Phenobarbital (PB) can induce hematological and coagulation disorders in both animals and humans, but its effects on hemostasis have been little investigated and are poorly understood in dogs. The aim of this prospective observational study was to assess coagulation using TEG in a population of dogs with idiopathic epilepsy treated with PB. TEG was performed in blood samples from dogs with idiopathic epilepsy that were divided in three groups: two groups of treated dogs that were on phenobarbital treatment for less or more than 6 months, and a control ...
