Well, all I can say is that I have read it in Kirk's Veterinary Therapy and it DOES help CT pups! It was written there for just that purpose!

Yes, it is for diarrhea, but many meds are used for purposes other than what they were originally marketed for. This is very common.

I am sorry your vet would say something like that without looking into this. I have seen it work for pups who had problems breathing...one of them in my home and another at a friend's home.

Is it a magical cure? No. It is just another med that is used to help with the symptoms of this horrible condition.
