I have 2 ferrets on Melatonin. I give them both .75 ml. The first one -
Skittles - is responding to a combination of Melatonin and Arimidex. She
has had adrenal surgery but did not recover from her enlarged vulva,
discharge, or hair loss until we added Melatonin to the Arimidex and stopped
Lupron. She's been on that dose of Melatonin for several months. She weighs
about 1.9 or 2.0 lbs. We have just stopped Lupron and started Melatonin and
Arimidex with the second one because we have had such good results with
Skittles. Hope this helps.
Janice, mother of Dinky (Insulinomic and former Adrenal Disease),
Skittles (right adrenal involved -was surgically debulked but no symptom
reduction with post-operative Lupron), and Baby Girl (Adrenal disease - has
had surgery; symptoms recurred - no response to Lupron).
