Okay, I've searched the last year of archives (since I only want the most current information) and didn't find what I was looking for so here I am to ask some questions. My Woody will be 10 this year and presently he is on 1.0 ml of pediapred twice a day for insulinoma. He has a very hard time walking and I have to lay his butt down to eat because the poor little baby has a problem with his backend getting away from him while enjoying his Bob C's Gravy. I really think Bob C's food is his sole purpose for living. Anyway, I've read a lot in the archives about the max dose of pred, but have not ever read exactly what that max dose is? I will be seeing the vet by Monday (when the diazoxide she ordered comes in) and I'll ask her then, but I thought there would be different opinions on this subject. Also she said the dose for the diazoxide would be 1.0 ml twice a day ... is this what most people would start out at? I wish I would have read the archives before I talked to her about diazoxide because since they have not gotten it in before they had to "track" it down and it's on it's way but I have no idea what the cost is going to be. some ferrets may nip, but some people just suck.
