Canine Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia (AIHA & IMHA) - Prilosec vs. Pepcid
| I saw in another thread that Prilosec is better than Pepcid as a stomach protectant. I would like more info on this. Riley has been having some trouble with constipation and I notice that is a side affect of Pepcid. I had researched Prilosec but noticed side affects of that med is bone marrow suppression, which is obviously not what we want. I would love to know more! |

| hi jennifer. when my amy suffered a burst ulcer we put her on antepcin 30ml x 3 times daily and it cured it quickly.you just have to be careful to not give any other drug less than 2 hours either side of it as it lines the stomach and can stop absorbsion.we also give omoprazole antacid. hope this helps. best wishes.john&amy. |

| Bone Marrow suppression is rare with prilosec. I think it actually is due to B12 absorption issues. |
