Hi all, At least 2 of my kitties have herpes and I have been reading a lot on here about the benefits of adding lactoferrin to their diet. Which brand(s) do you like and how much should I give? I assume that I can give this to them safely in addition to the L-lysine? Thank you so much in advance!!

Lactoferrin...which brand and how much?

Yes, in fact it was this study that found the combination of lysine and lactoferrin to be more effective than lysine alone: http://www.medwelljournals.com/abstract/?doi=javaa.2013.181.185
I'm using Jarrow lactoferrin. I confirmed with the company that it is bovine lactoferrin. I order it from Amazon.
If your kitties are adults, the dose is 1/2 a capsule (the capsules are 250mg) twice a day. It can be added to food.
If your kitties are kittens, the dose is half that.
I hope it helps!
