Is Solomon Seal safe for my cat on medication after surgery?

Hello, thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. So sorry to hear that this happened to Beyonce. Yes, you can use Fenugreek but really it is not necessary. Beyonce will heal fine on her own. Cats are amazing in this way. You must be extremely careful adding substances to a cat's water - many cats will not drink if they notice a change in the water. Dehydration is very serious in cats so, if you do use it, be absolutely sure she is drinking. The dose is 30mg for every 5kg of body weight for one month. After one month you can cut the dose in half. I find it very hard to believe she is only 2.8 pounds at 3 years of age so be sure you have an accurate weight on her before dosing. Also be sure that Fenugreek is the only ingredient in the supplement. Other substances may be harmful to cats. Hope this helps. Best wishes.

If this is an all natural supplement, it should be fine and not interfere with the spay of your cat at all. If it is something medicated however, I would recommend calling your vet and letting them know about it, or just stopping it until after the cat has been spayed.

Usually you would not need Bach remedy or any other herb to help your kitty recover from dental surgery. Your vet will give her antibiotics and pain medication and she should be ok. i would not give her anything by mouth after a dental surgery as there may be open wounds and you could cause an infection or contaminate the mouth. It is safer to just not manipulate her mouth. Your kitty will feel so much better after having her teeth cleaned and damaged teeth removed. Give her lots of TLC if she wants it, and all will be well. Glycerine acts as a stool softener in cats and can cause diarrhea.

I would use this product only under the direct supervision of Sweetie's vet. The concern with seaweed, particularly in older cats, is that it is high in both sodium and iodine, which can exacerbate existing heart and thyroid conditions. I have not read any specific reports as to the effect of seaweed on the kidneys. The goal of this product is to keep tartar minimal on the crowns of teeth, but it does not slow or stop diseases under the gumline. As a result, I am not personally convinced of its efficacy.

I do not see anything in those ingredients that would cause a problem in cats. The upper ingredients are mostly water soluble vitamins which would not cause any problem in a cat for the most part. (Very high levels of vitamin C can cause diarrhea, but that is not a high enough dose in 1 capsule.) The lower ingredients are 2 glandular supplements and licorice (which is not toxic to cats and is actually used in Chinese herbal formulas for cats). I would not anticipate any problem with Raven ingesting one of those capsules. I hope that was helpful. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.

Acepromazine and diazepam at appropriate doses should be appropriate for post operative sedation and relaxation. However, neither of these drugs provide any pain control. I would consider adding an opioid-buprenorphine is my preferred opioid in cats- but since it is not available you may want to consider hydromorphine or fentanyl (in hospital) or tramadol (at home). NSAIDs are also an option but these have no sedative effect.

Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Sometimes it can take some time for cats to recover from anesthesia and administration of these medications together so that could be a reason why it has been taking him longer than expected to recover. If he is eating and otherwise doing well, it may be ok to monitor him for a bit longer. However, if he worsens or by tomorrow he has not improved, he should be evaluated by his veterinarian for reevaluation. Good luck and have a great day!
