Can FortiFlora be given with Tylan powder??
-
FortiFlora can be given to balance a dog's digestive system, reducing stomach upset and diarrhea. FortiFlora may help dogs while they are taking antibiotics like Tylan powder, as antibiotics could potentially cause loose stools or diarrhea. There are no known drug interactions between these two products, so they may be given together. Thank you, VetRxDirect

HI, I have a math question. For one box of FortiFlora it is $23.99. Your ad says if you buy three boxes you will save $36.84. My trusty calculator tells me 3 times $23.99 = $71.97. I'm only seeing a savings of $4.48. Can you explain? Thanks, Susan?
-
Susan, The ‘Save $36.84’ that you see is showing you a savings over the average price available on the internet for a particular item. The savings we have offered for purchasing a larger quantity (a package of 3 or 6 boxes) is not calculated from the average savings, it is a savings we offer for the higher quantity purchase. We hope that helps take some of the confusion out of the numbers! Thank you, VetRxDirect

My kitten has terrible gas!! The vet says she is perfectly healthy, possibly just is overly sensitive and I diligently avoid ANY food/treats with grains. Could this possibly help? (It doesn't seem to bother HER-it just chases ME out of the room!)?
-
FortiFlora is a nutritional supplement that contains probiotics and antioxidants to help support a healthy GI tract, but the manufacturer has not studied the supplement specifically on reducing gas in cats and dogs. However, since this supplement helps with promoting intestinal health there is a possibility that it may help with reducing gas. Thank you, VetRxDirect

have a rescue puppy and they gave us fortiflora to use but the packet is for feline..can puppy use this or do need one for canine/?
-
Belle, The FortiFlora feline and canine products contain the same ratio of nutritional components such as protein, fat, and fiber as well as the same inactive ingredients. Also, the same microorganism, Enterococcus faecium, is used at the same concentration for both products. The two FortiFlora products appear to be the same based on the information provided by the manufacturer. Your puppy's veterinarian may have additional information on the product so we do recommend contacting him or her for further advice. Thank you, VetRxDirect
