Side effects?

Chance was given 4 x Rimadyl Pal 20 mg and 5 x Rilexine 300 mg. Has anybody ever used these both together before because he seems really drowsy?

He is still eating and drinking though

whats he been given that for ...did i miss a post

he ripped his dew claw
painkillers and antibiotics can sometimes make dogs sleepy

dont worry about it, it'll help him rest and heal.

poor little man, i bet it was painful (i read your other thread about his claw), hope he feels better soon

You were the one that told me to get him to the vets

Has that bottle of wine gone to your head

I have used these Rilexine, they caused severe irritation to my dog causing blood loss, his feaces were liquid and full of fresh blood and he had to go on a course of cimetidine he now as a warning sign on the computor at the vets to not issue these anti-biotics. Never used rymadol though.

He hasnt had anything like that

Just drowsiness, i have just given him hes second lot

Hi Sara,
It was after the 7th day and at first just spotting, just keep an eye out for loose stools, if he starts to go loose just watch for any signs of blood. I am sure he will be fine, not all dogs react the same to medications.

Our Charlie, a "littlte white dog", has a ream of conditions associated with these dogs, including rash, and dodgy knees. Had knees fixed last week. Put on Rilexene for rash and anti-biotic post surgery. He's going CRAZY now-hyperactive and rash worse. Could it be reaction to Rilexene as well? Also on Previcox. Seeing Vet tomorrow.
