Catapress

Recommended Posts

We have been trialling Rascal on Catapress for his anxiety, it works really well except he vomits about 15-20 mins after taking it and looks queasy and unsettled for an hour or so after, I have trialled nights without it and he’s ok so I’m sure it’s the medication.

Has anyone else used it and had this issue, did it resolve over time or did you stop using it?

We trialed it with Malcolm but it proved unsuitable (no improvement with anxiety, it just seemed to take the wind out of his sails physically).

 

There are many other options if it’s not the right medication for him. See what your vet says... might be a dose issue?

 

Have you tested whether he’s better taking it on an empty tummy or with a meal? When Malcolm first started taking Fluoxetine he’d vomit unless he had it with a meal.

Thanks, Rascal was very similar on Lovan, he was freaking out over every little sound, wouldn’t eat, didn’t want to leave our bed and was generally very depressed, was a really awful experience.

 

I am waiting for the vets to call me back to advise what to do from here.
