Very hard to give pills are to big had to crush them and force down my cats throat then he started foamed and spit it up . I tried putting in wet phone he wouldn’t eat it and now he won’t eat his wet food which is his favorite. Has to be a better way to give medicine.

My first time using the chewy pharmacy for this medication and it was super easy. I recommend having ur vet fax the prescription over because it will be WAY faster than chewy trying to reach out. My cats are already feeling better. I only ran into difficultly because I needed to place an order for 2 cats but I used the chat with a pharmacist option. and they fixed it for me.

Our cat refuses to eat this pill; even in a pill pocket. It must taste awful. We also tried sneaking it into her food or covered in various favorite things. It was a waste of money to buy this medication. I will see if it can be compounded.

Consider Famciclovir better masked chews to wrap around these large pills.

Our cat requires 500 mg Famciclovir daily but is a bugger to pill. I ordered 200 mg famciclovir bitter masked 20 mg/chews for another pharmacy. I get 250 mg famciclovir

Our cat requires 500 mg Famciclovir daily but is a bugger to pill. I ordered 200 mg famciclovir bitter masked 20 mg/chews for another pharmacy. I get 250 mg famciclovir tablets from Chewy and form the "chew" - (the chew is almost putty like and i hide the tablet inside the putty chew.). It easily slides down his throat without the bitter taste. We are a creative bunch in our attempts to pill these kitties! Famciclovir helps keep her virus from developing into major flare ups.

The pill is pretty big for a cat to swallow. I personally I had to buy a pill crusher and mix it in with my baby's food. He still would lick what he could to the side. I assume it probably has a strong taste but it is difficult to get my cat to take medicine so he could've just been trying to avoid it on purpose.

Responsive & helpful

I had trouble getting pills down Bobo and they were helpful adjusting formulation and suggestion alternative forms. They made billing and shipping easy too.
