| Ok, she is making progress...So how long has it been since she last did poop? I get the 'unflavored' kind of Pedialite. What about Nutrical - maybe you should be supplementing her with that too |

She should be snapping out of this by now if she hasn't vomitted since Friday. PediaLyte only comes in one kind, I think. You can also use PediaSure which is more of a liquid diet. I think it has protein in it.

| Ok, you may need to go to the Vet. 1 week with no poop isn't good.... |

| This is not sounding good. Can you apply for Care Credit if the bills are too much right now? How is her kidney blood work looking?

If she got a hold of Motrin, she needs blood drawn.

Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | I'm kind of confused - if she was treated at the first vet for motrin, which is kind of similar to Tylenol - did they NOT test her LIVER??? What exactly did the 1st vet do?

| "Treatment of NSAID toxicosis consists of early decontamination, protection of the GI tract and kidneys, and supportive care. Vomiting should be induced in recent exposures, followed by administration of activated charcoal with a cathartic. Activated charcoal can be repeated in 6-8 hr to prevent NSAID reabsorption from enterohepatic recirculation. Use of H2-receptor antagonists (ranitidine, famotidine, cimetidine) may not prevent GI ulcers but can be useful in treating them. Omeprazole, which is a proton pump inhibitor used for inhibiting gastric acid secretions, can be used instead of an H2-blocker at 0.5-1.0 mg/kg, PO, sid, in dogs. Sucralfate (dog: 0.5-1 g, PO, bid-tid; cat: 0.25-0.5 tablet, PO, bid-tid) reacts with hydrochloric acid in the stomach and forms a paste-like complex that binds to the proteins in ulcers and protects them from further damage. Because sucralfate requires an acidic environment, it should be given ³30 min before administering H2 antagonists. Misoprostol (dog: 1-3 mg/kg, PO, tid) has recently been shown to prevent GI ulceration when used concomitantly with aspirin and other NSAID. IV fluids should be given at a diuretic rate if the potential for renal damage exists. Alkalinization of the urine with sodium bicarbonate results in ion trapping of salicylates in kidney tubules and can increase their excretion. However, ion trapping should be used judiciously and only in cases where the acid-base balance can be monitored closely. Baseline renal function should be monitored and rechecked at 48 and 72 hr. Prognosis depends on the dose ingested and how soon the animal receives treatment following exposure." http://www.merckvetmanual.com/mvm/index.... I agree with Ann. What exactly did the vet do? They should have induced vomiting and gave activated charcoal through a tube down her throat if it was caught in time.

| Poor little baby. I am so sorry you are going through this. I know mine love mash potatoes but my husband is not that fond of them. Sometimes I just cut them up and boil them in alittle water with salt & pepper and butter and mine are walking on their back legs. Potatoes being a starch is good for settling her little tummy. Personally, I would be careful about the eggplant. I had a schnauzer that nearly died from eating eggplant. He loved the cheese topping and I didn't think it would hurt him and he was deathly sick from it. Good luck with that sweet baby. |
