Cat has lump between his shoulder blades
My cat has a lump in between his shoulder blades that I shortly after he was neutered. I took him to the vet and he prescribed Practin (twice daily), Melonex (twice), and Dexona (once) for 5 days.

The first dose of all three made him very weak and dizzy and maybe he had headache because he kept calm when I was patting his head. Now after surfing through Google and checking all the side effects, I have decided to give his Melonex just once and not give Practin to him because Practin is an antihistamine and anti-serotonin, which I don't see any need to give. He also he seems to be effected more by Practin than the other 2 drugs.

Please share any of your experience or thoughts about this. He also seem to have diarrhea now.

Never discontinue a course of treatment without talking to a doctor or vet. There may be interactions between the drugs which make the three drug combination safer. In fact it's possible that some of the drugs are specifically to manage side effects of the main drug. You don't know; I don't know either; you pay the vet for their expertise so work with them to address your concerns.

Or pay for a second opinion from another vet.
