Subject: Re: [Ferret-Health-list] High glucose/Chromium

Sorry I cannot remember the name of the person
who asked for a dose for chromium to help lower
a high blood glucose post surgery (or post pred).
A suggested dose is 10 to 20mcg/kg 2 times a day
or 1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon of Brewer's yeast 2 times daily.
Again this is for ferrets with a high blood glucose and NOT
for ferrets with insulinomas.
