How many times a day do you give her it? Scooby is currently on 0.3ml twice a day with the option to increase to three times a day if he starts to leak again.

I'd go back to the vet and see if the dose needs to be increased, sometimes they give propalin and incurin together too. Rio has been on Propalin for just over a year now but is down to a very small dose for her weight, she started out on incurin which didn't work at all for her and then went onto propalin 3 times a day at 0.70ml but is down to once a day at only 0.40ml so the effective dose can be highly variable.

Banana started on 0.7ml three times a day and is now holding on two.

I would agree with the above, take her to the vet and hopefully it will be a case of a higher dose needed

We got results straightaway and its not a drug that accumulates in the system so I'd think you should definitely see results within a couple of days if it's going to work.

I would have her checked by a vet to make sure there isn't something else wrong that is causing this. Rule out all other things and you then know it is just leaking.
