Here with tips to help relieve the itch in your dog, is veterinarian Dr. Shannon Cabell (“Ca-BELL”), Consumer Medical Lead for Petcare Dermatology at Zoetis, a global leader in pet care.

New neoplastic conditions (benign and malignant) were observed in clinical studies and post-approval. Apoquel has not been tested in dogs receiving some medications including some commonly used to treat skin conditions such as corticosteroids and cyclosporines. Do not use in breeding, pregnant, or lactating dogs. Most common side effects are vomiting and diarrhea. Apoquel has been used safely with many common medications including parasiticides, antibiotics and vaccines.
