Here's why:
* Dosage: Indomethacin is a powerful medication, and the correct dosage for your dog depends on their size, age, and health condition.
* Side effects: Indomethacin can have serious side effects in dogs, including gastrointestinal issues, kidney problems, and liver problems.
* Interactions: Indomethacin can interact with other medications your dog may be taking.
* Underlying conditions: Giving indomethacin to your dog without a vet's diagnosis could mask or worsen underlying medical conditions.
Please contact your veterinarian immediately for advice on how to treat your dog. They can assess your dog's individual needs and determine if indomethacin is appropriate and, if so, what the correct dosage should be.
