Is it safe to give my cat blood pressure and thyroid pills together?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Cat | Domestic Mediumhair | Female | spayed | 6 lbs

My cat is a ~16 year old on meds for high blood pressure (Amlodipine) and hyperthyroidism (methimazole). She gets 1/4 tablet twice daily for both meds. She is a difficult kitty to pill. Is it safe to administer both medications at the same time rather than space them out? My preferred method would be to give them to her in two pill pocket treats (which she is more likely to take). I just want to be sure there won't be an adverse reaction to giving them to her at the same time. Thanks in advance.

Hi there, and thank you turn your question. Yes, it should be fine to administer amlodipine and methimazole at the same time. I hope this helps, and that Ginger Grace is doing well in her medications!
