I have a tranquilizer to be used during nail trimming. It is called Acepromazine 10mg. Is this medication safe for cats too?
Acepromazine is commonly used in cats for tranquilization, but does have some potential side effects. I am attaching a link to a handout below which discusses Acepromazine in more detail for you. https://www.veterinarypartner.com/Content.plx?P=A&S=0&C=0&A=570 I hope that was helpful and answered your question.

Hello from Indonesia, Our cat had surgery for a bad infected wound. Wrestling in her cage, she broke open the stitches right after, and also hurt 2 paws. Another operation is planned soon, but no proper postoperative chemical constrain protocol h
Acepromazine and diazepam at appropriate doses should be appropriate for post operative sedation and relaxation. However, neither of these drugs provide any pain control. I would consider adding an opioid-buprenorphine is my preferred opioid in cats- but since it is not available you may want to consider hydromorphine or fentanyl (in hospital) or tramadol (at home). NSAIDs are also an option but these have no sedative effect.

Kindly my cat does not like combing when i combing him he becomes hostile behavior starts biting and crashing I want to give him this tranquilizer so I can comb it but do not know the amount of dosage and instructions before and after giving??
The published dose for oral acepromazine is 0.5 to 2 mg per kilogram for sedation, however if this was notnprescribed for Tom I would not recommend giving it. Acepromazine can be dangerous for cats with certain medical conditions.

Our dog Snowden was given Acepromazine for anxiety. The dose was 1 1/2 - 2 pills 2 hours before vet appointment. We gave her 1 pill at 11:00 am. By 12 pm, she couldn't walk. She is laying in the yard, and we can't pick her up because she growls at
Hello. It is unlikely that this dose will be fatal, but this is an indication that she cannot tolerate this medication. Sedatives can be very unpredictable in dogs, so much care & thought must be given before administering them. If you can get her to the vet, that would be best. To avoid being bitten, ask to borrow a muzzle from your vet, or go ahead & purchase one. If you cannot do this, then you will just have to let the ace wear off, which can take 24 hours. Just make sure she is not lying in the damp or in bad weather. If you need to get her to the vet, next time you might talk about using something like Trazodone to calm her anxieties, or just a tiny dose of the ace. You will still probably need to muzzle her, but better safe than sorry. Thanks for using Boop by Petco.

So my cat has been scratching her face to the point of bleeding and she has a cone on. It's been on about 2 weeks. After the 4th vet visit the vet gave me Amitriptyline to give my cat. The problem is she wont take it. I've tried tuna, 2 flavors of th
Ask your vet to have the Amitriptyline compounded into a liquid or a transdermal gel. The transdermal gel is absorbed directly into the skin so you don't have to give anything by mouth. It is probably going to be the easiest solution for you. ( https://www.1800petmeds.com/Amitriptyline+Compounded-prod90001.html?Ntt=Amitriptyline+Compounded )
