I did a search and found the following info by several different people:

You can use Pepto or Pepcid AC (only, not complete).

For Pepto, give 1 teaspoon per 5 lbs. every 6 hours.

For Pepcid AC, give 1/4 of a 10 mg. tablet 2 times daily.

I would us the Pepto for diarrhea/stomach upset and the Pepcid AC for an upset stomach without diarrhea.

I hope that helps. I just lost my job too and it is very stressful by itself but to have a sick pet as well would make things even worse.
