Hi there! I'm honestly not sure - the version I had was a liquid that a local pharmacy set up for me

Yes they did, the vet actually ordered the prescription through them

...cell count (less likely for it to be cancer) Bad: liver level high (2,323 AST vs 60), uric acid high (34.3 vs 10) The doctor recommended milk thistle so I’ve been giving him 1 drop a day since. I also started giving him silkworms every feeding to help him poop. Also, I noticed that his neck...

I'm still giving his meds 2x a day. I think he may like the apple flavor of the milk thistle. He kind of pauses and smacks his mouth together after I give him that supplement. He has two more weeks of treatment and then bloodwork.

Got great news today. Yoda's blood work is much better. Still indicates some inflammation so Dr. Bruce is having me continue on with the milk thistle supplement. We'll do a recheck in three months. Interestingly his weight went up when he was in the height of his infection and it's back down...

Is Dr. Bruce sure it’s an infection? Has he checked for Cirrhosis?
