Not necessarily. You should use whatever the vet prescribes. Calculating dosage for dogs for human medicines is difficult to impossible without training since it is often based on type of medicine, dog weight and the medication strength and route of administration, such as milligrams per kilogram of dog weight.

Is it possible that Benadryl would help your little Maltese dog instead of giving her the drug Atopica?

Benadryl is a completely different type of drug to Atopica. Atopica is often used for allergys especially skin problems (perhaps this is what is wrong with your dog?). It is a very good drug and acts to dampen down the inappropriate immune response your dog is experiencing helping her feel more comfortable and less itchy. Benadryl is not licensed for use is dogs and comes in a strength made for humans, not a little Maltese! Please, please don't use it on your dog. She is on one of the best drugs for allergys there is. It isn't worth risking her health just to save some money.

Are there poison ivy treatments that don't involve creams or steroids?

Waiting it out would be the only option. There are many expensive over the counter soaps and one-time creams. These are often very effective but only within an hour or two of contact. At this point most people do not even know they have been exposed. Poison Ivy is an allergic reaction or body has to the oils in the leaves of the plant, therefore the only way to relieve symptoms would be topical or oral steroids. For minor cases, Benadryl, a first generation anti-histamine may be an appropriate option. However, due to its heavily sedating nature, benadryl may be a bad choice.


What would happen if you put steroids into a worm?

It would depend upon which steroids you used, and in what concentration. Steroids are used in humans to enhance muscle growth, but it would not have the same effect on a worm's muscles, which are quite different in structure.
