Since Enzyme Diane is out, I have an abundant stock of PancrePlus tablets. I feed Kahluah 3 times a day, 2 cups per feeding.
Is the dose 1 tablet per cup of food? But I’ve also read 2-3 per feeding? I’ve not really had to use the tablets since Diane is a life saver!
This will get me by until she’s back in stock though.
Thanks
Jennie and Kahluah

Hi
We say one for each cup and one for the bowl you may need to adjust this and you crush them and teat them like the powder this seems to have given the best results.

Hello! We have been using PancreaPlus tablets since the beginning of our dogs' diagnosis (9 years and counting). We have found that 1 tablet per cup plus one for the bowl (so 3 tabs for 2 cups food) is a good starting point....however as dogs age they need more enzymes (whether tablet or powder) so our 12 year old dog is up to 5 tablets for a bit more than 2 cups of food. It is REALLY important to crush the tablets first, add a little water, stir, let sit for a few minutes (we are about 8 minutes) and serve. Hope this helps.

So glad the PancrePlus users chimed in with their very clear directions. Perfect!

And Kahluah is gorgeous. Thank you for sharing that picture emanating pure joy.

Your pup is gorgeous and you've been given the correct dosing instructions for the tablets. I believe Enzyme Diane has enzymes in stock now - unfortunately there were issues with the manufacturer beyond her control.

Hello,

New to the forum and new to EPI treatments for our dog. The recommended dosage here is not what our vet recommended. I haven’t had a lot of faith in what we’ve been told to give her. She lost 43 pounds in the beginning (German shepherd). We were told to give her 2/3 of a tablet with each meal. We decided to give her one tablet since cutting off 1/3 of a tablet is near impossible and just yields waste of the medicine. However, I have never felt like this dosage was right so I appreciate the new recommendations here. I have a follow up question. We have been mixing wet dog food with her dry dog food to help her gain weight. If I am adding a cup of wet dog food to her 2 cups of dry dog food, is it OK to give her four tablets? One per cup of food plus one for the bowl? I want to make sure I don’t give her too much and create side affects. Since she has started back in February she has gained 15 pounds but appears to be losing weight again. Also, do you recommend daily probiotics? Thank you.

THE rule of thumb is 1 per cup of food plus one for the bowl for the tablets

Thank you.
Do you have any links you can share about dosage? I’d like to show my vet since they don’t seem to have much experience with the tablets. They’re always pushing the powder. I had to fight to get them to approve the tablets. Thanks again.
