help my poor baby seems like she is in pain

[Melikinskitty]

on 7/8 my 5.9lbs 4 yr old yorkie Tiffany went to the vet because i found a tick under chin.. they have her on quadritop 4 times a day to heal the boo boo on her chin... she has since started panting heavily.. so i called the vet today mayhaps thinking it was a side effect or something.. besides the heavy panting she is acting pretty normally.. its just so scary!!! the vet said it may be a side effect of the quadritop and to stop using it.. well her last dosage was 7 hrs ago and she is still doing the panting.. :(

It's scary when something like this happens, and on a weekend (of course it happens on a weekend! Just be glad it isn't a 3 day Monday holiday weekend!)

Only you can decide if she can wait for the vet office to open again tomorrow, or if she needs to see the ER vet.

The ER hospital near me would answer this question for me over the phone, but I don't know if all of them will do this: "My dog started panting heavily after Quadritop. My vet told me to stop it, which I have done. Now, 7 hours later, she is still panting heavily. How long does it take for the side effect to wear off?" So you may want to give them a call, see if you can get some info that way.

Where do you live? Is it hot / humid there today? Do you have a/c? This could also account for the panting. Just a thought.

Did they test her for lymes disease? If not, I would do so it is caused by ticks.
