My dog was prescribed Cerenia. What is this anti-vomiting medicine?

Cerenia is not a vaccine. It is an antiemetic medication to curb vomiting and reduce some pain/inflammation in the GI tract. He is not too young to receive it. Your vet would not have injected the medication if they thought it would harm your puppy. Hope this answers your question.

Meclazine is commonly used as an antinausea drug but essentially it is an antihistamine. The exact mechanisms of action for its antiemetic and anti-motion-sickness effects are not completely understood. Cerenia is a very effective aniemitic that works in multiple ways.

Cerenia is an excellent medication, but yes sometimes a dog can still be sick while on it. If you are very worried about Lily, leaving her at the vet is the best thing you can have done. Best of luck, I hope this helps!

1/4 tablet means to give 1/4 of a single tablet. So if you have a box of 4 tablets, you essentially have 16 individual doses you can give. I would only recommend giving this every 24 hours as well. I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further.

Cerenia is a drug called maropitant, it is very effective but unfortunately it is very stingy on injection. I imagine this has scared him a little, but if he seems out of sorts for an extended time I would consider going back.

Hello. There is a medication called Cerenia that is designed specifically for motion sickness. In addition, a very small dose of acepromazine may calm your pet for the duration of the trip. Please ask your veterinarian about prescribing these medications to you. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.

Thank you for submitting your question regarding Mia. Sometimes Cerenia can make a dog sleepy. It is a good sign that she has not had any more diarrhea. If she is eating and has not developed any new symptoms, then I would continue to monitor her. If she is not acting more normal by morning, then I would contact her veterinarian. I hope this information helps!
