It's concerning that your dog continues to vomit even after receiving a Cerenia injection, which is typically effective in reducing nausea and stopping vomiting.
- The Cerenia injection is usually effective within a few hours.
- Continued vomiting might indicate another underlying issue.
- Monitoring your dog for additional symptoms is important.
Sometimes the underlying cause of vomiting could be more serious or varied than expected, which means additional veterinary assessment may be needed. Cerenia is a powerful anti-nausea medication, but it may not address all potential causes of vomiting, such as infections, dietary indiscretions, or more serious conditions. Ensure your dog has access to fresh water and try offering a bland diet if approved by your vet.
If this is an emergency, please seek immediate veterinary care.
