapril to your 110 lb dog will likely be OK, and you should not have to bring him to your veterinarian. Please monitor for any vomiting, diarrhea or weakness, and absolutely have him/her seen by a veterinarian if you notice any of these signs. I hope this is helpful!

I dropped a 5 mg enalapril on the floor at 12:00PM today and my dog ate it before I could stop him. It is now 5:30PM and he has been fine all day, should I be concerned?
Hello. 5 mg was a very small dose of enalapril ( which we do use regularly in dogs ) for a dog that weighs 55 pounds. Abby will be perfectly fine & you have nothing to worry about. Thanks for using Boop by Petco.
