Gastrointestinal Ulcerations in Cats

Gastrointestinal Ulcerations in Cats

By: Dr. Bari Spielman

Section: Follow-up

Optimal treatment for your cat requires a combination of home and professional veterinary care. Follow-up can be critical, especially if your cat does not rapidly improve. Administer all prescribed medication and diet as directed. Alert your veterinarian if you are experiencing problems treating your cat.

Discontinue and avoid any medication or substance that may be causing or worsening ulceration. Depending on the underlying cause of gastrointestinal ulceration, it may be necessary to return to your veterinarian for reevaluation of certain tests.
