Questions
1.why does it cost more to buy in bulk? It is 7 cents more per pill for the bottle 100 vs buying a single pill. 2. why are all the prices the same for different mg's? Usually less mg:s are less money etc. you might as well get the larger ones and split
Doesn’t  Apoquel come in a tube to put into ears .? !
- Ours is in pill form. Does not go in ears.
Helpful?
The product description says it's for 30 tablets, but the pictures show 100 tablets. What gives?
- Apoquel is sold by unit. So you decided how many pills do you want to buy like 100 ,30 , 24 or just one.
Helpful?
Is the price really per tablet or bottle? Can this be purchased over the counter?
- It’s per pill and it needs prescription. It’s an expensive med but it works great for allergies
Helpful?
Has anyone’s pups experienced any side effects from this medication? Thank youÂ
- Not that I can tell! Â My dog is super itchy/allergic to God knows what and this helps him! He's ten years old, on other meds too, and I didn't notice any negative changes when he started on this.

My dog is currently on Apoquel 5.4 mg once per day. He is 25 lbs. Lately, that hasn't been lasting a full 24 hrs so his vet said that I could give him one 5.4 in the a.m. and then another 5.4 in the p.m. for two weeks and then back down to one pill again. The other choice was to give one 5.4 and a half of a 3.6 at once in the morning, which the vet advised not do that option since 5.4 and 1/2 of the 3.6 is a lot of Apoquel at once. But, isn't 5.4 twice per day a lot, too? I'm confused.
Both of my dogs were prescribed Apoquel for allergic dermatitis & chronic itching. It has been very successful, but at a cost of $2.23 per tablet it's very expensive. One of my dogs had chronic ear infections requiring 2 separate ear surgeries (ear flap hematoma & myringotomy). Since starting Apoquel NO ear infections. Are there any resources for lower cost of this medication? Your comments on long term use of Apoquel would be appreciated.
I have a 14ib dog with skin allergies. Ive had 2 consults and both vets suggest this apoquel medication. THE DIFFERENCE IS IN THE STRENGTH FOR A 14LB DOG. What strength would you suggest?
Our vet prescribed Apoquel 5.4mg for our dog, because he has been searching and licking. We found a few scabbed up sores on his underbelly which was why we took him to see them. We have been reading about the medication and are concerned about wether it is actually safe to give. What are your thoughts?
My dog has allergies and did really well on apoquel. He didn’t do so well on Benadryl. What other over the counter allergy medicine can I try for a 100lb dog?
My 14.9 pound 11 month old puppy took a 5.4 mg Apoquel and 2.4 mg of temaril p. Will this harm him. The apoquel was not for him. He took it from my 12 year old dog that suffers from allergies as well.
Constant allergies and ear infections. Apoquel works well but told not a good idea to take long term. Any safer alternatives out there? Any OTC shampoos I can try? Does not tolerate fish/oil... does best on LID duck and potato food.
He has horrible grass allergies, to the point that his paws and chest bleed every summer, even with using a mild oatmeal shampoo to wash off paws when he comes in the house. Keeping him IN the house. Using a hot spot and itch relief and Benedryl. Apoquel works great for him, but I can not afford 2.00 per pill for him. Any other suggestions? Sorry the photos do not show the true scope of how bad it is....hard to hold him still and take photos.
My baby has bad allergies and she is prescribed apoquel dosage is 3.6mg tablet and we are only suppose to give her half. So i was wondering if we can ask our vet to up the dosage because it seems like the 3.6mg isnt working as well anymore? Thank you.
My dog has been on Apoquel 16 mg once a day for 2 years for allergies. She is really itchy and her eyes are runny about 12 hours after taking the pill. I would like to give her Zyrtec before bed to get her through the night. Will this interact with the Apoquel? She weighs 80 lbs. How much should she take? 5mg or 10 mg?
Can my dog take prednisone and apoquel at the same time?
My dog has been dealing with allergies for a very long time… We have been to multiple veterinarians and been on multiple medications the only one of which that seems to work in the slightest is Apoquell, but we are running out of money with all of the vet bills just being seen every time let alone the price of the medication… Is there anyway to get this prescription called in for him? He’s absolutely miserable and we don’t know what to do. Thank you So much.
