Many of the medications that people take are also prescribed for our pets, some of which are over-the-counter, and some are by vet prescription only. Antibiotics, antihistamines, analgesics (pain meds), antiemitics (anti-nausea meds), anti-diarrhea meds, sedatives, and insulin (for Diabetes) are just a few of the meds that people take that are also prescribed for dogs, and other animals, as well. But always consult with your veterinarian before giving your dog any med that has not already been prescribed by a vet, whether over-the-counter, or not.
