    My old girl civie hasn't been acting herself and threw up this morning. I want to give her some pepcid but can't remember which kind it was or how much to give. It's been awhile since Tabby needed any I have forgotten. Any advice asap would be great.

    It is the original strength Pepcid AC (10 mg famotidine). Do NOT use the Pepcid Complete. For Minou (13 lbs), the instructions were 1/4 tablet BID, about 1/2 hour before meals.

    Thanks. I will give her some and see if it helps. I will give her more tonight and hope that helps her tummy. She has asthma and uses the Aerokat inhaler so not sure if that has anything to do with it. She has been on that for a few months now. I posted on the feline asthma site too.

    I remember which one by thinking "AC" stands for "All Cats". :lol:

    And yes, it's 1/4 tablet.
