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.

Hello. For the most part, veterinary drugs are equivalent to the human version of the same drug & visa versa. If your vet has no objections, he should readily write you a prescription so you can purchase the medication at any pharmacy you wish to use. Just for your information, the product you are displaying is a human medication & not specifically for dogs. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.

There is a syrup called terbutalin, it's also a bronchodilatator but it may be easier to give to her because it is liquid. it's a human product so it can be purchased in a normal pharmacy with a prescription.

If you live near a Petco that has a full service hospital then yes, you could talk to the vet about refilling your cat’s prescription. If your Petco has a Vetco vaccine clinic then the vet performs vaccines and routine preventative care only and would not be able to authorize refills. Based on the zip code you provided it doesn’t look like there is a full service hospital near you: https://stores.petco.com/vet-services?q=Rothschild,%20WI,%20USA

Hello, & thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. Ketamine is a sedative, used primarily in horses & small animals for anesthesia. I know the rules about controlled drugs are pretty lax in SA, so all you can do is ask. If you develop any type of relationship with a veterinarian in your area, they are more apt to help someone out than a complete stranger. Laws about controlled drugs are changing rapidly in the region.
