Apoquel has been a miracle for us. My poodle was on prednisone off and on and now has type 1 diabetes, and there is a correlation between prednisone and the disease. She has had every other option they could try, and the day she started apoquel the itching subsided. She takes a small dose every night and when I suspect an outbreak is coming or she starts licking her paws I add a dose - just 1, and it's under control. If we hadn't found this drug we may have had to make a decision that we didn't want to make -the discomfort was just that bad. She has relief and we have our baby!
