Although effective, this medication should be used with caution. You should first find out the type of ulcer your pet is suffering from before you give him carafate.
I take carafate for bile reflux gastritis and excess bile salts in my stomach. The bile is supposed to stay in your duodenum (first part of small intestine) and if it refluxes back into the stomach it causes inflammation (gastritis). Too much of this bile can cause diahrrea as it did for me. The carafate puts the protective coating over inflammation and helps it heal and also soaks up extra bile. It really helps me a lot. It can cause constipation so you have to play with the dose a little bit.
