Yes, Nelio is benazepril and that is a very common drug used in veterinary medicine for the treatment of cardiac and renal diseases. Here is an information sheet on this drug: http://beta.veterinarypartner.com/default.aspx?pid=17256&catid=93448&id=4952711 Hope this helps. Best wishes.

Hello. Yes, there are appetite stimulants that we often give to cats & I am sure your veterinarian is aware of this. Common ones are mirtazapine & cyproheptadine. Cerenia is often used just because it treats nausea, and a newer product called Entyce is being used extra-label in cats ( it is only approved for dogs right now, but the company is working on a cat application). One of the adverse effects with Felimazole is the possibility of loss of appetite. Sometimes discontinuing the medication for a few days & restarting at a lower dose gradually increasing to full dosage is necessary. Hopefully, Dutchess will be feeling better soon. Thanks for using Boop by Petco.

I am sorry to hear about Midnite. I would call and let your vet know of the symptoms. You don't mention if he just started this medication or if he has been on it long term. Some cats can experience lethargy and GI upset when first starting the medication and in some cases we need to start at a lower dose and taper it up, but you need to consult with your vet in order to know if this is the right course of action for your kitty. If he has been on methimazole for a long time and just started with the lethargy/decreased appetite, then an exam and possibly bloodwork are in order for him to ensure there isn't another cause for his symptoms.

It should drop quite fast if Morpheus is on an adequate dose of insulin, 295 is still a little high but it is definitely a good progress already, if it stays at the same level he might need a slight adjustment of the insulin dosage.

Ventricular fibrillation is the heart issue that you see people on tv getting shocked to try to correct. If not corrected, it results in death within minutes. Ventricular tachycardia and atrial tachycardia are very serious problems. In some dogs it is only transient (meaning only lasting for a few seconds) or it can be chronic. If chronic, it often needs medications to convert back to a normal rhythm or at least decrease the heartrate. In humans, both of these conditions are treated with beta blockers to decrease the heartrate or in the hospital for IV medications and symptomatic treatment. Heart disease that causes these conditions has a poor prognosis for good quality of life for an extended period. There is the possibility that the heart rate is simply high and without an actual arrhythmia. This is common in dogs with heart failure that do not have enough function to pump blood throughout the body. I would need to see the ECG to tell. Through the rest of the weekend, try to limit
