Dog still vomiting after Cerena injection

Thanks for reaching out with your concern. It’s understandable to be worried if your dog is still vomiting after receiving a Cerenia injection, which is usually effective in stopping nausea and vomiting.



There could be a few reasons why your pup is still feeling unwell. One possibility is that the injection hasn't had enough time to work; it can take up to a few hours for the full effects. If the vomiting is persistent, there might be an underlying issue such as a dietary indiscretion (eating something they shouldn’t have), gastrointestinal infection, pancreatitis, or even foreign body ingestion.



For now, ensure that your dog stays hydrated by offering small amounts of water frequently. You can also try withholding food for 12-24 hours and then reintroducing a bland diet, like boiled chicken and rice, in small portions if your dog's symptoms improve.



Watch for signs of dehydration like lethargy, dry gums, or excessive drooling. Additionally, if your dog cannot keep water down, exhibits listlessness, or the vomiting worsens or becomes more frequent, these are signs that a more serious issue may be at hand.



I recommend booking a video consult with Dial A Vet, where we can discuss your dog’s symptoms in more detail and determine the best course of action to ensure your furry friend feels better soon.
