ReikiAnge Posted March 5, 2009 Report Share Posted March 5, 2009 Thanks for the warning So sorry to hear about poor Oscar Not something I had thought to worry about until now I must admit I have Piriton at home anyway, from when the dogs have had it before. I may have to put it in my camera bag. Does anyone know though, if you do give Piriton to a dog, whether it will affect any subsequent emergency treatment the vet may wish to give?

Neoclassic Perk Posted March 5, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2009 Does anyone know though, if you do give Piriton to a dog, whether it will affect any subsequent emergency treatment the vet may wish to give? Not as far as I know - it does help keep the dog stable though and increases the chance of the anti-venom treatment to be effective - very few vets have this in stock routinely though, but it can be sourced from Hospital pharmacies.
