Some people may already know this so sorry if this is redundant. I want people to know that if they are giving their ferret Carafate and another medicine that they cannot be given at the same time. Ideally you should wait 20 minutes after giving the carafate before giving them any medicine. My routine consist of Carafate wait 20 minutes, baby food, then prednisone. Giving the Carafate and another medicine causes the Carafate to prevent the other medicine from being absorbed by coating the stomach. I am not a vet, but I play one on TV... any questions please check with your vet. Lisa & her 24 paws [Posted in FML issue 4181]
