After Spay Meds Chloe was given Carprofen for pain and an anti-inflammatory after her spaying yesterday. It didn't occur to me to ask the vet how long I should give the meds to Chloe. Any suggestions? Also, has anyone used this with their dog? Did they seemed drugged up? I don't know if these pills are like advil or like a vicodin. Is my baby sleepy from the surgery yesterday or from the pain pills? |
Carprofen (Rimadyl) is a very common drug to give after surgery. Ellie's vet wouldn't give it because it is terrible on the liver and we thought she had a problem. Her vet does use it for most of her spays I think though. I am guessing it could make her sleepy. I gave Ellie pain meds til I thought she didn't need them (about three days). I do not like this drug and Ellie would have to be in some severe pain for me to consider it (my opinion only). |
