How can I compare prices for my pet's prescription medications?
We don't sell prescription drugs here since we are only a consulting forum. However, if you want to do comparison prices for drugs then the best resource is https://www.goodrx.com OR calling the pharmacy of your choosing directly. I wish you all the best and hope that you can find an affordable price for your pets medication. Take care!

How do I prepare my sick small dog's vet-prescribed medicine?
Hi, thanks for using PetCoach! Unfortunately you didn't provide your dogs weight so we can not give you doses. I recommend calling your Vet when they re-open. In the US it is not legal to prescribe medications with out a label and the medications not reconstituted (made in to a liquid from the powder form). Are you in the US? Also in the US we do not prescribe Acetominophen ( https://www.petcoach.co/canigive/dog/tylenol/ ). I recommend calling your Vet regarding that medication as we can't recommend giving it to dogs. I am sorry but if you want to re-post with Ringa's weight we can probably help with the Amoxicillin).

Dog eye ulcer not healing with Vetropolycin? Switched to Terramycin.
Hello. When an infection or lesion has been treated for a time & it has not totally cleared up, it is always a good idea to switch to another medication. Vetropolycin is a triple antibiotic containing Bacitracin, Polymyxin & Neomycin & is generally prescribed for conjunctivitis. Terramycin contains oxytetracycline which is a bit more broad spectrum & is indicated in treating not only conjunctivitis, but other ocular conditions including corneal ulcers. Some ulcers do indeed heal very quickly, but sometimes we do run into a stubborn one. As long as the ulcer seems to be resolving, continue the medication & do make sure you have your veterinarian recheck the eye in about a week. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.

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 cat's eyes are runny. Should I use Terramycin or see a vet?
Terramycin is an antibiotic that can be used for bacterial conjunctivitis. But runny eyes doesn’t mean infection. I would have Penelope examined by a vet to determine the cause to start an appropriate treatment.
