Canine Epilepsy, Medications And Quality Of Life Pet
Antiseizure drugs are
the mainstay of treatment for dogs living with idiopathic epilepsy. Antiseizure
drugs also have side effects - the most common being sedation, lethargy and
ataxia (wobbliness or lack of coordination). Every dog is different with regard
to the medications needed to control their seizures as well as range of side
effects experienced. In this segment, Dr. Karen Muñana and Dr. Simon Platt
share their perspectives about this common concern expressed by pet owners.
