Hydromorphone is what the paperwork says. They said it was a one dose that lasts several days.
Oh wow that’s dilaudid. My vet said they primary use bube but I guess it varies by area who knows. I was on a dilaudid diet in ICU for a month after a bunch of invasive surgeries. Good to know your vet cares about your cats pain level.

I gotta get Rocky to the vet I’m concerned about his kidney function but I know last year they said he had gingivitis I really hope he doesn’t need teeth yanked he already hates the vet.

I just had her back there for what I suspect may be a UTI. She's been camping in the litter box without going. Waiting on urinalysis results, they sent her home with more pain meds at 10 bucks a pill. Oncior.

Pill? Can you actually give your cat a pill? I found it easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle.

I had chemo pills for one of my cats they were like 80 bucks a pop. I tried giving them to her straight, wrapping them in food(she would eat around it). I could give her an IV but no pill. So I payed 120 a pill for the special liquid mixture.

Anyway it’s always worth it for them, hope your kitty is alright.

Actually it's (somewhat) easier to give her a pill than to get her into the carrier. And it is totally worth every penny.
