We share personal experiences to guide cat In addition to diarrhea, other less common side effects of gabapentin in cats include vomiting, lethargy, decreased appetite, and nausea. These side effects typically resolve within 24 hours, as gabapentin is a short-acting medication. However, if the side effects persist or become more severe, it is important to consult your veterinarian. Hi everyone: I know gabapentin can cause drowsiness and ataxia, but can it cause loose stools too? Henry takes a probiotic - fortiflora - per the vet's instructions. Henry was taking antibiotics for a bad abscess (long story short: He was abandoned by his former owners - they got dogs & booted their cats outdoors. Cat was attacked by other cats). Tuesday he was just very drowsy. Wednesday evening, he broke with diarrhea, which is listed as a side effect of gabapentin. Called the vet yesterday, who said to reduce the dose of gabapentin to half a pill. Today the diarrhea persists, and it has gotten more frequent. His appetite seems reduced today whereas he’s otherwise been eating decently. Gabapentin is a medication that is commonly prescribed to cats for various medical conditions, including chronic pain, seizures, and anxiety. While it can be an effective treatment for many feline ailments, there are some potential side effects that pet owners should be aware of. I've seen plenty of cats (and dogs) get Convenia injections, and I can't recall any significant side effects or reactions that were out of the ordinary for an antibiotic (loss of appetite, diarrhea, vomiting). Thankfully the cat is still eating, drinking, and using the litter box. But for those whose cats are on gabapentin, how many days did it take for you to notice positive effects? I have no experience with it, so I don't know in my gut if it's actually helping. And the thing is, it’s not just gabapentin that renal cats are more sensitive to—they’re more sensitive to anything that is cleared by the kidneys. Your vet wasn’t making a mistake by prescribing gabapentin to your kitty—they just should have given you a better idea of possible side effects.
