Generally, anti-inflammatory drugs like prednisone, or in very rare cases thalidomide. In severe cases, cats can me given a morphine shot, which has the side effect of making them hyperactive.

One must NEVER give a cat human medicine. Not because cats are allergic, its because it is incredibly easy to overdose and that can often be fatal.
