Phenergan is the brand name for the medication promethazine. This medication is used mainly as an anti-nausea treatment for people. In dogs it is used as an anti-histamine, although it's not the most commonly prescribed--usually only if other meds haven't worked effectively.
In both people and dogs it acts as both an anti-histamine and an anti-nausea.
For dogs, the anti-histamine dosage is 1mg/kg (2.2lbs), usually twice daily. It is not generally prescribed for nausea in dogs, but I have used it successfully as such a treatment numerous times, using the same dosage guidelines (1mg/kg), but administering the medication every 4 hours until vomiting ceases. However, only once did I ever have to administer a second dose to any of my dogs.
Keep in mind, I am not a vet (and not affiliated with any vet or with the makers of phenergan or promethazine--covering my a**, here!), and of course cannot recommend the usage of any medication for any animal (and would recommend you consult your vet). I am just telling of my personal experience with the medicine.
Also, the possibility for drug interactions does exist, especially with medications for anti-anxiety, narcotics for pain, other anti-histamines (like benadryl), and anti-depressants.
Never medicate a pet without first consulting your veterinarian. Over-the-Counter medications can be deadly for pets and those that aren't will need different dosages than those for a human of similar size. Most veterinarians will accept phone calls from clients and advise you of the proper first aid treatment at no cost.
Phenergan can be used for both cats and dogs. It is used as an anti-emetic, and should take a dose of .1 to .2 every 6 to 8 hours.
Phenergan/Promethazine is not a pain medication; it is more of an antiemetic/antinausea drug. It is also used for allergy symptoms in humans. It may cause drowsiness.
Cetrizine is not safe during pregnancy. You can take promethazine (Phenergan). That is safe during pregnancy.
Ask your doctor about this--and don't take it unless he or she says it's okay.

It is not recommended that you give your cat Phenergan. If your cat is sick, it is better for her to get it out of her system.
