Coco takes Aluminum Hydroxide,
Azodyl,compounded Famotidine,compounded Amlodipine,Baytri and Miralax.
I was wondering if I can give any of them together.
The Baytril I give to her in the am and the Amlodipine I give her around 11 at night.
I did ask the vet but she was not sure on some of the medicines.

This is a question that would be better answered by a Pharmacist.

I know that some drugs need the acidic environment of the stomach to be absorbed. Famotadine is an H2 antagonist that inhibits stomach acid production. That changes the pH of the stomach, and will affect how quickly, or how completely, medications will be absorbed.

If he's a Pharmacist, he should be able to help you. I've not purchased any prescriptions from them, so I haven't talked to him. I get my Aluminum Hydroxide gel powder from Thriving Pets, but it doesn't need a script. It certainly can't hurt to ask him, if he doesn't know, he might be able to direct you to someone who can answer your questions. Good luck!

Thanks,
I will do that.
I get the Miralax and the Aluminum Hydroxide from them.
He does sell stuff you need prescriptions for but I always get that suff from the vet.
