My dose is 22mg twice a day for a dog that is approx. 48lbs. Is that too much to start with?? I was under the impression that this would be a low starting dose. Was your dog's 10mg starting dose once a day or twice?? I worry about the cortisol level dropping too fast if my total daily dose is too high.
I am very comfortable with the explanation of the ACTH draws and will make my needs known when I make the appointment with the office in about 10 days. I will also make sure that the same vet will be there in case there are problems as she agreed that we would follow Dr. Peterson's guidelines - she may not have informed the front office gals yet.
