Another thyroid kitty, was little Molly Meu. Molly was given the transdermal Tapazole. It was very effective for Molly and her T4's were in the NORMAL range.
And now we have Norton. He is 17 yrs old. Norton get the Tapazole pill twice a day. His dose has been successfully titrated to a 1/4 tablet in the morning and a 1/8 of a tablet in the evening. His T4's have been in the normal range.


Sandra,

Thank you so much for sharing your experiences - I have been searching all the previous forums to see others experiences with the three treatment options. My one concern is many of the pet owners who chose to give their pets the daily meds had issues with diarrhea. Have you noticed this to be a problem? Sydney is so very delicate with the cancer and I would really not want electrlyte imbalances because of diarrhea. The story about your baby going from one extreme to another (hyper to hypo) is also very scary. This would be very detrimental to her as well. I am so sorry about Boo. How old was Boo when he was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism? Was his death related to the thyroid issues? So many things to consider....
