Diphenhydramine is an antihistamine that may be prescribed by veterinarians for use in animals such as cats, dogs, ferrets, small mammals, birds, horses, and cattle. It is commonly used to help manage symptoms related to allergic reactions, motion sickness, and occasional vomiting. In some cases, it may also be used as a mild sedative or as part of the supportive care for certain conditions like mast cell tumors. All use should be under veterinary supervision.
Oral solutions are compounded specifically for your pet’s individual needs by our compounding pharmacy staff upon receiving a prescription from your veterinarian. It is important to order your refills of this medication a few days ahead of time because the preparation needs to be compounded specifically for your pet.
