Proin is a prescription medication used in the management of urinary incontinence in dogs. It contains the active ingredient phenylpropanolamine, which works by stimulating receptors on smooth muscles around the urethral sphincter to strengthen muscle fibers that can help your dog control their bladder. If you notice your pup sometimes has dribbles of urine on their beds or other places due to incontinence, consult your veterinarian and talk to them about Proin.
This Petco pet pharmacy medication is designed to offer an effective prescription approach to helping dogs who suffer from urinary incontinence manage their symptoms. Phenylpropanolamine helps to hold together the urethral sphincter, which can help your dog control urine leakage.
Proin for dogs comes in the form of tablets designed to be given with food, and it’s available in three different prescription strengths—Proin 25 mg, Proin 50 mg and Proin 75 mg. They’re also available in 60-count and 180-count bottles. Administer Proin to your pet exactly as directed by your veterinarian, who will have advised you on the appropriate dosage and schedule.
In addition to Proin dog bladder control, there is also Proin ER from the same manufacturer, which provides extended-release tablets for easy once-a-day dosing. Once you receive a prescription for phenylpropanolamine for dogs from your veterinarian, you can get Proin health and wellness and prescription solutions delivered straight to your door from Petco.

Hello, and thank you for using Boop by Petco. Unfortunately, there is nothing over the counter that is going to be anywhere near as effective as Proin for urinary incontinence. However, there are some supplements out there that can help. Here's the one I've had the most success with: https://www.petco.com/shop/en/petcostore/product/vetri-science-laboratories-bladder-strength-tablets-for-dogs?rrec=true Hope that helps!

Hi there. PPA (phenylpropanolamine, or Proin) is a very common first-line choice for urinary incontinence in female dogs, and often works well in my experience. So it's likely that this could be a good option for Sofi, depending on whether she has any other underlying health issues to consider. Unfortunately, we cannot provide a prescription over the internet, as legally this has to be done by a veterinarian who has physically examined your pet. So I would recommend making an appointment with a veterinarian in your area to bring Sofi in for an exam. He/she can discuss medication options for urinary incontinence with you, and should be able to provide a prescription for whatever medication the two of you decide to try.

Hi there! I'm sorry to hear about Brittany's troubles. I am not sure if Petco has full veterinary services, as that is the appropriate avenue for eventually prescribing proin. When I see a dog for urinary incontinence issues, I start with a full blood and urine panel and a culture of the urine to rule out infections or any other health issues. I also will check the urinary bladder with an ultrasound and take a few xrays to make sure we don't have bladder or kidney stones, or cancer of some kind causing the incontinence. Once I've ruled out any other causes, and I know I need to use proin, I check a blood pressure to make sure that's normal too (because proin can cause side effecrs with that). I'll start a patient on the recommended dose and then recheck to make sure it's working. A couple weela after starting I'll usually check blood pressure, and then once more 4-6 weeks out. At that time I'll often check a mini panel and just double check some blood values. If all is well, i wi

I'm sorry to hear that Bijou has developed some leaking. Unfortunately we do see that in a number of spayed females. Proin is one of the most common medications that we will use for urinary incontinence, but there are several others that you can try as well. I am attaching a handout with more information about urinary incontinence including treatment options below. https://veterinarypartner.vin.com/default.aspx?pid=19239&id=4952092 I would recommend asking your veterinarian about trying another medication for incontinence. Incurin or DES are the next most common medications to try after Proin. Good luck! I hope that was helpful. Thanks for using Boop by Petco.

You are correct, Proin and DES are both medications that are commonly used to treat urinary incontinence in dogs. However, its possible that urinary tract infections, bladder stones, or bladder tumors could also cause these symptoms. Therefore, a visit to your vet for at least a urinalysis (urine test) is indicated. If no cause is found, then medication such as DES or Proin can be prescribed by your veterinarian. Antihistamines will have a significant effect on urination in dogs. If you feel that we haven't met your expectations, please contact customer service at customerservice@petcoach.com. Thank you for using Boop by Petco!
