If your pet has gained or lost weight, that could explain a cost increase. So far, Apoquel is the alternative to most other drugs for itching, not the other way around (nothing is considered the alternative for this as this is the newest drug). It replaces (we hope successfully) chronic steroid use and certainly more useful than antihistamines ...
It is a shampoo that in non-drying to the skin and can be used daily. Ollie has been checked for everything, Demodex, yeast, fungus, etc. and our vet is convinced that he has inhaled allergies. If the Apoquel doesn't work, we will have allergy testing done in June.

Last Spring I had my then-2 yr old neutered male St. Bernard to the vet for a rather nasty fungal ear infection and when the vet noticed that he was scratching a little and licking at his paws a little, he surmised he had allergies and placed him on Apoquel. There were never any wounds, hot spots and ...
A dog teaches a boy fidelity, perseverance, and to turn around three times before lying down.”. – Josh Billings. Apoquel stops the itch factor from reaching a dog's brain, so in that sense it is better than Benadryl. Neither of those 2 drugs can cure allergies, but at least they offer some relief to most dogs.
Stop using apoquel now!!! Yes, this drug works to stop the itch but at the cost of KILLING and DESTROYING your dog from the inside out!!!! Just do a Google search and read all the medical journals on the tests and results - very alarming!!!

I pay $27 for fifteen 3.6 mg. tablets. He takes a half of a tablet per day, so that's a 30 day supply. Your vet should be willing to write a ...

I think her allergies are environmental but I am not 100% sure and the vet doesn't know either. I was going to get a refill of Apoquel but some websites have warnings and one 'natural treatments ...
Not OTC, but my Beckett has been on Apoquel for the past year & a half plus. He's always had some random seasonal-type allergy symptoms (never severe enough to medicate for) but in May of 2022 he started having other physical issues that our vet determined were related to allergies & put him on Apoquel.
And though there are cases where Apoquel sadly does NOT work (about 1 out of 30 dogs), it is an amazing drug so far in the fight against severe canine allergies. Not perfect, but pretty good so far. Now a new product is available with NO side effects and works very well for dogs that have allergies NOT related to food.
