I have an 11-year-old dog with worsening tracheal collapse, currently on hycodan and low-dose steroids. Anxiety is a major issue, and I've tried Valium and Xanax without success. My vet started trazodone today. How long should I wait for an effect, and can acepromazine be used with his hydrocodone?

My dachshund, Farmer, who is 12 years old, has swelling above and below his eye since Thursday afternoon. The swelling seems to itch and looks fluidy.
