Your vet will assess your pet’s symptoms and medical history to recommend the most appropriate next steps. Here are some general examples of potential treatment costs:
-
Anti-diarrheal medications typically cost $15–$50 per week
-
Probiotics often range in price from $15–$30 per box
-
Mucosal protectants usually cost $15–$30 per bottle
-
Prescription gastrointestinal diets range from $3–$5 per can or $30–$70 per bag
-
Antibiotics (if needed) typically vary from $15–$75 per week

FAQ
Vetster connects pet parents with licensed veterinarians through virtual appointments, making it easy to get professional guidance for dog diarrhea from home. Your veterinarian can assess your dog's symptoms, discuss possible causes, and recommend appropriate treatment options and next steps.
An online vet visit for dog diarrhea starts with booking a virtual appointment at a time that works for you. During the consultation, a licensed veterinarian will review your dog's symptoms and medical history and create a personalized treatment plan based on your pet's needs.
An online vet may prescribe medication for your dog's diarrhea when it is clinically appropriate and permitted by local regulations. Treatment recommendations depend on the suspected cause of the diarrhea, your dog's overall health, and the veterinarian's assessment during the appointment.
Getting diarrhea medication through Vetster is simple once a veterinarian has prescribed it. Prescriptions can be ordered through VetsterRx where available, with transparent pricing and home delivery, or filled at a pharmacy of your choice.
Emergency care may be needed when diarrhea is accompanied by severe symptoms such as bloody or black stool, repeated vomiting, weakness, collapse, dehydration, pale gums, or a bloated abdomen. A virtual appointment can help assess less urgent cases and guide you on whether in-person treatment is needed.
The cost of treatment for dog diarrhea varies depending on the underlying cause, your dog's size, and the type of treatment recommended. Common therapies such as anti-diarrheal medications, probiotics, gastrointestinal diets, and other supportive treatments can vary widely in cost, so a veterinary consultation is the best way to receive an accurate estimate for your pet's specific situation.
