My 13-year-old Shih Tzu just started taking phenobarbital 16.2 mg on Tuesday evening. He was given the prescribed dose (1 pill every 12 hours) yesterday. About an hour after his morning pill today, he became very unstable, walking as if he was very drunk. My vet is closed today and never warned me about any behavior changes.
