Prendisolone Success

[mrw5641]

Good day all! We were prescribed prednisolone for my cat to help with chronic vomiting as we tried Budesonide and it helped but not that much.

Anyone have any good success with prednisolone and vomiting?

Yes Prednisolone can help if it is an inflammatory response of the gut.

It helped my old cat but she lost too much weight. My cat Maggie,it has helped but she would still have episodes.

Did they test for pancreatitis? If her tummy or gastro tract is inflamed prednisolone should help.

It can take a week+ to work.

Yes, I can try to find references later on. My own cat has been on it for years due to IBD and lymphoma.

Yes! Rosie was vomiting clear viscous fluid daily. After being put on 2.5mg of Prednisolone daily her vomiting stopped. We have to get regular lab testing done to make sure that it's not causing any issues. After 2 years of the medication she's doing a lot better. It does make them eat more and drink more water. So weight gain and the potential for developing diabetes is something to keep an eye on.
