Default ALLERGY medications scare me !

CAN YOU HELP ?

My 4 yr old dog, a Bichon, has severe year
round allergies. Has been on steroids after
natural remedies, including Chinese medicine failed.

New Vet has now put him on ATOPICA,
also known as CYCLOSPORINE “A”.
There are many serious side effects,
including, the usuals plus, lameness,
seizures, weight loss, urinary infections
and on and on. The other day he couldn't walk!

Has anyone had any experience with this
new $6 per capsule drug?
This is the same drug given to human for
organ transplants.

Please, if you have ANY info at all, pass
it on to me ASAP. Desperate !
