My Dog Takes Phenobarbital for Seizures

RE: My Dog Takes Phenobarbital for Seizures By Liz Caceres (Guest Post) My dog started having seizures in August, one right after the other and she is on Phenobarbital now and hasnt had a seizure since. She is a mixed cocker/lab and 2 years old. For two weeks she was lathargic and not her usual playful self, thirsty, more hungry and needing to go out to potty constantly. She just stayed under the table and wouldnt come out or let us get near her. It took a good 2 weeks for her to get back to her old self and now she is normal again. She has already had her blood work done and it was ok, so Im happy. This was a very scary experience but you learn to adapt as she has.

He seems extremely nervous and tired. He hasn't had a decent sleep in almost 48 hours. I just don't know about these meds. It seems like hes feeling the onset of a seizure without displaying the actual physical assault of a seizure. Has anyone experienced this and did your dog eventually adjust?

He is now 13 and is just now slowing down. He has always been a barrel of energy. You will have to have her blood check I think it is yearly to be sure the phenobarb levels are where they need to be. We also kept track of his seizures and wrote down when he had them what he had been doing prior to and how long they lasted. We took this record in each time we went to the vet.

He also was put on phenobarb and I had to call the vet this a.m. He walks around like he's drunk. They told me that this is perfectly normal for about 5 days. The medicine should even out after that. Now if he stops eating/drinking I have to let them know. I guess I'll just have to watch and see. They did tell me that if he has no more for 6 mos. we'll try weaning him off. We'll see.
