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.
1Pepto Bismol is safe for most dogs for quick and temporary relief from an upset stomach and/or diarrhea. 2Some dogs should not be given Pepto, if they have certain allergies or blood disorders, among other issues. 3Not all brands of bismuth subsalicylate are the same.
