Zeusy was on a minuscule dose of Zantac for about 2 weeks and felt much better -- no problems since. The vet thinks he may have a sensitive stomach but said it is much more common than people think. She said if we had anymore problems to bring him back, and he could therapy longer on the Zantac.
Glad to hear the Zantac helped Zeusy. He is in very good hands with you. Great job spotting the bleeding and taking action.
