Re: New EPI Diagnosis - Feeling Overwhelmed...

Re: New EPI dog
Hi again! So for the B12 you should be giving 1/2 capsule 1x a day. If you've been on the slippery elm for 9 days and haven't seen a great improvement I would keep giving it as you make a different change because we say only make one change at a time and slippery elm is relatively inexpensive. What ...

Re: New EPI dog

There are four cornerstones to properly managing EPI: Enzymes: As Pam said, most of us use EnzymeDiane (I recommend starting with the Pancreatin 6x as it is easier to tweak as it is 1 level tsp per cup of kibble)....

Re: Homemade recipes for gsd with epi? Recent b12 set back..
Hi Taryn. I'm so sorry your pup had a set back - it happens unfortunately. Like Jean said B12 supplementing is critical to properly managing EPI. Unfortunately it sounds like without the B12 the SID flared up. We don't recommend using metronidazole - please ask your vet for a prescription for Tylan ...
