Best Answer

Yes. Frontline/Frontline Plus is a topical flea and tick preventative. Prednisone is a steroid and has many uses in veterinary medicine as it is an anti-inflammatory. Quite often it is used to control Allergies in dogs, for pain relief, controlling inflammation, and in a number of other conditions.

These medications do not adversely interact with each other. However, with the use of any medication there is the risk of having a reaction. If there are any unusual side effects when using a medication prescribed by your veterinarian, let them know as soon as possible.

Prednisone, as useful as it is, can cause significant side effects if not used judiciously. Use it ONLY under the direction of your veterinarian and follow their directions explicitly.

How long should my dog be kept on Prednisone?

This will depend greatly on why your dog was started on prednisone. If the prednisone was for a temporary condition, like getting an itchy skin under control, your dog should be weaned off the prednisone within a couple months at most. However, prednisone is also prescribed to treat Cushings disease, which is a permanent condition that requires medication for the rest of the dog's life.


How much prednisone do you give a 18 pound dog?

There is no set dose for an 8 pound dog; veterinarians typically prescribe within a certain range based upon the dog's symptoms and what the prednisone is being used to treat. Prednisone is a powerful drug with the potential for serious side effects, particularly in such a small dog. If you believe your dog needs treatment with prednisone, you should make an appointment with your veterinarian for an examination.

Yes they can but have to be weaned off of the prednisone very slowly. This should only be done under your Veterinarian's care. Why is the dog on prednisone in the first place?
