then why is this drug handed out like treats with no instruction or information to client like was in this case here - i doubt the vet discussed side effects, etc to owner just like the vet did not with me and this is a vet that teaches around the country as well that got my dog sick - he swore to me it was safe and it was NOT and my dog was very sick from this - i know you have a good vet but sadly not everyone does
also when something goes wrong they are stumped. I disagree many times they listen to the pharmaceutical reps without doing their own research and many do not even hand out the client sheet which is what is suppose to happen.
