Can I give Benadryl to my goat who was just stung by red wasp on her upper eyelid. VERY swollen and closing. She is currently undergoing treatment for Mastitis. If so, what dosage???

sorry your goat got stung…yes, you can give Benadryl
it’s:
5-10 cc’s for a mini or 10-20ccs for a large breed of the liquid.
you can dissolve a tablet in warm water too 1 tab mini 2 tabs large breed. Drench.

She is a Nubian, so she's big. I crushed 2 benadryl in some molasses 30min ago and she appears to be fine. I'm a bit concerned about the underside of her lid being exposed so hoping this reduces the swelling a bit.

Good advice, hope she will be ok. 🤗
Thank you, the swelling has gone down and benadryl is doing the trick. Doesn't appear to be a problem with her Mastitis treatment.
