My dog Amber weighs 72 pounds, and initially I tried her on the 60 mg dose for a few weeks and it was not helping much, so I then increased to 90….no real improvement there either…then when I could not obtain the 100 mg’s I tried a 120 mg a day and this helped…but now after two months her stool is not good. I have stopped the galliprant now for a day and will go one more day off then restart with 90 again and try to not use it daily…if this does not work will have to return to Metacam. In general I have found that Amber has better mobility with Metacam though it is not great for the organs. So far though her liver and kidney panels are ok. I was just hoping galliprant would be the magic nsaid the rest of her life since she is 14 now. I have her on Mercola probiotic and Colon Rescue for soft stool which has been helpful but not enough with this recent daily higher dose of galliprant. The galliprant study seems to indicate that you can give your dog a high does with few issues but I am very weary of that now.
I am glad to have found this galliprant forum as there is so very little review info out there with this new drug.
