    thinking of starting my kitty on Milk Thistle as it was suggested to me from a a few sources to do so to help w possible liver issues, cuz he supposedly might have some due to high liver enzymes.. (to see more of what was going on outside of bloodwork was to get a $600 scan.. terrible. now a bit prohibitive atm.. :()

    he is currently also on Revolution for any bugs, a Proviable probiotic, and also Nordic Naturals fish oil.. if anyone might have some knowledge/idea if all these things are ok to take together.. plz lmk.

    would space them out in between shots (also on Lantus..)

    will be consulting a few places to see also what they say.. :bookworm: thinking of universities, etc. maybe manufacturers..

    (and so glad to hear Proviable is ok! didnt realize that probiotics could have carbs in there….. makes sense. :facepalm:…..)

    You might want to see if there's a reputable holistic vet in your area. I suspect that most university based clinics don't focus on supplements. The manufacturers are likely going to give you a good deal of PR vs science.

    If you're going to call a vet school or university, remember, they are likely on summer break.
