Assorted odds and ends...
Feb. 8th, 2008 08:11 pmSo I had a minor fit today while at the store, buying medicine for my dog, wondering "The vet said 'Pepcid' but maybe he meant Pepto-Bismol??" I ended up buying both, and calling the vet when I got home (attempts to remember their number were futile... i dialed a wrong number three times in a row. I knew the numbers involved just not the right order.). So the vet assistant tells me yes, one a day with his food, and I'm like "wait, is that PEPCID or PEPTO?" And she replies "Oh... we usually recommend Pepto-Bismol, but both work."
Gah. Not helpful. Because the vet definitely said Pepcid, but that seems more oriented towards just y'know, heartburn, while pepto is for upset stomachs too. But pepcid seems like it works more for long term daily use. Anyways, I went with the Pepto, and the dog actually ate the chewable tablet, much to his and my surprise. (He has taken the liquid form so long as I use bread to soak it up.) Seems good so far, but we'll know tomorrow for sure.
On an unrelated note, what's up with the teenage boys hanging out in the bakery section of the grocery store? Dude, I get it -- your friend probably works there or whatever. But you don't look cool leaning against the danishes. Go elsewhere, and don't congregrate near my baked goods, damn it.
ETA: I had a poll but LJ hates me and it's not working properly. Why?!?
