Title: What antihistamine
Post by: Racingsnake on March 16, 2010, 04:50:03 PM

Hi all
As it will soon be summer and Alba suffers terrible from a grass allergy
I was wondering apart from Piriton (which does not seem to work) what other antihistamine
Is it safe to give her??

Benadryl is safe for dogs  :blink: She can have a full adult dose, 250mg I believe, although it can make some dogs a bit sleepy as it does humans.
