When we prescribe short-term steroids for pruritic dogs, do we really know what happens next? In this episode of Clinician’s Brief Partner Podcast, host Dr. Beth sits down with dermatologist Dr. Fiona Bateman to delve into a new study examining adverse events associated with short-term steroid use. Dr. Beth reflects on the impact these results can have on clinical practice, and Dr. Bateman shares how a chewable tablet can benefit compliance and quality of life for pruritic dogs and their owners.
