| Tape Worm Pill After Effects Zoey had a tape worm pill on Monday at vets. Since then she has coughed with a gurgling sound occasionally. I'm wondering if the big pill might have irrated her throat. Have any of you experienced this? Cherie |

| I have never heard of such, could you have cut the pill in half? I would call your vet and see what the advice would be.

| I didn't give her the pill - the vet did. I just spoke with her a few minutes ago and she told me that it was a big pill and it could possibly irrate her throat and to call her if she doesn't stop in a few days. |

| She seems to be just normal. The vet asked me if she was eating and drinking ok and yes she is. I was afraid that she could have a trachea problem but it more of a gurgling noise not a honking sound. I was just wondering if others have heard this noise before. When they are so young everything is a big deal. Cherie |
