I use the children's Benadryl, you can easily find it without the artificial sugar, however generic brands do have the fake sugar. They also carry a child's pill now, and for a 5 pound dog, I've been told to give 1/4 and go up to 1/2 if needed. I can't imagine giving 1/2 of an adult pill to a 5 pound dog. My DIL's 8 pound dog only takes 1/4 of an adult pill. So you might want to check this out more. |
