Two types of mucoceles are recognized: (1) the retention type, in which the mucin pooling is confined within a dilated excretory duct or cyst, and (2) the extravasation type, in which mucin is spilled into the connective tissues from a ruptured or traumatized salivary gland duct.
When dosing by weight for diarrhea or generalized upset stomach, itâs recommended that the standard liquid Pepto Bismol formula (17.5 mg of bismuth subsalicylate per milliliter) is administered at a rate of 0.5 mL per pound, or 1 U.S. teaspoon for every 10 pounds of a dogâs body weight.
While Pepto Bismol isnât know to be harmful, there are usually better alternatives for dog digestion such as a quality pet-formulated probiotic. The chemical makeup of Pepto is much like aspirin and too much can be bad. Be sure that your dog gets a conservative dose based on body weight.
