Question
Have 85 lb mixed lab, with epilepitcus seizures, on pheno barb, triple bromide solution,bcomplex,milk thistle and lecithin. Feed him duck and potato. he has been very itchy, any ideas?

Answer
Sure--with all of those meds, you need to have him on a probiotic (and not just any ole probiotic either), digestive enzyme and some fish oil for the itching. The probiotic and the fish oil should help over time. If his itching is increasing, then check out his diet and determine if you need to do an elimination diet to dig out the source of the itching. If you want more info on the supplements you need to use, please ask. Get him some Omega 3 and 6 oil from the health food and start adding it to his food..not too much--read the bottle and adjust, ok? Good Luck to you, Sue
