Doses vary widely from pet to pet, however, so be sure to ask your vet for advice.

1. Pepto-Bismol can be given. Give one teaspoon per 20 pounds of weight every four to six hours.

2. Kaopectate is helpful for digestive troubles. Give one teaspoon of Kaopectate for each ten pounds of weight every four hours.

3. Di Gel Liquid can be given up to 4 tbs. every 8 hours.

4. Maalox can be given up to 4 tbs. every 8 hours.

5. Antacid liquids for humans containing aluminum and/or magnesium hydroxide may help soothe the irritated stomach lining; however, the most important part of treatment is fasting! (Dose aluminum hydroxide antacids to provide 10mg per pound [22 mg/kg] of body weight every six hours.) If vomiting is present with diarrhea, drugs containing bismuth subsalicylate are best.

Do not give any preparations containing aspirin when your pet has upset stomach.
