We had never heard of it until a month ago. Gizmo has had bad allergy problems since he was a baby. We have gone round and round trying unsuccessfully to find a good treatment for him.
A month ago our vet suggested we try this product and it seems to be working. We have now gone 2-1/2 months breakout free! We started with 5mg daily wiped on the inside of his ear. We are now cutting back to 2.75 to see how that goes. Keep working down until he has a breakout, then we know we have to go back up a tad to find his magic dosage. We don't want him getting more than he needs, but enough to maintain him not breaking out, itching and becoming raw and inflamed, necessitating an anti biotic.
We also found out that with the shots he was getting about every 6 weeks (20mg per shot) he was heading toward diabetes. We switched his food to Hills Prescription WD for glucose management, administered meds daily and he levels are back to normal in a month.
After 6 years, we might be on the right road!
Has anyone used this? What experiences have you had with it long or short term?
