Help with Cisapride

[Katie Marie]

My little piggy is on the smaller side, and she is having some chronic tummy gas build up. I will weigh her tomorrow (it's currently late for me)
But I wanna get her some Cisapride to help with her tummy. I need to know what Strength the dose should be (mg/mL), but for a total of 30 mL (the bottle size).
If anyone has experience with that- I could really use the help.
(Also any other recommendations/links on medication or vitamins to buy for a piggy with tummy gas would be helpful! I already have critical care for her, and ordered some vitamin C. I got her critical care since it seems that any veggies upset her tummy, and yes she has been to the vet many times- but it never seems to go away completely. She isn't in dire states right now, she plays with her sister, and eats plenty of hay. However if it does get any worse- she's going straight to the vet. Right now, she is being monitored in a separate cage, mostly for me- so I feel better about watching her.)

Here is a picture of her and her sister! She is the lighter colored piggie:

Welcome to the forum

I’m sorry to hear of her issues

As we are a UK based forum we have to follow UK medication laws. Cisapride is a prescription only medication so only a vet can give advice on what dosage is needed. While we may share dosages we have used in our own situations, it doesn’t mean it’s an appropriate dose in every case.

We dont advise medical separations due to the stress and potential risk to their bond. Monitoring is best done via daily weight checks.

I hope she is ok
