Urinary incontinence is more common in larger breed female dogs who have been spayed. It can occur in unspayed females or in males also. Available by prescription and over the counter. Response to treatment should be seen in 4-7 days. Missed doses may cause the urine leakage to recur. Other medications are available if this one does not stop the incontinence. Consult your veterinarian.
Usual Dose and Administration Dogs: 0.5 mg/pound by mouth every 8-12 hours OR one 75 mg sustained-release capsule by mouth every 12-24 hours. Cats: 12.5 mg by mouth per cat every 8-12 hours. Usually need to treat long term, but some pets may only need to be treated for several months or seasonally.
