Hydromet 12.00...Then her frontline and heartguard... and that was just samie- she had my other dog SADIE--on even more meds- at one time- soloxine, tramadol, clavamox, benezeperil, amlodipine, and claritin- and all of this at ONE time!!!
and to go a step further- i faxed the specialist Sadies labs- (he saw her in december)... and he said to stop the thyroid med with her too. their thyroids were in normal range. Both dogs! sadies at 22 and samie's at 24. both tsh in normal range and both on thryoid med. ??????
for what it's worth- sadie is only on benazeperil for her protein loss- and we are hoping that her high blood pressure is what caused so much protein loss in her urine. If that's the case then I will be HOT about things. bc liver can reverse and repair- the kidneys cannot. As soon as I get some free time I will update info on Sadie.
