Vet Q & A
Is it safe to give my cat amantadine and gabapentin together?
Gabapentin and amantadine can be given simultaneously, as there are no interactions between these drugs. They work quite well together to manage cases of neuropathic pain! Make sure to follow the dosing instructions from Kitkat's vet closely. If you are questioning the efficacy of Kitkat's medications, consider discussing alternative medication options with her vet.

My cat won't take Amitriptyline pills. Can I get a flavored liquid?
Hi there. Yes, you should be able to get it compounded into a flavored liquid (like chicken or fish) if this would be easier for you to give. You may have a local compounding pharmacy that can do this, or you can use an online pharmacy like Wedgewood or Vets First Choice. I would recommend calling your veterinarian tomorrow to talk about this - he/she should be able to tell you where you can have this done, and can write a new prescription for the compounded medication.

Why is my cat acting crazy after taking Ariprazol & Gabapentin?
I'm wondering if Portifoy is on aripiprazole or Abilify, and if this is causing adverse signs due to serotonin syndrome. I can't find any information on dosing in cats, but I would imagine that like most antidepressants hyperexcitability might be a symptom. Amitriptyline is another common medication that is used as an antidepressant in situations like this that can cause odd behavior. I'd recommend talking to your vet about whether or not you should continue the medications. While gabapentin can cause sedation I think it would be less likely to cause these symptoms.

My cat has seizures. Vet suggested Tegretol, but warned it's lethal.
Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Seizures can occur due to many reasons that go from a toxicity, metabolic diseases, inflammatory diseases and even tumors. I would reach for more traditional anti-seizure drugs such as phenobarbital. This is something your veterinarian can prescribe for him. Good luck and have a good day! Hoping for a speedy recovery!

My cat is hyperactive. Are B-12 or Denamarin medications to blame?
Hello. Other than making Gayle feel beter, & therefore more active, there is no indication that any of these medications will cause any hyper activity. Has your veterinarian done any recent bloodwork? I would really like to make sure her thyroid values are normal. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
