The management of over-correction of hyponatremia is similar to the general approach to hyponatremia: 1  Defend the intravascular volume. 2  Prevent the sodium from increasing any further Fluid restriction: make the patient NPO and stop IV fluids. 3  Consult Nephrology.
Heartworm treatment recovery is often rough. Heartworm treatment often causes pain to spread throughout the dog's lower back muscles and makes the dog feel nauseated. Both symptoms will usually ease in a couple of days. As the worms begin dying off, it is common for a dog to cough or gag.
The cost of treating dogs with heartworm usually runs around $1,000, but can be $500-$1,100 or more depending on the size of the dog and the stage of the disease. For cats, there is no known treatment for heartworm. However, cats seem to be more resistant to heartworm and, if infected, they sometimes recover on their own.
