You will need to check with your vet. It will depend on the weight and medical condition of the dog.
No it does not. The same dosage is given to large as to small dogs.
Morphine can stay in your blood stream from two to five days depending on the dosage size taken.
The clinical trials lead to guidance about useful dosage, and ultimately the prescriber determines the dosage appropriate for the clinical situation.
You should start to see results within 2-3 days. An increase or decrease in dosage may be appropriate if the dog develops an adverse reaction and/or if the dogs incontinence problems persist. Do not alter the dosage with consulting a vet first.
Aspirin is not toxic to dogs, but too much would be harmful, and perhaps even deadly. Dogs can be given aspirin in appropriate amounts based on their age and weight. You should consult a vet to determine a proper dosage.
No, morphine sulfate isn't the same as percocet.. which contains acetaminophen and oxycodone. At equivalent dosage and on a person who never took them before, oxycodone is 2 times more powerful than morphine.
Opioids such as morphine are, sometimes. Opium itself... not likely; morphine is the active ingredient, and dosage is a lot easier to control with the purified substance.
10 mg
No, both are analgesic.. but they're not "equivalent" in efficiency.. oxycodone, at the same dosage, is twice more powerful than morphine. 10 mg morphine = 5 mg oxycodone.
Surprisingly enough, the answer is yes. Claritin is safe to use for dogs to relieve itching. Claritin-D should not be used on dogs, as it contains pseudoephedrine. Also, Claritin contains propylene glycol and should not be used on cats. Dosage for dogs is about half of the recommended human dosage for medium sized dogs, and about a quarter dosage for small dogs.
