Gastriplex and IBS

Question:

Hello,

My 90 lb dog has been on the recommended dosage of Gastriplex for about 1 and a half months. My vet put him on it because he suffers from IBS. He has developed a nail bed infection and now another paw is irritated. He has never had any problems with his paws before. Could this be an allergic reaction to Gastriplex? Please let me know your thoughts!
Thank you.
Helen

Response:

Hello Helen,
Thank you for your inquiry to Holistic Pet Info. There shouldn’t be a connection with the Gastriplex and the nail bed infection. If you are concerned about an association, you may change the supplement to rule this possibility out.

Vetri-Probiotics BD by Vetri-Science is an excellent supplement that also contains digestive enzymes and additional probiotics. Have you discussed with your vet a diet change to a limited ingredient or home cooked diet? Nutrition is a major component to help keep gastrointestinal diseases properly managed. Best of luck.
Sincerely,
Colleen Smith DVM, CVA
