I’m late on this, but Flame has never had ketones in his urine dips.

I tested regularly during the 12 months that Peaches was on Steglatro and never found positive keotones.  (She was taken off of Steglatro in August 2022 for elevated GGT.)

Possibly. A few of the horses on Invokana have. It's not too surprising.

Ranger was negative for ketones, all was as it should be. It’s taken this long to get a sample 😂

Hi Joan,

Is your vet in touch with Dr. Kellon because doing urine tests is one of the ways to know that the medication is working.

Thanks,

My vet hasn’t advised that I need to do urine tests, I’ll get some. 

Thanks

Oh boy, I just noticed the strip mark for ketones.  I’m not sure how I missed that!  I will pay better attention next time!

Heather,

Did your veterinarian get the background information and explain to you about testing the urine with a dipstick?  You can get the urine dipsticks online or at any drug store.

 I do have urine dipsticks, but I don’t know how to read if ketones are in the urine.    Mine says it tests 10 parameters, ketones is not listed.  Her glucose shows as dark brown on the reagent strip.
