Why is my dog still itchy after food allergy tests and shampoo?
Temaril p is a combination antihistamine and steroid used to help with allergies. Some dogs have environmental allergies that are seasonal and based in exposure. This can be to things such as dust, pollen, grasses...things you can't control. They do make safer immunosuppressive medicine such as Apoquel that helps with this if needed

Can my dog take Temaril P for allergies and Amoxicillin together?
Hello, I hope Sophie is recovering from her surgery well! Yes Sophie can take both of these medications at the same time. Temaril P is an antibiotic/steroid combination medication that is used to help dogs with skin allergies. Amoxicillin is also an antibiotic but works in a different way than the one in temaril P. Antibiotics can make pets have an upset stomach, so I would recommend giving these medications with food to help minimize the chance of this side effect Hope this helps!

My dog's skin allergies on Temaril: Holistic options for her hunger?
Hi there and thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to address your concern. The Temaril medication can cause the increased appetite along with other side effects since it is a steroid medication. There are better options out there now, even prescription medications. For more natural remedies, I recommend the following: 1. Welactin omega 3 fish oil 2. Duoxo PS Calm shampoo and bathe twice weekly until resolved 3. Essential 6 spot on by Dermoscent All of the above mentioned products can be found online quite easily. If these do not work and holistic remedies are not helping, I would speak with your veterinarian about alternative options to Temaril. There are newer medications such as Apoquel and Cytopoint that are safer than the Temaril that Lulu is currently on. I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns.

Vet Q & A
My house-trained dog is peeing inside after Temaril-P. Is this normal?
Yes, this is a common side effect of this medication. Temaril-P contains prednisolone, which is a steroid - this is very effective at relieving allergy-related itching as well as a variety of other conditions, but it often causes increased thirst and urination as a side effect. In some dogs, this can be severe enough to cause urinary accidents in the house. This isn't dangerous at all, but can definitely be annoying for dog owners! I would recommend calling your veterinarian in the morning to let them know that Marley is having this problem. He/she may recommend reducing her dose to decrease the chance of further accidents.

Is it okay to give my dog Benadryl while he's taking Temeril-P?
Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Don’t panic! Benedryl can be safely given with Temeril-p . It may cause some drowsiness because the temeril-p already has an antihistamine in it but it sounds like that was the goal so no worries! Continue giving the Temeril P as prescribed. Best of luck to you and Mikko!
