HI, I joined beacause my little doggie (a 11 year old Norwich Terrier) has been prescribed Galliprant 20mg 1x daily. He was suffering from arthritis in his left shoulder and I’m sure other joints . He did great wanting to do our usual 1/2 mile walk in the neighborhood circle. All was fine, but now a little over a month on the pills, he has been suffering from extreme dirrehea. Vet gave us pills for dirrehea, antibiotic and after a few days 4 “immodium” pills. I modified his diet (he loves to eat) still no relief. Although he still has his appetite ans drinks enough water, not as much as usual, I can’t help but wonder if this “Miracle drug” had caused this. I pray not. But until then, we have stopped the pill on & off, now it’s 4 days he still had problem ( not as much mucous). My little guy has also recently started losing his vision, vet sees a Cataract , but thinks it may also be other vision issues. (Taking us 3 1/2 weeks to get into an eye specialists for him. So needless to say I’m concerned both issues started after starting Galliprant . However, he does take pressure pills, and had an issue with high pressure which could be the cause of eye problems. I am in no way at this time saying Galluprant caused these problems just looking to see if anyone else had a similar issue. thanks
