Trazodone not helping much for a pet that has to travel on board muzzled
What they asked
I will bring her muzzled w trazadone on board but it dont help much.
Sorry she is giving you concern for a flight. Trazadone is tricky to medicate. It needs to be given at least 2 hours before the exciting or stressful event. It also regularly needs to be given the night before or morning of the event as well. If trazadone isn't enough, go to your vet and there are several other medications that can be added to be a good anti-anxiety regiment.

Ask Dylan a questionAnswered from your description alone, without examining your pet. That makes this general information, not a diagnosis, treatment plan, or prescription, and it is not intended to establish a veterinarian-client-patient relationship. There is only so much anyone can tell from a message. For guidance specific to your pet, book an appointment so a vet can examine them properly.
