gooster Posted October 31, 2016 Report Share Posted October 31, 2016 Here you go - http://www.ribblevets.co.uk/page/248/Firework-Phobia.htmthis explains it much better than I can. Your vet really shouldn't have prescribed it for firework phobia. Every single website when you google 'acp for dog firework phobia' say it can make the phobia worse.

Yantan Posted November 1, 2016 Report Share Posted November 1, 2016 I'm against ACP too for all the reasons already stated. George and Archie were always prescribed Diazepam. I am going to take a chance and not dose Archie this year as he's hearing is nowhere as good as it was. We've already had a few nights with random fireworks going off and he's not heard them. I do have some in though just in case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackmagic Posted November 1, 2016 Report Share Posted November 1, 2016 I cannot have diazapam. They gave it to me when I had high blood pressure when pregnant. I t sent my blood pressure even higher and resulted in me being told not to get out of bed and the nurses taking my blood pressure every twenty minutes until it came down about two hours later. That was the instant result from one tablet It was used as a premed before an op but I couldn't have it. Fortunately, I am not anxious about an op, only the after effects of the aneasthetic which usually last for 24 hours. The last op I had the hospital didn't use it as a premed. Yantan, my friend had a GSD that was frightened by thunder, fireworks etc. She was thankful when he went deaf and no longer heard them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
