Hi everyone. Amethyst has been on Gabapentin for 3 years now. I feel it is not helping her at all. I was wondering what another good choice would be??? It has to be an injectable or liquid, because she spits pills out:arghh: Thank you:bighug::bighug::bighug::bighug::bighug::bighug:
 
I was using Glucosamine Plus for Pets from Vitamin World. I would open the capsule and sprinkle some of the powder on their food. It expired 1/19 and I tried to use it a few days ago, but the cats wouldn't eat the food. I'm not sure if it ever worked or not. I'll try some of your recommendations for my 2 senior ladies.
 
My kitties don't seem to mind bonita flakes on their food. I still have 2 bottles of Azmira Holistic Animal Care in my fridge. It's a liquid and they don't seem to mind a couple drops on their food. Oh hey! I just read the label and it's made here in Tucson! One is Yucca Intensive and the bottle my friend gave me is called Kidni Flow and contains a bunch of herbs. I used to use L-lysine once, but there is one ingredient that you can't give cats in some formulations. Looking through my cabinet, I found Zobaline for Diabetic Cats with an expiration date of 1/2020, so I think I'll use that up, and Zychrome, which I haven't even opened, expiration date 12/18. It's made from chromium and it doesn't say if it's for pets or humans. Any advise on these?

The bottles last longer than the manufacturer says. My cat Emily's first bottle lasted 3 months or so? It's a small dose, so one bottle lasts quite a while. And after you get past the loading doses, the bottle lasts even longer. Emily's been on it since March and we're still working through her second bottle; and her maintenance dose is twice a month while most cats do once a month for maintenance.

It's been very helpful for her.

Are they safe past expiration? I used mine a year and didn't realize it expired in July so had to scramble for a new vial.
