    hi, any advice please. My puppy has been prescribed 10 ml oral meloxoral for some lameness in front leg but he now has awful diarrhoea and am wondering whether it could be the meloxoral. Any one experienced this and what did you do.

    Sorry I am getting used to this forum thing and I have posted twice...I’m clearly that desperate for advice though

    Hello, we have used this before without trouble, but it is a non steroidal pain killer and they are notorious for causing tummy/gastric problems. I would suspect it could be the cause, but have a chat to your vet as they will know for sure. Hope your pup is on the mend soon.
