i really think your dog may need steroids but talk to susan and Jody first but just want to say my dog has mvd and is on temarilp which is prednisolone and i would recommend prednisolone over prednisone in dogs with mvd as it is broken down prednisone and easier on the liver so if you opt to do steroids make sure to ask about doing prednisolone instead of prednisone it is easier on the liver. My dog has been on this for 2 years and blood work perfect so i would not be so concerned with liver function and mvd at this point but ple/lymphangiecstasia is very serious so that is what is most critical here and the liver can rejuvenate itself and there things you can do to deal with that if it gets out of whack more. |
