Instructions on how to give Herbs / Homeopathy

Herbs

Mix the prescribed amount of herbs into 1-2 tablespoons of wet/canned or smelly fish food, yogurt or cottage cheese. Feed the pet's full meal about 20 minutes later.

** If diarrhea, vomiting, or depressed appetite occurs, STOP the herbs for 24 hours and then re-start at 1/2 the dose. Please call if you are experiencing problems or have concerns.

Homeopathic Remedies

These should be given at least 20 minutes before a meal or 30 minutes after a meal. Give the small pellets directly into the mouth (they do not have a bad taste). Homeopathic remedies will also work with less cooperative animal patients when placed in their food, however, giving them without food is preferred.

Please give the remedy only as prescribed, as the frequency is an important part of the treatment.
