Constipation on Flagyl

[chin_gal]

Hello,

I noticed after the 4th day on Flagyl, all my chins are constipated. My girl especially has droppings the size of tiny beads. I've heard of some fixes for constipation, but what do I do when it's caused by medication? I looked it up, and it is a side-effect. At least I hope that's why they're all constipated.

Thanks!
Brittney

bumping? I'm surprised this hasn't gotten a response. I've been trying 50/50 water/apple juice and additional exercise and am seeing how it improves, but if anyone has any other advice that would be great. )

Are they eating and drinking OK?
I would call your vet and let them know whats going on.
You may need some Propulsid to get things moving.
My guys quit eating on it and we had to switch meds.

They've been eating fine. I'll give my vet a call though.
