Hi,
My vet uses what's called homeopathic medicine. If you can locate a vet in your area that utilizes this type of medicine they can help you with alot of the herbal remedies. My one baby Chuckie is a right adrenal that could not be completely removed and she put him on a chinese herbal remedy I think it's called fu-sheng?sp. This has worked wonders for him he's been bald for 2 yrs and now all of asudden he has hair. She has several different things she uses for pain and inflamation after surgery and illness etc.
