Some of them can be pretty dangerous for not just dogs but humans. I understand you trust your vet but sometimes we have to do a little research ourselves.

I have done much reading on these Chinese herbs especially the Double P II which Cody was prescribed. It is to be used for short term at a low dose, it becomes dangerous when it's used longer at a higher dosage. IMO 11 / 12 days is long enough for me.
In any case, I will not be using the two Chinese herbs he was on, the diarrhea was horrific and scary for me and, affected my pups stomach. I do agree, certain meds don't work for every dog.
He finally just now pooped since 12:30AM , no change, still loose diarrhea,it just drips out of him.
