Is 1/4 of 20mg famotidine safe for my cat, and when to give it?

Question

So I was told to give my hyperthyroidism and early stage kidney failure cat 1/4 tab of famotidine I gave my cat 1/4 of 20mg tab of famotidine I hope that’s ok and also gave it to her half hour after her methimazole medication I read online that I should have given her 1/4 tab of 10 mg famotidine not the 20 mg also heard I should have waited two hours after meds and food :( I’m leaving for a day and a half out of town and I’m stressing thinking I did something awful! Please help!!! Thank you! Pet's info: Cat | Domestic Longhair | Female | spayed | 14 years and 6 months old | 12 lbs

The quarter tablet that you gave is absolutely fine. And the time at which you gave the famotidine is absolutely fine. What you did did not cause any harm so do not worry. I would stick with what was originally told for the famotidine dose though. I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any further questions or concerns and I'll be more than happy to help.
