Reader Question
My dog has been showing symptoms of enteritis and colitis and we have been prescribed a liquid medicine but when she takes it she will vomit it up

What do I do


Answer from Our Team

Tell your vet she is vomiting the medicine, because she isn't getting the treatment she needs, and repeated vomiting can mean her illness is getting worse. Some medicines can be given with a small amount of food, come as tablets or capsules instead, or can be replaced with an alternative or an injection.

Don't change the dose or stop it without asking. If she is vomiting repeatedly, seems weak or lethargic, or has blood in her vomit or stool, she needs to be seen promptly.

See colitis in dogs.
