Dewroming causing diarrhea Nick, my 10 month old yorkie got a dose of dewormer at the vet on Wednesday and has had diarrhea for the past two days? Is this normal? I have tried to give him pumpkin but he is not very interested. Does anyone know of another natural remedy to help him? Thanks! |
Yes it is normal for them to get "the runs" when they have been given a dewormer. Just went through this with mine a couple of months ago. It helps to clean them out. |
Well, that's a releif. How long does it usually last? |
Just a couple of days. If it goes longer I would call the vet to let them know. Hope he is feeling better soon!:) |
i'm going through this now, should i try the pumpkin to help, or let her be??? |
Well, Nick's didn't go away on its own. I had to take him back to the vet and the doctor said the diarrhea wasn't related to the dewormer or his vaccines. She gave him another type of dewormer and an antibiotic. They did tests and said they couldn't find any parasites. So she gave me both kinds of medicine incase it wsa a parasite that they didn't find or bacteria related. Anyway, the diarrhea went away after the medicine and did not return after his next round of boosters. You might want to give your vet a call and see if they think you should bring him back it. Hope your little guy feels better. |
