How often do you feed a dog this? Can you give this,say once a week,for preventative reasons..Or,do you just give it when they have diarrhea?..My Yorkie has a very sensitive stomach and the vet has to give us this once about every 6 months.?
-
Clinical studies for the treatment or prevention of diarrhea with probiotics in veterinary medicine are lacking in general. Most data on prevention and treatment is taken from human clinical studies. Probiotic studies, of varying quality, that have been conducted in cats and dogs show promise in shortening the duration of diarrhea. If the diarrhea appears to be stress related (relates to training, home environment change, etc.), preventative therapy a few weeks ahead of the stress inducing event may be beneficial for your pet. Long-term administration of probiotics for chronic diseases causing diarrhea may also be necessary. For this reason, it is important to consult with your pet’s veterinarian before determining the best treatment option and duration. 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

Can Fortiflora be given to a diabetic, mega-colon, old cat???
-
There are reported cases of cats with diabetes using FortiFlora and not having any adverse events. The only contraindication for using FortiFlora in a pet would be if their immune system is severely compromised. For further information on FortiFlora in you cat contact your cat's veterinarian.
