Do others with dogs on H2-blockers use that much? Back in the early 90's, my Jilly was on Cimetidine for a while but it came from the vet in a dropper bottle & her dosage was some amount in the dropper.

Does anyone else use an OTC H2-blocker prescribed by the vet?
I use Famotidine with one of mine, which is Pepcid AC. This is Vet prescribed to dosage that she needs.
You need to call your Vet to ask about the strength. As there is 10mg and 20mg and what it needs to be broken to.
