The proper dosage of Strongid (pyrantel pamoate) for dogs is typically 5 mg per pound of body weight. This medication is commonly used to treat intestinal parasites such as roundworms and hookworms. Always consult with a veterinarian for the appropriate dosage and treatment plan for your specific dog, as individual health factors may influence the dosage.
Simethicone can be given to dogs safely. The proper dose of this anti gas medication depends on the weight of the dog.
Don't guess at the dosage and call your vets (there is no charge.) Guessing by the size of the dog can cause risks.
For a 90-pound dog, the typical dosage of Benadryl (diphenhydramine) is about 1 milligram per pound of body weight, given every 8 to 12 hours. This means a 90-pound dog could receive approximately 90 milligrams of Benadryl per dose. However, it’s important to consult your veterinarian before administering any medication to ensure safety and proper dosing for your dog's specific health needs.
A dog should be give only regular strength Benadryl. For a small dog, it' probably easier to give it the liquid children's formula. The standard dose is one milligram for every pound given twice daily. So for your 14 pound dog, give 12-14 milligrams, twice a day. (If the lesser dose works, all the better!)
It is recommended to follow the prescribed dose for your dog's weight as using a higher dose can cause potential harm. It is best to consult with a veterinarian for guidance on the correct dosage for your dog's weight to ensure their safety and well-being.

I was given a 10mg dose for my dog who is 14 pounds. Hope this helps.
If you want to provide 7.5mg per pound to a 10lb dog it will take 1.5 pills per pound. 10lbs x (1.5pills)/lb = 15 pills
In clinical trials with dogs they used 1mg of zyrtec per 2 pounds of dog. So a 20 pound dog can take 10mg although with my 18 pound shiba the vet recommended 5mg. I would err on the lower dose.
For dogs, the typical dose of Zyrtec (cetirizine) is about 0.5 mg per pound of body weight. Therefore, for a 30-pound dog, the dose would be approximately 15 mg. It is important to consult with a veterinarian before administering any medication to ensure safety and appropriate dosing. Additionally, Zyrtec is usually given once daily.
The recommended dose of Pepcid (famotidine) for a 10 pound dog is 2.5mg once daily. It's important to consult with a veterinarian before giving any medication to your pet, as they can provide specific dosing instructions based on your dog's individual needs.
