Galen is now taking his Omeprazole with no struggle. I followed the advice of many people -- to mix it with a little of his food. I didn't even need to use a syringe. After a little hesitating, he ate the whole dose, right off the plate. I'm assuming that mixing this particular Rx w food doesn't reduce its effectivity. He weighs 2.5 lbs, gets 2mg Of the Omep on an empty stomach, and he has to wait 20 mins after the dosing before getting access to other food. Sound ok? I'm hoping the treatment will improve his stools as well as the grinding -- they are ok in consistency and amount, but are perhaps a little yellowy, and definitely seedy. His appetite is very good. Btw, before I cd get the Omeprazole, I gave him a short course of Petromalt in case he had a blockage. [Posted in FML 7420]
