Trazodone is used in dogs and cats to treat anxiety and/or behavioral problems. It can also be used in cats, mostly for travel-related anxiety.
Tell your veterinarian if your pet is pregnant or used for breeding. Also tell your veterinarian if your pet is on any other medications, specifically monoamine oxidase inhibitors or antifungal medications, as these may interact with Trazodone.
Trazodone should only be given as prescribed by your veterinarian. The usual dose for cats is 50-100 mg total dose for short term use as often as your veterinarian prescribes. The usual dose for dogs is approximately 3.5 mg/lb daily or as directed by your veterinarian.
Potential side effects from Trazodone include sedation, lethargy, diarrhea, panting, vomiting, hyperactivity, shaking, agitation, and/or restlessness.
Give the missed dose as soon as you remember. If it is close to the time for the next dose, skip the missed dose and resume the normal dosing schedule. Do not give a double dose.
An overdose of Trazodone may cause seizure or coma. Contact your veterinarian or emergency veterinary clinic immediately if an overdose of Trazodone is suspected.
Do not give Trazodone to pets with known hypersensitivity to this medication. Do not give to dogs or cats with history of heart disease, liver disease or kidney disease. Use with caution in male breeding dogs, as priapism (prolonged erection) may occur while using Trazodone.

This is an ok medicine
August 26, 2020
This medicine has helped address some anxiety in my deaf dog. She has a completely different communication style and way of responding to everything in life. This medicine helps chill her out a little bit but my vet has recommended combining in it with others because my dog's case is extraordinary.

Merchant Response:You have a big heart Aric. We love hearing stories like yours.
Pros
  • Address anxiety
Cons
  • Not strong enough by itself for severe cases
