Many things can cause vomiting in dogs, including toxins, various drugs, diseases or even parasitic infections. And, well, we all know that dogs vomit sometimes. Acute vomiting is when vomiting suddenly happens and can last anywhere from a few minutes to a few days. Many times, a dog may keep vomiting even after the stomach is empty of everything except bile. If your pet experiences acute vomiting, contact your veterinarian.
Cerenia is non-sedating, which means it doesn’t cause drowsiness. So when you reach your destination, your buddy will be his or her usual self. This is different from medications such as Benadryl and Dramamine, which may cause drowsiness and are not FDA-approved for vomiting in dogs.
Cerenia is the first and only FDA-approved anti-vomiting medication for dogs. Unlike Benadryl and Dramamine, Cerenia doesn’t cause drowsiness, is available in multiple dosing sizes and has been clinically tested to safely prevent vomiting in dogs.
The active ingredient of Cerenia is maropitant citrate, a neurokinin-1 (NK-1) receptor antagonist. Maropitant blocks the action of substance P — a neurotransmitter involved in vomiting — in the central nervous system. By blocking substance P from binding to the NK1 receptor, maropitant can prevent vomiting.
Cerenia starts working quickly to prevent or treat your dog’s vomiting. It’s effective for about 24 hours.
In clinical studies of Cerenia, common adverse reactions noted were hypersalivation, drowsiness, lethargy, anorexia, and diarrhea.

Most importantly it’s awesome being able to get this stuff for literally half what it costs at the vets office. My dog has been prescribed it daily, but I only give it as needed as it’s obviously too expensive for daily. Also she doesn’t seem to need it everyday. She still has more good days than bad but when I can tell she’s got a flare up from her inoperable liver tumor I’ll give it to her right away in the AM. Usually by evening she’s interested in at least some food which tells me she’s feeling much better.
These pills are a God send for our dog. She has digestive issues that pop up out of the blue and her stomach just starts gurgling. The sooner she gets two tablets, the better she feels. They do make her a little lethargic for a short time but I think it gives her stomach time to rest. Sure beats having her throw up or have really bad diarrhea. She is also on a very strict diet with prescription food and treats but it works for us.
It really great medicine for nausea and motion sickness. This helps my cats out a lot when they're in need of it. I just think it's really priced high.... So it's not the medicine of choice I will use other nausea medicine unless it's A severe case.
I really appreciated the timely manor Chewy delivered medications for my service dog. I took him on his first cruise which he loved. No need for the pills thankfully.
My 19 month old Pyrenean Mastiff pup gets car sick all the time - drools like crazy and often vomits. This is expensive but works. No vomiting after 45 minute car ride x2 in one day.
Precisely what my dog needs. He sometimes swallows things that are harmful. Chewy is able to keep me supplied with the medicine that my 'vet prescribes. Can't say enough good things about Chewy. Thank you. S.Weinstock
My Connie has lymphoma in her intestine and PEI, two reasons for upset tummy. She is not feeling well more and more because of the cancer, but this medicine along with appetite suppress enhancement really does work to make her feel better
Very helpful and affordable. A wonderful way to get your pet medications
I appreciate Chews quick service but in this case I wish the pills didnt have to be cut up into quarters
My 10 yr old kitty was diagnosed with lymphoma 3 months ago and although he is responding well to chemo, his weight is a serious concern because he's very small. Last week the vet said I could stop giving this to him since he wasn't vomiting and had a good appetite. Well his appetite sharply decreased and my 6.4 lb kitty got even skinner! I put him back on this and his appetite returned. I won't take him off this again!! He needs ever pound he can get! Word to the wise... get a cat/dog "piller" from Amazon, especially if you are having difficulty giving your fur baby a pill. This allows you to accurately aim the pill towards the back of the tongue. It is super easy to use and a lot less stressful for us both.
