Hi I brought my dog back to the vet yesterday. She had 2 seizures yesterday – one while she was at the vet. Doc prescribed Gabapentin, 2x a day for 3 days. Says if she still has seizures after that, she might have to be on that medication permanently. 🙁

Upon taking the 1st dose, my dog didn’t have seizures for the next 8hrs or so, at least I didn’t see one, but had a seizure about 9 hrs after taking the first dose. Gave her a 2nd dose a few hours after. So far no seizures, but I noticed she’s moving like she’s had a little too much to drink.. Kinda unsteady, but she’s alert and she ate well. But she’s a bit uncoordinated walking around. Looked up possible side effects of Gabapentin and uncoordinated movements, dizziness, jerky movements are among them. Not sure if that’s a cause for concern. Will update her vet later as it’s 4am here.
