Hi,

If this were one of my babies, I would want to wait until the cat's appetite is better before re-starting the methimazole. This is something that you would have to clear with your vet, though. I would also ask about just giving the methimazole once daily at first, since your kitty seems to be sensitive to it.

Methimazole is also available in a transdermal gel that is absorbed through the skin. It isn't absorbed as well in this form but it is a reasonable option for cats that cannot tolerate the oral form of the drug or those difficult to medicate. It would have to be special ordered by your vet through a compounding pharmacy.

Regards,
PHKitkat
