Fluoxetine (Generic) Tablets for Dogs, 10-mg, 1 tablet

My girl came to me after weeks of trauma with her previous owner. Not only had she been neglected, she required a highly invasive surgery to save her life. After she healed, she had continued issues due to anxiety who only made her health issues more difficult to manage. She was fairly calm deapite all this but had separation anxiety which would make her poop all over her cage when left alone. The problem was that after an accident within our household, she became extremely fearful of noise in or around the house and could not leave the house for vet visits or play dates without panicking and freezing up. She could even to go potty outside! She would shake, sleep very little, was pottying in My girl came to me after weeks of trauma with her previous owner.

She could even to go potty outside! She would shake, sleep very little, was pottying in the house, and could not handle being left unattended. After a few months of this medication, she has returned to her friendly, outgoing, cuddly, confident self. This med does not mess with her sensitive stomach and there have been no side effects at all, something we were very cautious about due to her congenital heart condition that could easily destabilize. A QUICK NOTE! This medication requires at least 4 weeks to see an effect, but it took 8 weeks before my dog was finally back to normal, so keep that in mind when starting it. … more

We have tried both back and forth and clearly, only the human form, which we fill at the regular pharmacy is the only one that works for my cat. When we use this that we get from chewy, it is as if he has taken nothing.

Because of the pandemic, I decided to switch from my pharmacy which was filling my dog's prescription to getting it filled by Chewy. Couldn't be happier. They kept me informed of interactions with the vet and delivery dates. Excellent service. I have been getting many other things from Chewy over the years but this is an added advantage!

Our vet prescribed this for our cat for unexplained instant anxiety. She only takes 1/2 pill daily though. She is much calmer and spending more time with the family out from under the bed. She never used to hide like she was doing. At first I was concerned about the blue coating...would it be sweet... If it is it's not stopping our girl from eating it crushed in her food along with felimazole which is bright pink and coated as well. I agree that the are harder to snap in half even with the scoring, but I can use a pill cutter and the pill doesn't shatter.

The pharmacy process was smooth. However my dog died and didn't have a chance to use these so I can't really rate the product.

My Labrador was diagnosed (by two different behaviorists) with anxiety over the summer. I was sure that training and routine would help, but both recommended a low dose of Fluoxetine as a companion to training. He started on a very low dose (10mg) and is now up to 20mg, which seems to be working well. As they said, it did take about six weeks to see any changes, and at first they were incremental. No negative side effects for him, and he still has his same puppy personality. What seems to be improving with the Fluoxetine is his general nervousness. The previous trainer described him as "A 12 on a scale of 1-10" and now he's about a 9, which makes sense for a young and energetic Labrador.

The previous trainer described him as "A 12 on a scale of 1-10" and now he's about a 9, which makes sense for a young and energetic Labrador. His anxiety is fear-based so our goal is to continue training and counter-conditioning him, and hopefully weaning him off of this med in a year. Many people judged us and made jokes about putting our dog on meds but believe me - after trying everything else (music, Thundershirt, essential oils, accupunture, more exercise, CBD, etc.) we were really hopeless and discouraged and unable to leave the house. This has made a positive difference for the dog and for us. Don't be afraid to advocate for your dog and talk with your vet about anxiety treatment, recommendations, etc. It has been a life saver for us and he seems to be thriving now! My one problem with the pills is that they crumble/crush when you try to split them. … more

Vet prescribed for my 3 year old female OCD chihuahua who was marking and overly stressed at life in general, including people and dogs. We have observed a difference. Marking stopped the same week we began administering. Working on the socialization with a trainer combined with the medication. She doesn't seem to be as impulsively reactive.

My cat suffers from a bit of anxiety, has peed in places she's not supposed to and has a tendency to lash out on our other cat. The Fluoxetine really seems to help her with all of those issues.

So this does NOT stop the aggression 100%. I noticed the hissing and the aggression against the new male cat ( all females before) his calmed down really fast. They will still hiss at him if he gets too close however i was able to introduce them sooner and they are starting to take to him faster after only 3 days! I also have the help of calming collars and sprays.

My vet prescribed this for my kitty who marks in the house when there are strays around outside. So far, it's working! Chewy offered the best price for this hard to find tablet version of the drug. They worked directly with our vet, so I didn't even have to mail the paper scrip to them. Fast shipping to! If it continues to work, I will put it on auto-fill, and save a little bit more money.
