We had a dog who was on phenobarbital to control her seizures. It worked well but it's not a do-it-yourself treatment. The vet needs to make the diagnosis and it is a prescription medication. She was monitored by the vet for the correct level in her blood. The prescription was less expensive to buy at a regular pharmacy than from the vet. We used the Target pharmacy.
At first the dog was a little groggy but that passed and she seemed fine. The good thing was that it did a good of controlling her seizures.
