Can I get prednisone for my dog without taking him to the vet
CBC showed low red blood cell count & VERY low white blood count. Vet prescribed 5mg Prednisone every 12 hrs 2nd CBC, 1 wk later showed normal red & high white blood counts. Continued Prednisone at 3/4 tablet every 12 hrs for 3 weeks. This sounds excessive to me, what do you think. Can damage occur with continued use of Prednisone? No diarrhea, No vomitting, No fever, Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks, Jan

My dog is a 3 year Maltese with 11 lbs. He was wearing a Scalibur necklace for flees, and by that developed a red rash around the neck. We removed it yesterday, but today he is itching, breathing more heavily than normal, and squiling. We called a vet and she told us to give him dexamethasone. We have 0.5mg human dexamethasone. We gave him 1 pill 0,5mg 5 hours ago, and 2 more half an hour ago. Total 1.5mg. Is that enough? Should we give more? When will the effect take place? Thanks!
You My 9yr old German Shepherd was just diagnosed with advanced lymphoma... the vet prescribed prednisone (20mg). She weighs 71lbs, and the instructions say to give her 3.5 pills a day . That’s 70mg. I tried calling the vet to confirm this was correct , but I’m not getting through. Does 70mg seem right?
Hello! I have the 45mg tablets of Program flea treatment. How many tablets should I give a 100lb dog?
Can I stop predinisone for my dog after 5mg a day for 2 days and then 2.5mg a day for 2 days more? The vet said to give it to her 8 months ago for back pain after a bad landing when she jumped off a bed, 5mg for 5 days and half for other 5 days. It happened again, but the pain was less severe, she's all better now, can I stop the prednisone after these 4 days (5mg 2 days and 2.5mg 2 days)?

My dog has been on a steroid for three weeks now. He still has one week left of the “every two days” dosage but he has had every side effect (prolonged urination, constant thirst/hunger, and some panting). He is starting to gain a lot of weight and I want to take him off the steroid but he has four pills left. Is this ok? I’m afraid he’ll become diabetic.
