How long ahould I give this medication to my dog?
-
Dexamethasone eye drops can be used for many inflammatory eye conditions. Due to its wide variety of therapeutic uses, there is no determined length of therapy for every pet. The type and severity of disease will determine the appropriate length of dexamethasone therapy. Contact your veterinarian to determine if they want you to stop using it after a certain number of days, or if they would prefer that you taper down the number of drops per day as the inflammation resolves.
