If your Vet is recommending the Lactulose, than I think you should give it. You can ask your Vet to write you a Rx and get it filled at Walmart or Costco, as it is much cheaper and you get a bigger bottle.

Yes, I like the Nutramax company.
I will definitely monitor her closely on the K/D - she was eating the L/D (canned) fine, so with eating she didn't have a problem (at least once we switched her from Eukanuba when we found out she had liver issues.) Thanks for the tip on getting a Rx for the Lactulose
