Ok, just spoke to my vet about this - even though he thinks chances are small of working, he thinks it is worthy trying. So we will do a 7 day course 2x a day and see what it does. We will postpone the steroids until we finish the diagel. I had already ordered 4, he is checking to see if he has it inhouse, if not I will order more online.Originally Posted by Kody's Mom
I am just throwing this out there--but on a Yahoo forum a breeder was saying he had excellent results with Vitamin B-12 injections for diarrhea. Another breeder said that she had used Diagel (from Revival Animal). It's generally used one time -- syringe with paste -- and
it completely stopped the diarrhea in a cat she was caring for
who supposedly had diarrhea for weeks.
Carolina--maybe you could mention this to your vet and see what he thinks???
Thanks for the tip, hope it works, if it does, it sure will beat steroids!
Only thing is, this stuff is expensive! $12 a dose! So, the instructions say to do a maximum of 5 days, 3x a day... that is 15x12=$180!! The vet said 2x/day for 7 days, which is almost the same... Whew!
$12 per ml, that stuff is made of what? Gold? And that is the cheapest place I found... at my vet it would probably be around $20 a pop.
