Questions
my vet prescribed this for my cat--1/4 tablet do they make this for cats or dogs only???
- There is only one metronidazole for cats and dogs, so you're looking at the correct med for your cat. The weight of your cat determines the dosage. I hope this helps.
Helpful?
label says 500 tablets, description says 30 count.... which is it?
- Label says 500mg, not tablets. That’s the dose per tablet

Can I break down a 250mg pill of Metronidazole for dosing a 2 to 3# puppy if they are to have liquid 12mg per 2# pup? I ask because I had a prescription from my vet and the cost was $44 for a 10 day supply, 40mg bottle, to dose 2 puppies. This was "compounded" by the only pharmacy in town that does this. I have other puppies that need treatment also, the littermates to these two. They are small breeds, Maltese and Chihuahua. Thank you so much!
Can I give my dog metronidazole for a urinary tract infection
Hello, my dog was not feeling good about 3 days ago. Had to do with his old freeze dried/raw food I believe. Doctor prescribed him metronidazole. He looks fine now. And they tested his stool for a couple of things and all was negative. Everytime I give him the meds, he is out of it for a few hours and just wants to sit in my lap. Dose is 50 mg / pill, 2 per 12 hours. As everything is negative, can I stop giving him this? I am changing his food as well. Thank you

How to use metronidazole for various diseases of blood parrot fish ?
Hello, My puppy is infected with various intestinal parasites. She is only 4 weeks old. We took her to the vet and she got prescribed Metronidazole pills. We are supposed to give her 25mg (half a pill) every 12 hours. But, when we did this, she began to experience terrible neurological side effects like dizziness, stiffness, unresponsiveness, and not eating or sleeping. I decided to cut that dosage in half, giving her 12.5mg every 6 hours. Will the medication still be effective given this way?
We are giving our 12 week old kitten metronidazole 25 mg every 12 hours because he more than often has had bright red blood in his stool. The vet prescribed metronidazole saying that it could be parasites. He hasn't had a bowel movement in 48 hours. Does the drug cause constipation, should we stop the meds? Is 48 hours without a bowel movement bad? He is eating very well and his activity level is normal as well. He used to have regular bowel movement (1-2 times a day). Thank you.
Dehydration, diarrhea. No worms found, bacteria infection. Metronidazole prescribed, broad spectrum wormer.. Dog won't eat dry food wetted down but does eat canned. Dr said this drug can cause diarrhea but he already had it so you may not see improvement yet.. Continue meds. This drug can cause unbalance and grogginess. She wasn't teal thrilled he threw up yesterday but that's also a possible side effect. Absolutely no pepto but a pepcid is OK..is any of this true?
Our dog (50 lbs) got two doses of metronidazole tablets 250mg tonight instead of one. I had not realized my husband had already given her the dose for tonight. Should I induce vomiting or will she be ok?
My dog has coccidia but was given metronidazole. Upon researching I found out that it is for Gardia. Will metronidazole still be effective for treating coccidia? There is no Albon available in out country. Also my dog keeps eating her poop so she just gets reinfected again and again
My cat (6.8 kg) has diarrhea, and the vet prescribed 1/2 Flagyl 250 every 12h (no specific diagnostic was made). It's been very hard to follow this protocol because the cat is very stubborn when taking pills (spits them and panics) and the only person in the house who can do it is me. However, due to my work shifts, I can only give him one of the doses. I read online that this dosage (1/2 pill) can be given just once daily and it's still effective for GI upset, but wanted to confirm this.Thanks!
Hello, My cat was prescribed 30 x Metronidazole 50 mg/ml (compounded liquid) and also Gabapentin to use as needed. The Metronidazole is for stomach upset that has caused her to eliminate on my bed. She gets very upset by the meds - have to wrap her in a towel etc. Now she is scared of me and pulls away when I go to just pet her. I am afraid if I keep administering the meds she will never be the same with me again. But she needs them and I’ve tried hiding it in food of all kinds.
