Daisy has been on Atopica for a couple of years. I don't find it difficult to administer at all. I draw up the syringe every day and shoot it into the back of her mouth. She hates it but knows a cookie follows the medicine so she is compliant.
I have not had any side effects of the drug. It runs about $58 for a 50 day supply.
This drug has literally saved Daisy's life. We went through incessant scratching, baldness, yeast, biting at paws and legs, scratching chest and face until bleeding...you name it.
Daisy looks great for an almost 10 year old dog....we did not get to the bottom of her allergies and other issues until she was 6.
We also have had a diet formulated by the Angell Memorial vet nutritionist but we see the RI dermatologist who is awesome.
Good luck with your pup!
