Check with your vet about the dosage - giving too much medicine (to dogs or humans) can have serious effects on the liver and kidneys.

yes you can if it is having some sort of allergic reacton. Toy dogs should only get 1/2 medium dogs 1 and big dogs 2 pills. follow the instructions on the package for how often. If you are giving them any other medicine you should probably talk to the vet first, just in case they have a bad interaction with eachother.

Yes, for allergies.
A dog that weighs 12 pounds would get a half of a 25mg caplet, so the dog would actually get 12.5 mgs. If your dog is a big breed, ask your vet. In fact, ask either way, then you will have the peace of mind of your vet verifying the amount.

call your vet first. They say it is ok and calms a dog dog and is good if a dog has a lot of allergies affecting them but you still want to talk to your vet about it and make sure your dog can have it because some dogs might have a bad reaction to it plus you want to know the exact dossage to give and how often

I agree with the gal above me, it's ok, but you need to call the vet for the correct dosage for his weight.
