Belindajust wanted to clarify. (It was me who started the confusion,
using the term prozac!)
By prozac (below) stopping it completely, do you mean the fluoxetine
that you used--the fluoxetine stopped it completely.?
If the foaming issue is easily fixed (as it seems to be in everyone's
experience) then it's def worth her trying the fluoxetine again.
Thanks again!

That is also what I did with Cody, we started with the most
commonly used of the drugs (amytriptaline), we tried 2 or 3 before
trying the prozac, they all helped but only the prozac stopped it
completely.
We had Cody's fluoxetine's compounded into a transdermal gel that we
rubbed on the inside of his ear. Belinda

Different drugs have different absorbtion rates. We could not do
transdermal prozac wth Peepers because we could not tailor the dose
reliabily when given through the skin. If your vet prescribed a certain
med, ask the vet at thaty time if transdermal is an option.

Just curious, can other drugs be made into creams to be used in
the ear? I have a 24 pound foster cat with a bad URI, and he had to
spend a week at the vet (at a cost of over $300) because I absolutely
could not give him oral meds. Can this be done with Clavamox or Baytril?

I tried amytriptaline (that's probably spelled
wrong!) on Ruben for
inappropriate urination.I now believe that it was
his first signs
that something was wrong with him internally
My daughter used the same drug (we had it compounded
into a cream we
could rub into the ear...pilling was out of the
question) on one of
her male cats...her cat became more calm, but I'm
not sure it
completely solved the problem.
I have heard people are having great results with the
plug ins that
release certain pheremones that are calming, but I
haven't tried them
yet myself.
Good luck, it's one of a cat owner's biggest
problems!!
