Frequently Asked Questions about Heartburn Medicine for Dogs
What is heartburn in dogs?
Heartburn in dogs is like heartburn in humans, an unpleasant and potentially damaging reversal of gastric fluid into the esophagus. As in humans, heartburn in dogs can be a temporary acid reflux issue that passes, or it can be a chronic condition known as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Signs of heartburn in dogs include licking the lips, lowered appetite, difficulty swallowing, regurgitation, cough and general restlessness or discomfort. If you suspect your dog has heartburn, see your vet for an examination.
Do I need a prescription for heartburn medicine for dogs?
You do need a prescription for heartburn medicine for dogs. Your vet may prescribe a medication that lowers the production of acid in the stomach, or another medicine to treat the underlying cause of your dog's acid reflux. Once your vet recommends a treatment for your dog's heartburn, you can have it delivered directly to your door by ordering online from the Chewy pharmacy. You don't even need a paper prescription when you place your order. Just enter your vet's contact information and we'll call them directly to verify the prescription.
