I have another thread, but wanted to ask a specific med question. I hope that's ok.
Quick history-cat is struggling with constipation and vomiting over 3 weeks. Recent X-rays showed she was all backed up. Had enema, cleaned a lot out and was ok for 48 hours. Now has vomited 3 times today. Has pooped twice, but it's starting to look like constipation poop. She's taking cisapride (started 3 days ago) and miralax, but vet called in a script for zofran today. I just picked it up and it's for 4mg every 8-12 hours. That seemed like a lot to me as it's what I take for migraines. Vet office is closed until Monday. Called ER vet and they said they haven't seen her, can't advise specifically, but that is an appropriate dose for a cat in general. Has anyone else's cat taken the same dose?
