| leakage My little 10 year old has a history of bladder stones and pancreatitis. He has started having a leakage problem. The Vet did an Xray and Ultra sound as well as running tests on his urine. Crystals are present; but no stones were observed. The Vet has recommended PROIN for the leakage. Does anyone have any experience or knowledge of this drug. He is already on RX to control the stones. They assured me that Proin would not interfere with his other meds. But, you all are so knowledgeable I also wanted to check with you. Thanks! |

| My Molly had to take Proin because she had this problem. She did really well on it. She had to take it daily. One thing you need to keep in mind is that once you start it and if you stop you can end up having the same problem. Well at least with my situation that was the way it was. But it was a God send for Molly.

| We've used the Proin off and on for Bernie (he leaks due to neurological damage). He's never had any problems on it, but we haven't been using it for awhile. Even with the Proin he has to wear belly bands 24/7 so I've decided to stop using it and just change the bands more often. ( He does leak less when using the Proin) Good luck with whatever you decide.

| another proin question Thanks for the feedback. For those of you that have used Proin was it the liquid or pill form? How much does your little one weigh? What dosage? and how did you get your baby to take it? The Vet gave it to me in liquid form. He is 12 pounds and they said they did not have pills in the correct dosage for his weight. He takes .3ml twice daily. We just started this routine so I am trying to learn. Thanks |
