Vet Q & A
My dog ran out of prescribed inhaler. Is Ventolin a safe substitute?
Flixotide (fluticasone) and Ventolin (albuterol) are different drugs with different doses in dogs. It is not recommended to switch or medicate your dog with a different drug without first contacting your veterinarian. Ideally, if you can refill the original prescription, that should be the first option. If your veterinarian is unavailable or if there are no more refills on the prescription, then you'll likely need to have Maisy rechecked before a new prescription or different medication is dispensed. Legally, we are prohibited from recommending doses or different medication in the absence of a physical exam and a patient-veterinarian-client relationship.

Dog itching eyes, snout, chewing paws. What allergy medicine is best?
It sounds like you may need a prescription strength medicine to help your dog become more comfortable. Your vet will need to examine your dog to ensure they are otherwise healthy (and to start a valid client/ patient/ vet relationship to legally dispense medicine) and then will decide which medicine would work best. There are newer products such as Apoquel and Cytopoint which may be appropriate. Your vet may also suggest an eye ointment to apply. You are welcome to request a consultation with one of the Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach veterinarians to prepare for your vet visit.

Can I refill my dog's allergy medicine without another vet visit?
Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! They will likely be able to refill it for you as long as they agree with that treatment plan to continue. Your best bet would be to contact them directly and check with your veterinarian. I am sure they will be more than happy to assist you and also to know that it is working well for Pablo. Have a good night!

Can Petco help me find accurate medication dosages for my dog?
Unfortunately, we are not permitted to give out drug dosages without a veterinarian - client - pet relationship. If you are seeking this information, I would obtain it through a veterinarian in person or through a veterinary formulary such as Plumb's or Merck. Hope this makes sense.

My dog wheezes with discharge after bath. Allergies, asthma, Benadryl?
It could be allergies. Asthma is not very common in dogs, but it cannot be ruled out. Unfortunately, without being able to examine Aminah and listen to her lungs and maybe do x-rays, I am unable to tell you what is causing her symptoms and which medications may be best for her. I would recommend a checkup with the vet.
