Rated 5 out of 5 This medication is a lifesaver!
I have a 10 month old Saint Bernard that has megaesophagus. She had a feeding tube placed since her esophagus essentially doesn't work, but I noticed she was developing a cough. After a visit with her internal medicine specialist, she was started on this medication for esophagitis - inflammation of the esophagus because she doesn't get any food by mouth. She gets one tablet, 3 times a day in a slurry orally, and she has done WONDERFUL on it. No coughing, not dry mouth, or ulcerations anymore. This fairly cheap medication has improved her quality of life, and makes her so much more comfortable. I will keep her on this medication for the rest of her life.

Rated 4 out of 5 The difference in my dog is night and day
My dog has been on Carafate since I got her from the pound last year. I tried taking her off the medication for a week and started noticing a difference by day three. I'll not do that again. She may be old, but if a pill can make her confortable so be it.
