I did ask my vet, but again, I never ask enough questions...He told me 1/4 Zyrtec (which is 10mg) and 2-2/12 ml Benedryl. BUT I am using Children's Benedryl liquid and it's only half the strength of the adult tablet. See? I should've been more specific with him! I see him again next week...do you think vets and vet techs get sick of mommies like me?

I am happier not giving her the cortisone-it wasn't working for her, anyway.
