My dog had diarrhea for 3 days with some vomiting at the beginning. He then seemed o.k. but had one more bout of vomiting. I took him to the vet out of concern. The vet said he was giving him a couple of shots to calm his digestive system down. Normally, I would ask what they were but I just assumed they were for the diarrhea. He also gave him some flagyll pills. When I got home, the dog was fine until later on when his heart seemed to be pounding and his eyes looked somewhat fixated. The next day he seemed fine, and we've been feeding him chicken and rice, but he didn't poop for 2 days. Then, today, he had diarrhea again. I called the vet to ask what shots he had given him, and he said it was cortisone and centrine. I was surprised the he had given him cortisone because my dog had only been sick for a few days. The other drug sounds like it also can cause excitability. Are these two drugs dangerous when given together and then with flagyl on top? Also, is it o.k. for me to give him some kaopectate along with all of the other stuff he was given?
