Pepto?????? Has anyone ever given Pepto? Was reading about some safe OTC meds to give and Pepto was recomended for diarrhea. No, it is not a parasite or anything serious....moma just got a little too generous with the cottage cheese. :( And I would not actually call it diarrhea....just loose stool. I have already tried the pumpkin. Just wanted to know if anyone had experience with the Pepto and if it helped. |
As far as I know pumpkin helps if they can't go, squash is for diarrhia, but yes I have given pepto before upset bellies, usually 1cc for ahout 6 lbs |

The emergency list was posted by those have had experience in using the meds posted. It does say to follow with Pepcid |
I have used Pepto on my yorks and it works good, for a 4 pound Yorkie it only takes 1/4 cc and for a 5 pound 1/5 cc and so on I hope this helps :) |

all drugs and dosage is listed... http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/showthread.php?t=98937 hope this helps |
I've had a lot of luck with the Pepto helping out with the runs, and upset stomachs. |
The one thing to remember is to take care when administering any meds without consulting a vet. If your pup only has one loose stool....it could very well be they ate something they shouldn't have....if continues with what is beyond your pups normal routine....then I'd think about it.... |

This is the second day that delilah has had a bit of the messy poops and I gave her the pumpkin last night. Just wanted to know about the Pepto as a backup if I needed it. However, she just had a more formed stool so I think the pumpkin and withholding the cottage cheese has worked. |

Again, thanks for pointing me in that direction. |
