Guest Tiz3 Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 Is it my imagination or do dogs that are taking soloxine for thyroid problems drink more water. I have 2 dogs that are on soloxine and they seem to drink lots more than my dog that isn't on it. Has anyone else noticed this, or have I gone off the deep end.

Guest LokisMom Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 Seems that way to me too. We have one who is on Soloxine and it does seem like he drinks more. I also could be crazy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tydyelady Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 Well, Opie's on thyroid meds too and he rarely drinks when we are at work (although his water bowl is right there). And when we are home, I dont see him drinking a lot, just normal. So I dont think you are crazy, maybe your pups are just thirstier than mine.

GeorgeofNE Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 My Kramer took Soloxine for the last two years of his life, and it didn't change his drinking habits. My father's dog, Davy, is on it, and he just makes a mess with his water. My MOTHER is also on it (human version!) and she does drink a lot of water--but she always has!

Guest LokisMom Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 Cole has been on it since we got him. I suppose it is possible he just naturally drinks more water than the other two and it seems like the meds cause it because he's the only one on them.
