You can get Denosyl 90mg or S-Adenosyl-100... Denosyl requires a prescription but the S-Adenosyl-100 does not. It's basically the same thing, but the s-adenosyl-100 also contains supplements that are very beneficial to the liver such as sam-e, milk thistle, zinc, l-taurine, b-complex, etc. I give my yorkie the s-adenosyl-100. You can order it from amazon.com or petfoodsdirect.com It helps to prevent further damage to the liver and it helps protect it.

If you give your baby the s-adenosyl-100, then you do not need to give the milk thistle because the milk thistle is already in that pill. BUT if you just give Sam-E or Denosyl, then you could give milk thistle as well as it also helps to repair damage to the liver and keeps it from further damage.

Milk thistle and sam-e can be purchased at any drugstore or health food store. They are supplements....Remember, about 1/4 of the human dose. I don't know the size of your girl. But that's generally the rule of thumb

Denosyl can be purchased online with a prescription from your vet.
