At NHV we believe in taking an integrative approach to your pet's health— which means combining alternative therapies like acupuncture, nutritional therapies and supplements with conventional medications to facilitate healing.
However, we understand that many pet parents prefer to use only natural supplements. We strongly advise consulting your veterinarian and working with them to determine the best course of action for your pet.
If your pet is currently on pharmaceuticals, and you and your vet have determined that you would like to try natural supplements only, we recommend the following for weaning a pet off a pharmaceutical and on to a supplement:
Always consult your veterinarian for guidance in weaning off of pharmaceutical medications, as some medications may require a strict weaning regimen for safety.
Always check with your vet when using pharmaceuticals along with supplements.
